Great to meet you!

I work with adolescents and adults who want more than just healing and coping-I help folks connect the dots for how to live a more successful and joyful life. About half of my practice is focused on performance psychology, while the other half focuses on overcoming depression, trauma, and anxiety. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, driven, and curious. They're not only looking to feel better-they want to know why they feel the way they do. As I often say: descriptions can validate, but explanations heal. Together, we connect the dots between your experiences, patterns, and goals in order to thrive.

My approach to therapy

My work integrates performance psychology with traditional philosophical and therapeutic approaches. I've developed a "Thriving-Based Therapy" approach that guides people through four key areas of life: Being, Doing, Aligning, and Thriving. This framework helps us move beyond symptom relief and toward a more complete, sustainable sense of fulfillment.

Your challenges are both uniquely yours and deeply human. In our work together, we'll learn to distinguish between the two-so you can respond more effectively with insight rather than overwhelm. This isn't just about getting through difficult moments. It's about building a life that feels fully lived.

What you can expect from me

The goal of the first session is to establish the early progressions required to moving towards living your best life. Together we will establish the initial priorities to focus on in order to move your towards living your best life.
