Great to meet you!

I'm a therapist for Millennial and Gen Z women with:

  • ADHD
  • Anxiety
  • Eating disorders
  • Dating and relationships. I help high functioning women and couples in their 20s, 30s,and early 40s feel empowered and confident. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling anxious, burnt out, and overwhelmed and usually after 4 sessions, start to notice progress. After 12 sessions, clients start to feel more focused, clear-headed, and energized, with maximum benefit after 20 sessions.

My approach to therapy

I use a blend of CBT and DBT. What does that mean? That means I look at how the things that happen in our lives affect what we think, how we feel, and how we act, and how to change the thoughts and behavior patterns that are keeping you stuck. As a social worker, I look at how systemic issues affect the lives of Millennial and Gen Z women.

What you can expect from me

The first session is just an opportunity for us to get to know each other better. I believe the therapeutic relationship is the foundation for success in therapy. I'll do a comprehensive assessment so I can get to know your background, struggles, strengths, interests, and vulnerabilities so we can look at how multiple factors contribute to what you're going through. By the end of therapy, you'll have a better understanding of yourself and what you've been through, and tools to navigate day to day life. You'll feel like a huge weight has been lifted off your shoulders and you'll be able to get through life with more clarity. Millennial and Gen Z women; my door is open. Book a 15 minute consult on my calendar to see if we're a match!
