You're successful on paper, but something still doesn't feel right. Internally, you’re anxious, overwhelmed, stuck in your head, or struggling in ways that other people may not see. I work primarily with adults in the professional world and students in graduate school – people who are accustomed to being capable and independent, yet still feel overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or unsure how to create meaningful, lasting change. I work best with individuals who are curious about themselves, motivated, and ready for more than just surface-level coping.
As a doctoral-level licensed Clinical Psychologist with 14 years of experience, I'm well-equipped to help you identify what’s driving the emotions, thoughts, and relationship patterns that aren’t working for you. Therapy with me goes beyond just symptom management; it’s about gaining clarity, building insight, and making shifts that actually hold.
I strive to create a warm and nonjudgmental space where those of all identities and backgrounds are welcome. I work with all insurance plans on an out-of-network basis and I’m happy to verify your benefits and handle claim submissions to make the process as seamless as possible. If I might be the right therapist for you, please feel free to contact me today!

My approach is tailored to the individual, however I work primarily from a psychodynamic orientation, meaning I'll assist you in gaining insight into various aspects of yourself and their connection to your experiences in life, both past and present. When needed, I also integrate skills-based techniques to help dislodge you from patterns of thoughts and behaviors that may not be working for you.
