Maybe something shifted — an accident, an injury, a loss, a role you didn’t choose but now carry. Or maybe it’s been a slow accumulation: the weight of holding it together for so long that you’ve started to wonder who you even are underneath it all.

I work with adults navigating the emotional and psychological impact of major life changes — the aftermath of an accident or injury, a significant transition, or the quiet unravelling that happens when life stops looking the way you expected.

My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. I don’t see therapy as fixing you — you’re not broken. What I do is help you slow down enough to understand what’s happening beneath the stress, the overwhelm, or the emotional stuckness. We look at the patterns together: the ones that keep showing up even when you’ve tried hard to change them on your own. And we work with them in a way that feels practical and relevant to your daily life.

I draw from ACT, CBT, CPT, mindfulness-based approaches, and solution-focused therapy — not rigidly, but depending on what each person needs.

If you’ve been the one who holds things together, and you’re noticing the cracks starting to show — you don’t have to figure this out alone.
