Helping Students and Professionals Navigate Life's Pressures​

Life isn’t always easy. For students, academic pressure and uncertainty about the future can feel overwhelming. For professionals, demanding careers and personal responsibilities can leave little room to breathe. Whether you’re navigating career challenges, managing academic stress, or balancing the demands of everyday life, I provide a supportive space to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

Inspiring Growth, Building Resilience

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in perfectionism, or constantly anxious about what’s next, you don’t have to manage it alone. In therapy, we’ll focus on practical tools and deeper self-understanding so you can quiet worry, shift unhelpful patterns, and move forward with greater balance.

 

You don’t need to have everything figured out before reaching out. This is a space to explore what’s working, untangle what feels heavy, and build strategies that support your goals. Together, we’ll work toward helping you show up to school, work, and relationships with more confidence and clarity.
