Now scheduling same week appointments. Accepts most commerical insurance plans! You may feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or compulsive behaviors and want relief without feeling judged. You might be struggling with focus, mood, relationships, or stress, and are looking for practical tools to gain clarity, build confidence, and live a calmer, more meaningful life. I utilize an integrative, evidence-based approach tailored to your unique needs, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
I provide evidence-based therapy for OCD, anxiety, and related disorders, helping clients reduce intrusive thoughts, compulsions, and chronic worry. I also support individuals with depression, ADHD, relationship concerns, and life stressors, offering practical tools in a compassionate, collaborative space.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted from managing everything on your own, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep pushing through without support. Therapy can be a place to feel understood, learn tools that actually help, and begin creating lasting change. When you’re ready, I invite you to take the next step.

"
These are the types of treatment I use and what it will be like. For OCD, I use ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention). This helps you face things that make you worried without doing your usual habits. Practicing this over time makes worries smaller and teaches your brain to handle uncertainty better."
