Great to meet you!

Life can feel like a lot sometimes. Maybe you brain has 37 tabs open, your to-do list keeps growing, or anxiety convinces you to overthink even the smallest decisions. Maybe you know what you want to do, but getting started feels like a whole different story. If any of this sounds familiar, you're in the right place!

My approach to therapy

I'm a warm, down-to-earth therapist who believes that therapy should feel like a space where you can show up exactly as you are- messy thoughts, big feelings, awkward moments and all! I specialize in working with individuals with ADHD and Anxiety, helping them to better understand themselves and gain tools to get through life's daily challenges.

What you can expect from me

My approach combines empathy, humor and realistic, achievable goals. I'm not here to tell you to make a to-do list or try harder. Instead, we will work together to figure out what's getting in your way, celebrate the progress and find strategies that feel manageable and meaningful to you! You just have to show up and take things one step at a time.
