If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or worn down by life stress, you’re not alone. Therapy can be a place to slow down, gain clarity, and start feeling more grounded and in control.

I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, high-functioning anxiety, relationship concerns, and life transitions. Many clients come in unsure where to start or worried about saying the “right” thing. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can show up as you are.

With over 18 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, EMDR, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness to help you understand patterns, build practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.
