Smart, thoughtful, and maybe even a little intense. On a good day, your brain is a race car. On a bad day? It’s like you’re driving on ice. Whether it’s ADHD, burnout, emotional overload, or just feeling stuck, you’re here because you want clarity, momentum, and a way forward that actually fits how your mind works. You don’t need to be “fixed.” You need a therapist who gets it—a collaborator to help you decode your patterns and build tools that work with your brain, not against it. Together, we’ll explore how you function best, and start writing the documentation for your mind.
My specialty is a blend of mindfulness, self-compassion, and cognitive-behavioral techniques. First, mindfulness builds awareness and acceptance of experience. Then, self-compassion soothes and brings a sense of warmth and comfort to all areas of life. Finally, cognitive and behavioral techniques are used to produce profound changes in thinking and behavior.
My process begins with a brief phone call to see if we're a good match. On the call we discuss what came up in the assessment, and I spend a little time describing my approach and why it might or might not work for you. Prior to the first session, you're sent a comprehensive online assessment that saves us time so we can get concrete tools sooner.

The Basics of Mental Posture (sliding scale)
This psychoeducation group program covers Dr. Armstrong's "Mental Posture". Just as physical posture is the way you carry your body in the world, mental posture is the way you carry yourself mentally. It's a combination of mindful attention, warm self-compassion and self-care and a proactive, solution-oriented mindset. With these three components, you will have the foundation to start building a life of meaning and value. This group is intended to run monthly. Contact us for the next start date!
