Great to meet you!

Welcome!

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist, specializing in Adult ADHD, ADHD & Neurotypical Couples Therapy as well as creative professionals who are stuck or are craving forward momentum in their lives.

If you’re overwhelmed, burnt out, or just trying to keep your head above water—you don’t have to have it all figured out to start therapy.

My approach to therapy

I tend to be warm, practical, and human first. Early on, this is a place to slow things down, get your bearings, and feel a little less alone in it. No pressure to perform, no expectation that you’ve got it together.

We’ll start by making things feel more manageable—then, when you’re ready and there is trust, we’ll gently (and sometimes directly) start shifting the patterns that keep you stuck.

If you have ADHD, we keep it real: overwhelm, inconsistency, and “I meant to but didn’t” are part of the process—not something to be ashamed of.

Think of this as a place to land first. We’ll build momentum together from there.

What you can expect from me

The first session is a chance to slow things down and get a clear picture of what’s been weighing on you—without pressure to have it all organized. I’ll ask focused questions to understand your past, current patterns, what’s not working, and how you want your life to feel different, while helping you be more grounded in the process. We’ll end with a simple, manageable next step so you leave with direction—not just insight.
