Great to meet you!

Maybe you’re doing your best to keep everything together, but inside you may feel anxious, overwhelmed, scattered, frustrated, or unsure of yourself. You may find yourself overthinking decisions, struggling to follow through on things you know you need to do, questioning yourself in relationships, or noticing the same patterns showing up even when you understand them.

I work with adults and young adults navigating anxiety, ADHD, stress and overwhelm, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Many of my clients already have some insight into what they’re struggling with, but want help understanding why certain patterns keep showing up and how to actually change them.

You may be looking for support with quieting an overwhelmed mind, feeling more confident in your decisions, trusting yourself more, understanding your emotions and needs, setting healthier boundaries, or creating routines and habits that feel realistic and sustainable.

You don’t have to know exactly what you need or where to begin. We can figure that out together.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm, collaborative, practical, and engaged. I believe therapy should help you better understand yourself while also giving you tools and perspectives you can use in everyday life.

Together, we’ll look at the thoughts, emotions, experiences, and patterns that may be contributing to how you’re feeling. We may explore how anxiety, ADHD, self-criticism, and relationship experiences influence the way you respond to stress, make decisions, connect with others, and see yourself.

I draw from CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness, strengths-based therapy, and solution-focused approaches, tailoring our work to what feels most helpful for you. When ADHD or executive functioning challenges are part of the picture, we may also work on organization, motivation, emotional regulation, routines, task initiation, and follow-through.

Therapy with me isn’t only about learning coping skills. It’s also about developing greater self-awareness, self-compassion, confidence, and trust in yourself so the changes you make feel meaningful and sustainable.

What you can expect from me

You can expect me to be warm, encouraging, curious, and actively engaged in our work together. I’ll listen without judgment, but I won’t simply sit back and leave you to figure everything out on your own.

I’ll offer new perspectives and practical tools while supporting you in taking an active role in creating meaningful changes in your everyday life.

Some sessions may involve deeper reflection and understanding where certain patterns come from. Others may be more practical and focus on problem-solving, coping strategies, communication, boundaries, or what may help you feel less overwhelmed.

There is also room for humor, honesty, difficult emotions, and simply having a place to process when life feels heavy.

My goal is for you to leave therapy with a clearer understanding of yourself, stronger trust in your own abilities and decisions, and greater confidence in navigating the challenges that come your way.
