🌀

Anxiety

Anxiety can show up as constant worry, restlessness, or physical tension that disrupts your everyday life[2]. Whether it's general anxiety, panic attacks, or social anxiety, I help you understand the root causes and develop tools to manage and reduce your distress.

🌧️

Depression

Depression often brings persistent sadness, low motivation, or a sense of hopelessness[3]. If you're feeling emotionally numb or disconnected from things you once enjoyed, therapy offers a space to unpack those feelings and begin the journey toward healing.

Body Image Issues

Struggles with body image can affect your confidence and self-worth[4]. Together, we’ll explore how societal messages have shaped your self-perception, and work toward a healthier, more compassionate relationship with your body.

🧬

Gender and Sexual Identity

Exploring your gender or sexual identity can be empowering—but also confusing or isolating without support[5]. I provide an affirming space to unpack identity questions, challenge internalized shame, and celebrate your authentic self.

💞

Relationship Challenges

Relationship issues can cause tension, loneliness, and emotional pain[6]. Whether it's conflict, communication problems, or attachment wounds, I help individuals strengthen their relationships while honoring their own boundaries and needs.

🌟

Self-Esteem

If you struggle to feel worthy, capable, or confident, you're not alone. Therapy offers a path to better understand your inner critic, challenge negative beliefs, and rebuild your self-esteem from the inside out.

🛡️

Trauma and Abuse Recovery

Healing from trauma takes time, care, and support[7]. Whether you're recovering from emotional, physical, or sexual abuse, I offer a safe, trauma-informed space where your story is heard and your healing is respected.

🔋

Stress and Burnout

When life's pressures become too much, you may feel exhausted, irritable, or disconnected. Therapy can help you identify the causes of stress, restore balance, and build boundaries that protect your emotional energy.

🛤️

Life Transitions

Major life changes—like a breakup, job loss, move, or becoming a parent—can feel disorienting. I help you navigate these transitions with clarity, emotional support, and tools for adaptation and growth.

LGBTQ+ Affirming Support

I offer culturally sensitive and affirming therapy for LGBTQ+ individuals navigating identity, coming out, or coping with minority stress. My practice is inclusive, nonjudgmental, and rooted in respect for your lived experience.

  • ❤️ Healthy Communication: Saying What You Mean, Gently

    ❤️ Relationships & Boundaries

    Speaking Clearly Without Harm

    Healthy communication isn't about being “nice” or “right”-it's about being honest, respectful, and clear. Many of us were never taught how to express our needs without fear or guilt.

    Use “I” Statements

    Instead of blaming or accusing, try starting with “I feel…” or “I need…” This keeps the conversation focused on your experience and encourages collaboration, not defensiveness.

    Therapy Helps You Practice

    Therapy provides a safe space to explore communication patterns and build confidence in expressing yourself clearly and kindly.
