Great to meet you!

Do you find yourself overthinking conversations, replaying situations in your head, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed by how mentally exhausting everything feels? I work with adults and teens who struggle with anxiety, depression, and intense emotions, especially those who feel stuck in patterns they can’t seem to break. I have experience working with complex presentations, including individuals with significant mood instability, suicidal thoughts and self-harm history. Therapy with me is collaborative, and focused on helping you understand why your mind reacts the way it does, and how to change it.

My approach to therapy

Our work goes beyond talking about problems. We identify the patterns beneath emotional reactions and practice specific tools to shift them. I integrate CBT, ACT, and DBT informed strategies to help you respond differently in real-time situations, not just understand them.

What you can expect from me

It’s not easy to open up, especially if you’ve been carrying things alone. I work to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and challenged in productive ways. Therapy is a collaborative process, and your voice matters throughout. If you feel we may be a good fit, please reach out.
