Therapy for Anxiety, Burnout & a Strong Inner Critic
You’re probably here because you feel overwhelmed, stuck in self-doubt, or exhausted from carrying everything on your own.
Therapy with me helps you shift from surviving to feeling genuinely equipped, calmer, and more confident.
If you tend to overthink or carry a harsh inner voice, chances are you’ve been holding a lot for a long time—stress, grief, transitions, relational pain.
You may long to be known more fully, but also feel the instinct to protect and hide parts of yourself, because vulnerability still feels like a risk.
That tension—the desire to be truly seen and the fear of what might happen if you are—is something we’ll approach together with care and respect.
You don’t have to carry it alone
In therapy with me, we’ll explore the patterns that keep you stuck - without judgment. You’ll learn practical tools and self-compassion skills that help you:
• notice and soften your inner critic
• build stronger emotional balance
• make aligned choices that feel genuine
• feel steadier in relationships, work, and daily life
With greater self-compassion, clients often experience:
More resilience in the face of challenges
Reduced self-criticism and increased self-trust
Healthier relationships, rooted in self-worth
A gentler, more accepting relationship with themselves
The confidence to make aligned, empowered choices
Sustainable emotional healing—not just quick fixes
I work with individuals navigating:
Anxiety and Chronic Stress
Trauma and PTSD
Depression
Relationship and Dating Challenges
Low Self-Worth or Self-Esteem
People-pleasing and Perfectionism

Therapy is most effective when there’s a strong fit.

Additional Specialties
Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD
I provide Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for individuals living with PTSD, integrating self-compassion throughout the process. CPT is a structured, evidence-based approach that helps you understand how trauma has shaped your thoughts and beliefs—and supports you in developing more balanced, supportive ways of thinking. Together, we work to reduce the distress tied to past experiences and help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and a sense of peace.
Faith & Spirituality Based Therapy
For clients who wish to integrate their faith or spiritual beliefs into therapy, I have specialized training in faith integration and am honored to incorporate this into our work.
Whether your faith is a source of strength, an area of struggle, or something you’re exploring, I offer a respectful and informed approach that supports your values and honors your unique journey.
