Great to meet you!

I am a licensed therapist with over 20 years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, OCD, and chronic stress. I specialize in supporting professionals in high-demand careers (creatives, entertainment industry professionals, attorneys, tech experts, educators, and healthcare workers) who often feel the tension between outward success and inner self-doubt. My approach is practical, down-to-earth, and collaborative, shaped by years of experience across hospitals, corporate environments, correctional systems, and private practice. I aim to provide a safe, structured space where clients feel understood and empowered.

My approach to therapy

I combine Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) to help clients identify and change the patterns that fuel anxiety and obsessive thinking. I focus on teaching practical tools that clients can apply immediately to manage intrusive thoughts, regulate emotions, and respond differently to challenging situations. Therapy with me is interactive, grounded, and tailored to the client’s life and career demands, ensuring strategies are not only effective but sustainable.

What you can expect from me

During the first session, we’ll take time to understand your goals, challenges, and current coping strategies. I will explain how therapy works and outline a plan that fits your needs and schedule. Together, we’ll identify patterns that may be contributing to anxiety or stress, and you’ll leave with actionable strategies you can start using right away. The first session is also an opportunity to see if my style is a good fit, so you feel comfortable, supported, and confident in taking the next steps.
