Great to meet you!

If you're the friend everyone calls for advice but you're falling apart on the inside, the one who looks fine, performs fine, keeps it together in every group chat and every meeting, I work with you. Anxiety that doesn't show on the outside. Burnout you can't admit to. A relationship, breakup, or career shift that cracked something open. I've spent years in acute care settings sitting with people at their most vulnerable moments. I've learned throughout the years surface-level conversations don't get us anywhere, let's dive in to the root of the issue.

My approach to therapy

No circling the same problem for six months. I use CBT and CPT, but sessions are built around what's actually happening in your week, not a script. Some weeks we're untangling why you can't turn your brain off at night. Other weeks we're figuring out why you keep abandoning yourself in relationships or at work. You'll leave with something to use, every time.

What you can expect from me

Session one, I'm not just taking notes and nodding along for 50 minutes, I actually want to know you. We'll figure out together what's going on and whether I'm the right person to help you through it. If I'm not, I'll tell you. If I am, we start building a real plan that day. Either way, showing up here already says something about you. That counts for a lot.
