My ideal clients are individuals who often look like they have it all together on the outside but internally, they’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, exhausted, or stuck. Many are professionals/ people juggling a lot of responsibilities. They’re often high-achieving, self-aware, and often push through stress on their own. But lately, anxiety, depression, ADHD symptoms, burnout, sleep issues, or mood changes may be making everyday life feel harder than it should. A lot of my clients tell me things like, “I don’t even feel like myself anymore,” They come looking for real support from provider who really listens
I can help individuals that may be struggling with anxiety, feeling emotionally drained from caregiving responsibilities, having trouble focusing, feeling sad or unmotivated, or overwhelmed by life. Also, some wonder if they may have ADHD, navigating burnout, relationship stress, grief, major life transitions, or symptoms. Overall, they're looking for relief
I start slow and understand what’s been going on. I listen, understand your concerns and with your partnership we create a treatment plan that feels thoughtful and personalized to your needs. Treatment may include psychiatric evals, medication management, education, and providing practical strategies. With the goal helping you feel more like yourself again.
