I work with young professionals, executives, healthcare workers, and other high-achieving individuals struggling with burnout, anxiety, chronic stress, and feeling emotionally stuck. Many of my clients work in demanding, fast-paced environments and feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or disconnected. Using CBT and mindfulness-based approaches, I help clients develop healthier coping skills, improve boundaries, reduce anxiety, and better understand their emotions and thought patterns so they can feel more grounded, balanced, and confident in both their personal and professional lives.
I utilize a range of methods such as mindfulness, CBT, solutions focused, and talk therapy. I have a background working with a wide range of issues such as depression, drug abuse, self harm, grief and loss, and medical and sexual trauma. I also specialize in burn out and high intensity jobs. If you are feeling stuck at work or in life please reach out!
I offer free 30 minute initial phone consultation. I also have availability before and after work hours.

Some main issues I work with in sessions are anxiety and burn out. I also work with clients who are undergoing big life transitions (new jobs, break ups, etc.). During our sessions we will delve into the issues and work to address them in a way that is appropriate to you. Most of my clients begin seeing improvements in their life within the first 2 months.
