Hi there, I'm Carissa!

I'm a licensed therapist who helps people navigate anxiety, burnout, relationship challenges, and the quiet feeling that something in their life is off. My goal is simple, which is to give you a space where you can finally exhale, be honest, and start feeling like yourself again.

My focus

I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, life transitions, and relationship struggles. Many of my clients are considered highly accomplished but inwardly feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck. If you're holding a lot together and quietly struggling, I would love to walk with you as you navigate this journey.

My approach

I use a trauma-informed, relational approach, meaning I look at not just your symptoms but the deeper patterns and experiences shaping them. Drawing from CBT, attachment-based therapy, and identity work. I listen to you and tailor treatment since it is not a one-size-fits-all protocol. Healing happens in a relationship, and I take that seriously.
