You’re high-functioning, responsible, and capable... and you’re exhausted. You hold things together on the outside, but inside you feel tense, scattered, or quietly overwhelmed. Anxiety, ADHD-related overload, burnout, or an identity shift may be making it harder to sustain the life you’ve built.
I work with adults who are tired of coping and want focused, practical therapy that leads to real internal change. This is not crisis management or open-ended venting. Sessions are structured and collaborative, with attention to patterns that are no longer working and what you may be outgrowing.
Many of my clients are thoughtful, high-achieving people who feel stuck between who they’ve been and what they need next. We work to restore steadiness, clarity, and a sense of direction so daily life feels manageable again.
I bring a strong clinical foundation, advanced training, and over two decades of professional experience in deep narrative work.
My background as a writer and my work across multiple clinical settings inform the grounded, insight-oriented therapy I provide.
Therapy doesn’t require you to have everything figured out. It offers a structured space to pause, reflect, and make intentional changes at a pace that feels sustainable.
