My ideal client feels stuck despite trying hard to move forward. They may struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, or a quiet sense of disconnection. Many are high-achieving professionals or caregivers who have spent years taking care of others while neglecting themselves. Some have tried therapy or medication and still feel something has not fully shifted. They want more than symptom relief. They want clarity, emotional steadiness, and a deeper understanding of themselves. They are ready for lasting change, not another temporary solution.
I provide physician-led, trauma-informed care that integrates mindfulness, psychotherapy, and when appropriate, ketamine treatment or Spravato for treatment-resistant depression. These therapies can support neuroplasticity and help shift rigid patterns. Care is structured, ethical, and thoughtfully integrated so progress feels meaningful and sustainable.
If you feel overwhelmed, numb, or exhausted, it does not mean you are broken. It often means your nervous system has been under strain for too long. You do not have to navigate this alone. Whether exploring therapy, ketamine, or Spravato, we can discuss what fits your needs and move forward thoughtfully, at a pace that feels safe.

I use psychedelic-assisted therapy with ketamine to support deep healing. Before treatment, you'll have a therapy session to set intentions and prepare. Then, you'll meet with me for your in-office ketamine session, followed by a short post-treatment therapy session. Within 72 hours, we'll have an integration session to process insights and reinforce growth.
