I’ve always believed that the hardest part of struggling isn’t just the problem itself—it’s feeling alone in it. Growing up, I had to learn how to sit with difficult emotions without many distractions, which highlighted how isolating it can feel when you don’t have support in those moments. This is what led me to become a therapist – it felt like a natural outcome as it allowed me to be that anchor for others—the person who helps make things feel a little less overwhelming, a little less lonely. There’s something truly meaningful about creating a space where someone feels safe enough to be real—perhaps in ways they haven’t been before and thus it’s been my honor to offer that same support to others through my work.
