I am a therapist specializing in ADHD, children, adolescents, teens and adults experiencing depression and anxiety. My interest also extends to working with college students who are navigating the complexities of transitioning into adulthood, providing them with the necessary support to build their self-esteem and achieve their dreams and goals. Helping women adapt to life changes, such as having a family, experiences postpartum depression or transitioning to the empty nest or addressing post-traumatic stress are also special areas of interests for me as a therapist and a social worker.

Are you a high achieving woman and/or busy Mom who feels like she’s lost herself in all the demands of life? You might feel unmotivated where you used to feel driven, worried or stressed where you used to feel in control. It feels like someone is always needing something from you and your to-do list is coming at the expense of your own wellbeing. You’re ready to DO something about this—not just sit and talk, but learn some practical ways to start changing your life and how you feel about it. You’re ready to stop second-guessing yourself, feeling disconnected in your relationships, and missing out on life.
