When you are dealing with complex mental health struggles, relationship friction, or intense life shifts, it is easy to feel stuck in patterns you can't seem to break on your own. You don’t need to have a perfect explanation of what is wrong before you reach out, nor do you need to sit through therapy that just talks in circles. My goal is to help you cut through the mental clutter, clarify exactly what is happening, and build a strategic way forward.

You might be navigating ADHD, anxiety, or depression and feeling out of step with everyone around you. You might be a parent trying to understand what your child is experiencing, or an adult facing the pressure of school, career decisions, or figuring out who you are. I work with clients of all ages, drawing on my background as both an educator and a therapist to understand not just what you are feeling, but the systems and pressures shaping it. We start with your nervous system, and build from there.

The ways we learn to cope often make perfect sense given what we have been through. Over time, those same patterns can leave us feeling stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed. I work with individuals and couples navigating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, attachment injuries, infidelity, and the lasting effects of sexual abuse and assault. If you are caught in patterns you cannot seem to shift, or carrying something that has never felt fully safe to explore, this is a space built for exactly that work.

Healing often begins with learning to treat yourself with the same compassion you already offer everyone else. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, low self-esteem, body image concerns, perfectionism, work stress, and relationship challenges. My clients often arrive feeling disconnected from themselves, struggling to trust their own voice or feel confident in who they are. Whether you are dealing with social pressure, family dynamics, dating, or the quiet weight of self-criticism, this is a space where you can begin to reconnect with yourself.

Do you struggle with perfectionism, people-pleasing, or constant negative self-talk? Maybe you feel like you're never doing enough, or your life feels out of control. You might be navigating body image concerns, disordered eating, or the pressure to mask as a neurodivergent person. I work with folks who want to break these cycles and feel more at home in themselves. As someone with ADHD, I understand how exhausting it can be. You deserve support that works for your brain and helps you build real self-trust.

I work mostly but not exclusively with adults experiencing trauma and anxiety. I also see couples and teens. Life is not easy, it is full of challenges, and it can be really hard and feel really isolating to try and face all of those challenges on our own. So, I am glad you're here on Psychology Today looking for some kind of help regardless of what that challenge is. I work with many people who are too hard on themselves, needing to live up to some image of the "perfect" XYZ, whatever that means to them. It is so hard and heavy a burden to carry. No need to do that alone. Let's work together to get you where you want to go.

On paper you are the one who has it together. You hit every target, answer every message, and carry the people who lean on you. What no one sees is the cost: the Sunday dread, the racing mind at night, the fear that if you slow down it all comes apart. Burnout rarely looks like falling apart in public. For high achievers it looks like doing everything right while feeling emptier by the week, driven by perfectionism, overworking, and the quiet worry of not being enough. If you are running on fumes and cannot remember when work last felt sustainable, you are not weak and you are not failing. You are exhausted, and that makes sense.
