You look like you have it all together, but inside you’re battling anxiety, self-criticism, and the fear of not being enough. The pressure to perform perfectly in your work, relationships, and life is exhausting. You lie awake replaying conversations, second-guessing decisions, and wondering why you can’t just “get over it.” Even when things seem fine from the outside, there’s a constant hum of worry, self-doubt, or the weight of past trauma that keeps you feeling stuck, disconnected, and running on empty. I offer in-person therapy in San Diego, CA, and online therapy across California, Indiana, and Ohio.
My style is authentic, collaborative, and infused with humor. Therapy with me isn’t about judgment or “fixing” you, it’s about creating real relief. EMDR and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) give us the tools to get unstuck, move past old patterns, and help you feel more at ease in your life.
As a trauma-informed therapist and military veteran, I help veterans, first responders, and other high-responsibility professionals overcome anxiety, perfectionism, and trauma. With empathy, humor, and practical tools, you’ll address the root causes of your struggles and find relief. Email to schedule a free consultation and begin your path to healing.
