Hi there, I'm Chynna!

Life gets heavy sometimes, and you don't have to carry it all by yourself. Grounded in years of real-world clinical experience, I offer a warm, down-to-earth space to untangle what you're going through and find your footing. Whenever you're ready to take that next step, I'd love to connect.

My focus

Struggling with burnout, heavy transitions, or trauma? I work with adults navigating these exact challenges. I set a calm, honest tone where you can let down your guard and share a laugh. Together, we’ll untangle the chaos and build a plan for real relief.

My approach

My approach is practical, collaborative, and refreshingly human. Drawing from extensive crisis and community mental health experience, we will use CBT and mindfulness to quiet unhelpful thoughts, move past survival mode, and build tools for lasting relief.
