Are you a child, adolescent, college student, or adult struggling with Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, OCD, or PANDAS/PANS? If so, you have found the right therapist. I work with children, teens, and adults on issues that impact their everyday life. With a focus on problem-solving, coping skills, and social skills, clients discover how to work through their symptoms and best manage their challenges. My treatment uses a "foundation approach" which involves finding the core issues behind a problem.

I not only see couples and families but individual clients as well. I encourage and practice self-care and self-love. My style of therapy is to work from a systems approach. A form of psychotherapy that looks at how individuals are impacted by the relationships with others. I also work with clients to connect interpersonally by creating an environment that allows clients to be seen and heard. I look forward to working with you.

We'll address difficulties with boundary setting, work, transitions, procrastination, people pleasing, avoidance, guilt, shame and codependency.
