I employ common sense strategies that allow my clients to implement new ways of seeing the world in a positive light. I'll tell you that the most powerful tool on earth is the human mind but nobody ever gave us the operations manual. I see myself as a mechanic of sorts, offering information from the minds operational handbook, allowing you to switch off the auto pilot and switch on your self determination to overcome adversity and accomplish more. And for what it's worth, I won't shy away from politically incorrect responses. The world can be harsh and I won't sugar coat it unless it's necessary to protect you from imminent harm.

Accepting New Clients! Your brain is stuck in overdrive—constant thoughts, rituals, checking, avoiding, or replaying things until it feels “just right.” Whether it’s intrusive thoughts, compulsions, or mental loops you can’t seem to escape, OCD has a way of hijacking your time, energy, and peace of mind. Maybe it’s been diagnosed, maybe you’ve just always felt “a little too stuck” in your head. Either way, you're exhausted from trying to keep things under control. If your brain feels like it’s always working against you, therapy can help shift the dynamic.

Individuals struggling with mental health want to feel heard, understood and authentically seen. When you are struggling with mental health at times it can feel like no one really sees you. I hope to be able to change that and that's where I begin: by creating a space where your experience truly matters. I draw from evidence based approaches like CBT, ACT and mindfulness, but I believe therapy should not feel like a formula. Each person is different, so I tailor what I use to fit who you are - not the other way around.

You’ve been holding it all together on the outside, but inside, it’s a different story. The anxiety never really quiets—it just shifts shape. Some days it’s racing thoughts and a tight chest; other days it’s feeling numb and disconnected. You keep wondering, “Why can’t I just feel okay?” You try to show up for everyone else, but end up feeling like you’re falling short. Underneath it all, there’s a quiet ache—grief you haven’t had space to process, self-doubt that whispers you’re not enough, and the weight of coping in ways that no longer serve you. I specialize in helping people work through anxiety, grief, and low self-worth.
