No one really fully prepares us for our transition into adulthood.

Your late teens and twenties can come with a ridiculous amount of change all at once.

School. Work. Relationships. Friendships. Family. Money. Independence. Identity. Decisions about what comes next—and the uncomfortable realization that apparently you’re the adult now.

You might feel excited about what’s ahead and completely overwhelmed by it at the same time. Maybe you’re anxious, depressed, stuck, unsure of yourself, struggling in relationships, questioning what you want, or comparing yourself to everyone who seems like they’re somehow doing adulthood better than you are.

You’re allowed to still be figuring it out.

So much is happening in this stage of life.

Maybe you’re starting college, finishing school, entering the workforce, changing directions, living on your own for the first time, moving back home, navigating friendships or dating, or trying to figure out who you are outside of everyone else’s expectations.

Sometimes it can feel like everyone is asking, “What are you going to do with your life?” when you’re still trying to figure out what you want your life to look like.

Therapy can give you a place to slow things down, sort through what’s happening, understand yourself better, and figure out what actually works for you.

We can work together on things like anxiety and overthinking, depression, ADHD and executive functioning challenges, stress and overwhelm, relationships, friendships, family dynamics, self-esteem, identity, school and career concerns, boundaries, trauma, independence, and life transitions.

You don’t need to know exactly what you want from therapy before you start.

Sometimes “I have no idea what I’m doing” is a perfectly reasonable place to begin.

Therapy with me

Therapy doesn’t have to be another place where an adult tells you what you should be doing.

I’m not here to hand you a blueprint for your life or tell you who you’re supposed to become. We can get curious together about what’s working, what isn’t, what keeps showing up, and what matters to you.

You can bring the serious stuff, the awkward stuff, the confusing stuff, the thing you’ve been overthinking for three days, or the thing you’re not even sure is “important enough” to talk about.

It’s your space.

Together, we can build on the strengths and insight you already have while developing tools that actually make sense for your life. That might mean learning ways to manage anxiety or overwhelming emotions, understanding patterns in relationships, building confidence, setting boundaries, navigating transitions, or figuring out how to move forward when you feel stuck.

You don’t need to become some perfectly put-together version of yourself.

The goal is to understand yourself better, trust yourself more, and build a life that feels more like yours.
