Many of the students I work with feel like they’re carrying more than what shows on the outside. Between school, family expectations, friendships, and figuring out who they are, it can feel like there’s never enough space to just breathe. Some describe feeling anxious, weighed down, or stuck between different parts of their life; like they’re trying to hold it all together but don’t always know how.

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. I work especially well with students who:
◦ Feel pressure to succeed academically while juggling family or cultural expectations
◦ Notice anxiety or low moods making it harder to focus or enjoy daily life
◦ Struggle with relationships, whether that’s family, friends, or dating
◦ Are first-generation, or navigating life between more than one culture
◦ Want a space that feels supportive, flexible, and understanding

Therapy with me is about having someone on your side who understands those layers. We’ll take it step by step, focusing on what matters most to you so you can feel steadier, less weighed down, and more like yourself again.
