Are you struggling with anxiety, focus, depression, connection most days of the week? Are you in need of a refresh, reset, or a listening ear that might provide some perspective? I am here to navigate whatever challenge you're facing. I have a special passion for working with creatives (artists, musicians, writers, innovators, performers) and highly empathic people who often also struggle with anxiety, ADHD, addiction, depression, and more. Navigating life as a creative and sensitive person can be challenging, but I believe that everyone has the innate ability to overcome these challenges and lead fulfilling lives.
I take a trauma informed approach and my specializations include ADHD, anxiety, depression, postpartum depression, addiction, OCD, grief & loss, identity issues, parental challenges, and creative dysfunction. With couples and families I work from an attachment-based perspective to find a secure path forward that will provide relief for all parties.
My role is to guide and support you on your journey to find healing, meaning, balance and self-compassion through psychotherapy and creativity itself. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions.
