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 job isn’t to slow you down—it’s to make you a better driver. I use AI tools and assessments to summarize and provide feedback, but the intervention and assessesment comes from me. You get more tools, and our conversation stays human. Then between sessions, you get summaries of key points, tailored readings, and exercises to practice.
We start with a quick call to see if we’re a good fit. If so, the first two sessions pack a punch: a 90-minute assessment, a custom report, and a follow-up where we map out a clear plan. That way, you get meaningful value early on — and we both know where we’re headed before therapy begins in earnest.

My specialty is clients with sensitive nervous systems. Sometimes this shows up as ADHD, chronic anxiety or even a personality disorder. The common thread is a system that needs a more nuanced approach. I've developed a variety of tools for working with powerful minds. I'd be happy to walk you through the process. Just reach out for your free consultation.
