Great to meet you!

I work with adults 18+ who are dealing with ADHD, anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, life transitions, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and substance use or recovery. Whether you’re exploring harm reduction, relapse prevention, or healthier ways to cope, I’m here to support you.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative, practical, and compassionate. I want therapy to feel like a space where you feel heard, respected, and understood, especially if that hasn’t always been your experience. I often use CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed care to help you build insight and make meaningful changes.

What you can expect from me

I’m committed to creating an affirming, safe, and open space for all clients, including members of the LGBTQ+ community. Whether you’re looking for support with a specific challenge or hoping for deeper personal growth, we’ll work together to set goals that feel meaningful, realistic, and right for you.
