Great to meet you!

I provide outpatient psychiatric care, including medication management and supportive therapy, for individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, and mood disorders, with a commitment to affirming and inclusive care for LGBTQIA+ individuals. Clients typically find my services through insurance-based platforms like Headway and referrals. I bill through insurance, with applicable copays or out-of-pocket costs depending on each client’s plan.

My approach to therapy

My approach to care is collaborative, practical, and focused on helping you feel more stable and in control. I take time to understand your symptoms, stressors, and goals, then work with you to develop a treatment plan that fits your needs.

I combine medication management with supportive, solution-focused strategies to help you manage symptoms and improve daily functioning. I value clear communication and want you to feel comfortable asking questions and being actively involved in your care.

My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and leave with a clear plan forward.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is focused on gaining a clear understanding of your symptoms, history, and current concerns. I’ll ask targeted questions to assess what’s going on and how it’s impacting your functioning.

We’ll then identify your goals and develop a straightforward treatment plan, which may include medication and practical strategies to improve symptoms.

You can expect a focused, solution-oriented session where you leave with clarity and a clear plan for next steps.
