Our society is full of unspoken “shoulds.” How we should look. How we should act. How we should parent. What our relationships, careers, and lives should be like. How we should spend our time, our money, our energy. What makes someone a “good enough” partner, parent, or friend.

But what if all these expectations aren’t working for you? What if you want something more — something different? Or maybe you’re just exhausted from trying to do everything “right.”

Living under the weight of these silent pressures can leave you feeling stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed. Often, there’s a lingering sense of dissatisfaction or stress that’s hard to trace but impossible to ignore.

I help clients untangle where these “shoulds” come from and guide you in creating a life rooted in your values, principles, and goals. Her approach is compassionate, curious, and deeply personalized.

With a background in yoga, mindfulness, and meditation prior to becoming a therapist, I bring a holistic and grounded presence to my work. I will integrate practical tools — like breathwork and grounding techniques — to help you manage stress in the moment, while also supporting you in gently questioning long-held beliefs that may be keeping you stuck.

Even if mindfulness or meditation feels unfamiliar — or even a little uncomfortable — I will meet you where you are, making these practices eel safe and non-intimidating. I have a laid back approach to therapy, making sessions feel more like a conversation with a trusted friend — sometimes lighthearted, sometimes emotional, but always genuine.

When I’m not working, I can be found traveling with my family, enjoying time with friends, staying active at the gym or yoga studio, or curled up with a book on my deck.

If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking, “How did I get here?” or “Shouldn’t I feel happier than this?” I will help you explore those questions with compassion and curiosity. Together, we will uncover what truly matters to you and how to move toward a more aligned, fulfilling life.
