I work with adults and older adults who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, stress, or burnout. I also welcome veterans, healthcare professionals, and others facing the emotional demands of high-pressure careers. Many of my clients are looking for more than symptom relief—they want practical tools, lasting healing, and a safe, nonjudgmental space to grow. Together, we’ll identify what’s holding you back and create a personalized plan to help you move forward with confidence.
I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and psychotherapy for anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, and related concerns. Using CBT, solution-focused, supportive, motivational interviewing, trauma-informed, and person-centered therapy, I develop personalized treatment plans tailored to your goals.
Seeking help takes courage, and you don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or feeling overwhelmed, I’m here to provide a supportive, judgment-free space. When you’re ready, I invite you to take the first step toward healing together.
