Whether something has held you back for years or everything just changed at once, you are looking for the right space to find your way forward. I work with teens through adults figuring out how things may have gotten stuck or too heavy, and then working together on new progress. A significant portion of my clinical care focuses on ADHD strategies, anxiety, depression, posttraumatic healing, significant life transitions, and managing major or social stressors. I also specialize in insomnia treatment, which more people struggle with than realize is something therapy can actually help.
I bring a range of approaches to that work, because what helps one person grow isn't what helps another. Using options from CBT talk therapy to hypnosis to problem solving and strategy, we bring you back to yourself. Sessions feel like a real conversation based on what matters most to you. Together we explore where you are and find your path from here.
Change can feel difficult when we feel uncertain or when we go through uncertain times in our lives. Having a space that feels secure and grounded makes it just a little easier, and therapy can make thoughts visible and clear when they may have bounced around in our minds. Welcome to the new perspective. By searching for someone, you've already started.

I work with anxiety, depression, insomnia, ADHD, trauma, and life transitions that get people stuck or knock them sideways. Therapy is personal, but typically involves understanding how we think underneath the pattern, building practical tools that fit your life, and moving toward what you want as you shift away from what hurts. Your new skills help now and support you as you continue forward.

Your perspectives and history are personal, and so should your therapeutic experience be. I integrate therapeutic methods according to what your specific needs are, your goals, and how you understand the world now. Therapy is about creating connections, which we do differently. Together, we will find how you can connect back to yourself and build the future you want.
