Do you spend a lot of time trying to think your way through problems, but find that approach doesn't always work when it comes to emotions, relationships, or stress?

I specialize in working with engineers, analytical thinkers, neurodivergent adults, and high-achieving college students who want to better understand themselves and develop strategies that actually fit how they think and operate. As the co-author of Decompile Your Mind: An Engineer's Guide to Thoughts and Emotions, I've developed a particular interest in helping analytical people make sense of the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

I believe therapy works best when it feels like a partnership. I'm compassionate, curious, and direct, and I tailor therapy to your goals rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach. Together, we'll identify patterns that may be getting in your way, make sense of what's happening, and develop practical strategies for moving forward.

Therapy doesn't require you to have everything figured out before you begin. You don't even need to know exactly what you need help with. We'll start by getting to know one another and understanding what's bringing you to therapy.

I want you to leave sessions with greater clarity about yourself and, when helpful, something concrete you can take into your life between sessions. My goal is for therapy to feel like a space where you can be both understood and challenged—without having to perform, have all the answers, or figure everything out on your own.
