My ideal client is an adult or young adult who is emotionally exhausted from trying to “hold it together” while silently struggling. They may appear functional on the outside—working, parenting, or meeting responsibilities—but internally they feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand.
I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for individuals navigating complex mental health and substance use challenges. My specialty is working with clients who feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or stuck—especially those who have tried treatment before and are seeking a more thoughtful, collaborative approach.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply tired of carrying everything on your own, you’re not alone. If you’re ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out. We can talk through what’s been going on and explore how I can support you in a way that feels safe, collaborative, and meaningful.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a structured, evidence-based approach that helps you understand the connection between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we identify unhelpful patterns that may be contributing to distress and work on practical strategies to change them.
