If your mind feels like it never turns off constantly worrying, overthinking, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed you’re not alone. Therapy can help you slow down, understand what you're feeling, and begin finding relief.

Reaching out for therapy can feel intimidating, especially if this is your first time. My goal is to create a warm, supportive space where you feel safe talking openly about what you’re going through.

I am currently accepting new clients and offer same-week appointments.

In-network with Horizon BCBS, Aetna, Cigna, and Carelon.

My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and practical. I believe meaningful change happens when people feel genuinely understood and supported.

In our work together, we may focus on:

• Understanding patterns that keep you feeling stuck

• Developing healthier ways to cope with stress and anxiety

• Processing difficult experiences or trauma

• Strengthening boundaries and relationships

• Building emotional awareness and resilience

I draw from evidence-based approaches such as:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

• Trauma-informed therapy

• Mindfulness-based strategies

In sessions with me, you can expect a supportive, non-judgmental environment where we move at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Therapy isn’t about being “fixed” it’s about gaining insight, learning tools, and reconnecting with yourself in a meaningful way.

Some sessions may involve exploring deeper emotional experiences, while others focus on practical tools you can use in everyday life.
