In my practice, I offer a compassionate, collaborative space where you can explore your story, reconnect with your strengths, and create your own path forward. I believe healing happens when we feel seen, supported, and empowered—and my role is to walk alongside you as a guide, not to lead, but to help you uncover your own way. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, life transitions, grief, or feeling stuck, you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to support your growth with warmth, curiosity, and care.
