I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, trauma, and mood disorders.
Do you feel overwhelmed, weighed down and stuck in place at times, like you know what you should do, but don’t have the motivation to make it happen? This is the effect ADHD, depression, anxiety and trauma can have on people, and you’re not alone. As your therapist, my goal is to make you feel heard and understood. Together, we will address your concerns by understanding how your thoughts, emotions, and physical health effect one another. We will seek to understand the underlying source of your symptoms and discover coping mechanisms that work for you through exploring your strengths, interests and support systems.

Hi, I'm glad you're here. I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to live an authentic and fulfilling life. My approach to therapy is meeting people where they are and helping them get to where they want to be. I think that change happens through genuine connection, so feel free to be completely yourself in therapy - I’ll do the same. Some of the topics I'm passionate about in my practice are body image/body neutrality, grief, anxiety, parenting, exploring gender and sexuality, dating/relationships, life transitions, social difficulties, and OCD, but really, I'm open and excited to support you with whatever you're dealing with.

I specialize in treating OCD, anxiety and Insomnia using evidence based practices such as ERP, ACT, I-CBT and CBT.
I am passionate about working with adults who are suffering from anxiety disorders ( OCD, social anxiety and panic) and Insomnia. Anxiety can be incredibly interfering in people's lives whether it be work, school or relationships There are very effective treatments which help people live the lives they want to be living without engaging in compulsions, experiencing panic, or feeling stuck worrying. Similarly, when we can't sleep, we do not feel or function our best. Learning strategies to get a good nights sleep can be incredibly impactful. Together, we can work towards reducing anxiety and feeling more rested.

I am also well versed in ERP and have found it particularly successful in supporting individuals struggling with OCD.
I believe that autonomy and intrinsic motivation are key elements in creating positive change. The stress of living in a complicated, fast-paced world can make it difficult to find these things within ourselves. Maybe you're feeling stuck, looking to make a change, or just need a supportive environment to help you cope. My goal is to provide a collaborative therapeutic relationship and a non-judgmental, respectful, welcoming space in which my clients can develop insight into their own strengths and values, as well as the challenges that may be inhibiting personal growth.

I aim to help folxs navigate the unique landscapes of neuro-spiciness, OCD, anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress.

Therapy with me is collaborative, creative, and unapologetically affirming. Whether we’re exploring your relationship with your inner parts, unpacking systemic harm, or discovering ways to care for yourself, you are the expert on your experiences.
