Great to meet you!

I'm a Certified Integrative Mental Health Professional, trained in the environmental and nutritional roots of mental health conditions, as well as EMDR for trauma and stress processing. I'm especially passionate about neurodiversity-affirming care — supporting patients with ADHD, Autism, and sensory or behavioral processing differences.

My approach to therapy

My approach to psychiatric care is integrative — I look at the functional causes behind mental health challenges, from lifestyle and nutrition to chemical imbalances, not just symptoms in isolation. I believe in shared decision-making: treatment should be something we build together, not something prescribed to you. I work with both adults and teens, combining medication management with a whole-person perspective.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is a thorough dive into your health history — going beyond symptoms to understand the fuller picture. I use research-backed assessments to build an accurate, individualized starting point. Most importantly, I want you to leave with hope: your baseline can improve, and we'll work together to get you there.
