Great to meet you!

You already know something needs to change. You've just been waiting to feel ready. I work with people across the full span of life, from young children and adolescents to adults and seniors, and I specialize in anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, and relationship struggles. If you're experiencing symptoms that are getting in the way of living the life you want, and you're willing to put in the work, I'm here for it.

My approach to therapy

In our sessions, we focus on changing both the way you think and the way you act, because real progress tends to require both. We don't just talk about what is wrong. We talk about what change would actually look like for you, and we build a realistic path toward it together. Therapy is uncomfortable. Change is uncomfortable. But you do not have to navigate either one alone. I work best with people who are honest with themselves, willing to do the work between sessions, and open to being challenged in a direct but supportive way.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is mostly a conversation. You share what has been going on, I listen, and we figure out together whether we are a good fit and what we want to work on. You do not need to have it all sorted out before you show up. If you are ready to take that first step, reach out and let's talk.
