You don’t need another therapist to nod politely while you spiral in circles. You need someone who sees through the chaos, grounds you, and calls you back to yourself.
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over a decade of experience. Clients come to me when anxiety has taken the wheel, burnout has drained their fire, or when they’re stuck in the relentless loop of “What am I doing with my life?” Together, we cut through confusion and return to clarity, purpose, and steadiness.
My approach is holistic and practical. Therapy with me isn’t just talk—it’s embodied, real, and tailored to you. As a certified health coach and yoga teacher, I weave in mind-body practices: breathwork, nature-inspired tools, sustainable self-care, and strengths-based strategies. We focus not just on what hurts, but on what already works—so you move from surviving to thriving.
I believe stress and anxiety aren’t defects to fix. They’re signals pointing to what’s out of alignment. With the right tools and support, you can learn to listen to those signals, work with them, and grow stronger because of them.
What I share isn’t theory—it’s what I practice: mindful nutrition and movement, meditation, time in nature, and intentional rituals that root me. I know the difference these tools can make, because I live them.
Outside of sessions, you’ll often find me exploring—sometimes a mountain weekend reset, sometimes traveling across the globe to visit family in Poland. I come alive in the simple things: quality time with family, hiking adventures with my beloved pup, sunbathing on the coast, tending my garden, practicing archery, or perfecting the little magic of a well-crafted cup of coffee. These grounding practices remind me of the beauty in slowing down, which also shapes the way I approach therapy.
