Great to meet you!

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, sleep difficulties such as narcolepsy, idiopathic hypersomnia, insomnia, panic, and stress-related concerns. I take a warm, holistic approach to care and consider how your mental health, relationships, daily responsibilities, and overall well-being intersect. My goal is to create a space where you can speak openly and feel respected, understood, and involved in decisions about your care.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative, individualized, and grounded in evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I take time to understand what you’re experiencing and what you want to change before developing a treatment plan. When appropriate, care may include medication management, therapy, practical coping strategies, and support for improving sleep, stress, and day-to-day functioning.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is an opportunity to understand your concerns, mental health history, current symptoms, and goals for treatment. We’ll talk through what has been affecting you and what you hope to get from care. From there, we’ll identify the most appropriate next steps and create a treatment plan that fits your needs, whether that includes medication management, therapy, or a combination of approaches.
