To be 'human' is such a simple and yet such a deep and miraculous concept. Suffering is a natural part of human experience and emotional avoidance is one of the main causes of psychological problems. Avoiding negative emotions may bring you short term relief but in the long term it will end up with pain. When we accept a negative emotion, it tends to lose its destructive power. Therapy is a healing journey where the alliance between client and therapist plays an extremely important role in the process of acceptance.

I help adolescents and young adults manage OCD, anxiety, and body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs) such as hair pulling or skin picking. Many of the people I work with feel stuck in cycles of checking, reassurance-seeking, or overthinking—it shapes how they see themselves, how they show up in the world, and how they relate to others. My goal is to help them gain tools and strategies to step out of these cycles and feel more in control of their lives.

Together, we break what’s keeping anxiety going and rebuild more stable rhythms, including sleep, so life feels more manageable and you have the space and energy to enjoy life again.

Life can be painful, but therapy doesn’t have to be. I specialize in helping people overcome existential stressors, recover from complex trauma, and restore meaning and balance to their lives. My approach is a little different from basic "talk" therapy - I focus on building skills that empower my clients to create real change in their lives. People often come to me when they're feeling "stuck" or have hit a plateau with previous therapy, and I enjoy working with folks who are new to therapy or who are feeling skeptical about the process.

This stuckness…dread…panic…numbness…confusion... Whatever it is you’re experiencing, there may be a sense that the problem is unrelenting. Perhaps your old ways of resolving the pain or filling the emptiness aren’t doing the trick anymore. There is a reckoning brewing inside of you and the more you try to side-step it, the more your symptoms rage. This reckoning is troublesome, no doubt, but it’s also a profound opportunity…an opportunity to respond to a voice deep down inside of you that somehow knows something better is possible…
