Ready for a change, or just to feel better? Let's figure it out! I help anxious adults/teens, therapists, entrepreneurs/executives, & adults with ADHD to improve their lives. We'll work on coping skills to decrease anxiety/stress, & improve self-esteem. I also enjoy helping folks create boundaries & prevent burnout. I can help you unlearn people-pleasing habits, be more assertive, & heal from difficult relationships. For ADHD, we can work on things like organization, time management, habits/routines, & procrastination. My practice is inclusive & LBGTQIA+ affirming. I offer EMDR for trauma processing as well.
My style is authentic, compassionate, & nonjudgmental. I use a customized approach to create a style of therapy that best fits your needs. No two people are alike, and my approach to each person is just as unique. I'm pretty direct (but still empathetic), and I encourage you to be direct with me too.
Therapy isn't always serious or difficult - it can actually be a positive and uplifting part of your week. Whenever possible, I try to balance the difficult moments with lightness, humor, & hope. Please fill out my contact form if you'd like to work with me! (Please include your availability & insurance in your message. Thank you!)

I use a mix of different approaches, which I customize based on your needs, personality, & goals. We might process current stressors, explore your past, find solutions to problems, or integrate worksheets/handouts. I don't always give "homework", but I may ask you to try new things or complete a task between sessions. If you'd like therapy homework to keep you accountable, I'm happy to offer that!
