Great to meet you!

As a provider living with combined ADHD myself, I know the exhausting tug-of-war between hyperfocus, burnout, and the anxiety of feeling perpetually behind. Living as a night owl with ADHD can feel incredibly isolating, especially when trying to force your brain into a standard 9-to-5 mold. With a Master's in Nursing Education, I ensure you understand your neurobiology as we treat ADHD, anxiety, and sleep issues. If executive dysfunction has left you completely drained, you are not alone.

My approach to therapy

Welcome to Sophisticated Joy. I don't do cookie-cutter psychiatry. My practice uses a culturally sensitive, intersectional framework to honor your lived experience. We treat symptoms holistically, combining executive functioning tools with medication management, working together to quiet the noise so your brain can finally thrive.

What you can expect from me

Come as you are. No need to dress up or pretend you have it together to sit with me. I offer secure virtual visits tailored to busy schedules and non-traditional hours. While I accept certain insurances through Headway, I also offer private-pay options and provide superbills for out-of-network reimbursement. Reach out today for a free 15-minute consultation.
