I use an authentic, compassionate, and nonjudgmental approach to help people to heal and feel understood.

Ready for a change, or just to feel better? Let's figure it out! I help anxious adults/teens, therapists, entrepreneurs/executives, & adults with ADHD to improve their lives. We'll work on coping skills to decrease anxiety, manage stress, & improve self-esteem. I also enjoy helping folks create boundaries & prevent burnout. I can help you unlearn people-pleasing habits, be more assertive, & heal from difficult relationships. We can also work on things like organization, time management, habits/routines, & procrastination. My practice is inclusive & fully LBGTQIA+ affirming. I offer EMDR for trauma processing as well. My style is authentic, compassionate, & nonjudgmental. I use a customized approach to create a style of therapy that best fits your needs. No two people are alike, and my approach to each person is just as unique. I'm pretty direct (but still empathetic), and I encourage you to be direct with me too. Therapy isn't always serious or difficult - it can actually be a positive and uplifting part of your week. Whenever possible, I try to balance the difficult moments with lightness, humor, & hope. Check out my website for more info, or email if you'd like to work with me!
