warm, welcoming, personable, authentic, non-judgmental, empathetic, compassionate, and understanding.

I want to help you understand the root of your fears and worries and then build ways to gradually face them.

We will identify the unhelpful thoughts, sit through the physical and emotional discomfort, and learn that your worst fear may not come true or how to cope and handle it when it happens.

are feeling stuck in a cycle of worrying and getting more caught up in preventing those fears from coming true rather than actually being able to live their lives. My ideal client struggles with intense discomfort (physically and emotionally).

listening to and validating others' emotional struggles are things that I really value. I knew therapy was my calling from a young age.

I take a jump-right-in approach to your struggles, because I want to help you get back to living your life as soon as possible.
