Great to meet you!

I specialize in treatment of adolescent and young men (ages 15 to 40) in the treatment of ADHD, depression, sexual issues, body image, confidence, and addiction issues.

My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, providing real-world, supportive care tailored to each patient's needs.

My ideal client is 15-55 and feeling stuck or overwhelmed by ADHD, anxiety, depression, or life transitions. They’re juggling school, work, and relationships, feeling the weight of trying to keep up. They want strategies that fit their life, symptoms managed, and a sense of control. They want to stop spinning their wheels and actually feel progress. Together, we create a path that feels doable and rooted in their strengths, aiming for meaningful growth without overwhelm. My role is to support them in feeling less overwhelmed, more empowered, and finally moving forward in a way that aligns with who they are.

I focus on helping young adults to middle age find balance in a world that’s pretty hectic. If you're dealing with ADHD, depression, anxiety, or issues around addiction or relationships, I'm here to help. My approach is down-to-earth and honest because I believe in meeting patients where they're at and working on what matters most to them.

We're primarily in-person, but do offer telehealth to fit around your life if you want some flexibility. We’re all about helping with the big stuff like mood, focus, and wellness – just without the “therapy voice.” When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me outside, hanging out with my German Shorthair, Buddy (also a key team member). If you're ready to get started, let's connect!

My approach to therapy

In my approach, I combine techniques from various treatment types to create a supportive, growth-oriented experience. ACT and Existential Therapy explore and empower you to be yourself. Positive Psychology, mindfulness, and a person-centered approach help you "write your own life story," focusing on strengths, resilience, and accountability for a meaningful, authentic path forward.

What you can expect from me

I combine medication and therapy to create lasting strategies. For ADHD, medication supports focus, while therapy adds routines and organization. In addiction, medication manages cravings, with therapy addressing root causes and coping skills. For sex therapy, medication aids libido or performance, and therapy builds communication and confidence. This provides a supportive, personal path forward.
