Hi there, I'm Valerie!
I work with adults managing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, addiction, and chronic medical conditions. My style is supportive, practical, and focused on building real change. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a true partnership—where you feel heard, respected, and encouraged.
My focus
My ideal client is someone feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready for change—even if they're not sure what that looks like yet. I work best with adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns, addiction, self-esteem issues, or chronic health challenges who are open to exploring new ways of understanding themselves.
My approach
I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation, not a clinical checklist. My approach is person-centered, meaning we'll work together to find what fits you best—your goals, your pace, your way of seeing the world. I pull from different evidence-based therapies depending on what you need.
