Great to meet you!

I work with adults facing ADHD, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, sleep issues, and substance use, offering clear, practical help—no guesswork. You might feel overwhelmed, stuck, have trouble sleeping, or struggle to focus. We follow a structured approach to understand your situation and develop a treatment plan that progresses. I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and focused follow-up using evidence-based and trauma-informed strategies. The process is simple, with clear steps and adjustments based on your progress. If you're ready to proceed, reach out.

My approach to therapy

My approach emphasizes shared decision-making, being thoughtful and practical. I aim to understand the full picture—current symptoms, history, and daily functioning—to create a realistic treatment plan. Care may include medication, psychoeducation, and support coordination. I prioritize clear communication, shared decisions, and evidence-based care.

What you can expect from me

During the first session, expect a calm, structured, respectful conversation. We’ll discuss your concerns, review history, and clarify your goals. Clients usually leave with a clearer understanding of possible causes, treatment options, and next steps. You won’t be rushed or talked down to—just supported with clarity, intention, and professionalism.
