Great to meet you!

I run Unscripted Therapy, a practice focused on helping people break out of stuck patters.

I work with individuals who are tired of having the same conversations and somehow ending up right back where they started. Whether it’s anxiety, stress, or relationship patterns that keep repeating, something isn’t working—and at this point, that’s pretty clear.

My approach is direct, collaborative, and focused on actually changing what’s not working. I’m not going to just sit there nodding while you vent and then ask how that made you feel for the tenth time. We’ll figure out what’s keeping you stuck and start doing something different about it.

Therapy with me is honest, practical, and yes—sometimes a little blunt. But it’s also real. If you’re looking for something that actually helps you move forward (not just talk about why you’re stuck), we’ll probably be a good fit.

Please note: Insurance is accepted for individual therapy only. Couples and family therapy are private pay and are not billed through insurance.

My approach to therapy

One of my biggest strengths is being direct. I’ll help you identify what’s holding you back and be direct about it—without making you feel judged or shamed.

I’m also good at helping people feel comfortable pretty quickly. You won’t feel like you’re being analyzed or talked down to—we’ll just have real conversations about what’s going on.

I’ve seen these patterns enough to spot them pretty quickly, and once we do, we don’t just talk about them—we figure out what to do differently.

I’ll be real with you, but it won’t feel like you’re getting called out every five minutes. You’ll feel understood, and you’ll also leave with something you can actually use instead of wondering what the point of the session was.

What you can expect from me

I want all my clients to leave the first session with something new they can try that they haven't tried yet.
