Great to meet you!

Having been in therapy myself, I've experienced firsthand its positive impact, helping me overcome my anxiety and equipping me with practical tools I still use today. I understand that repeatedly answering 'How does that make you feel?' can be frustrating. Drawing from my personal experience both as a therapy client and practitioner in a treatment center setting, I bring energy into my sessions and build momentum to help clients get unstuck and face their Anxiety & OCD with confidence.

My approach to therapy

I integrate ACT, CBT, MBT, and DBT (lots of acronyms I know) to help my clients learn how to accept themselves and where they are in life, let go of the burden of fighting against their thoughts and feelings, and to find ways to help them create a new future for themselves, one that isn't burdened by 'I should' , 'I cant', or 'Yes, but' and is instead filled with 'I want to' , 'I can', and 'I will'.

What you can expect from me

In our sessions, you can expect to gain practical tools to manage anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and depression, develop a deeper understanding of your thoughts and feelings, and improve your ability to navigate life's challenges. By working with me, you'll learn to get unstuck, move out of your head, and fully engage in your life. I help bridge the gap between discussion and action through tailored therapeutic assignments that give you direction and a way to practice your skills in your own life.
