Starting therapy is a courageous step, especially when you’ve spent so long pushing through and holding it together for everyone else. If you’ve been silently carrying anxiety, self-doubt, or the weight of past experiences, I want you to know you don’t have to keep doing it alone. I specialize in working with adult women who appear to have it all together on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected within. Therapy with me is a place to pause, be real, and move toward a life that feels more like your own. If this resonates with you, I’d love to support you.

I work with children, adolescents, young adults, and families who are navigating anxiety, emotional overwhelm, behavioral challenges, and executive functioning difficulties. Many of the clients I support are bright and capable but feel stuck in cycles of worry, avoidance, big emotions, or feeling misunderstood. I have a special interest in working with anxiety disorders, OCD, depression, ADHD, oppositional behaviors, and neurodivergent individuals. I also partner closely with parents, helping them understand what’s driving their child’s behavior and how to respond in ways that support long-term growth.
