Great to meet you!

I work with people who navigate addiction, anxiety, depression, and struggle with stress management. Many of my clients appear “high-functioning” on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or mentally exhausted on the inside.

My approach to therapy

My approach is direct, compassionate, and collaborative. I believe therapy works best when people feel safe enough to be honest, vulnerable, and human without fear of judgment. I use humor, thoughtful challenge, and real-world application to help you make changes outside of therapy.

What you can expect from me

Our first session will be easy. I will want to know why you've chosen to get therapy and how we can best achieve your goals.
