Let’s be honest. Underneath that polished veneer, the cracks are starting to show. You’ve tried handling them yourself, because that’s who you are – independent, resourceful, and always able to take care of yourself, plus everyone else. You're the person your friends, family, and coworkers all go to for help. And the more you help them, the more they keep coming back, asking for something else. So if you're tired of wasting time trying to solve things on your own and you need more than a safe and supportive environment, I'm your person.
I work with high-achievers who look successful on paper but feel overwhelmed, anxious, burnt out, or stuck in patterns they just can't seem to escape. My job is to help you unravel the complicated, call out the excuses you tell yourself, and identify the barriers holding you back from living the life you really want to live.
Because you're you, you could probably continue pushing through on your own. But you don’t want to keep the status quo. And you're not going to feel any happier unless you make a real change. So let’s start there. When you're ready to get some help, reach out or visit my website to set up a free consultation.

All the schooling, training, and certificates in the world don't mean much if the therapist just isn't a good fit for you. I offer gently challenging, emotionally-attuned therapy for people who are hungry to discover the best version of themselves.

It all starts with getting to know each other (and that's a two way street - I'm not going to just sit back and be a brick wall here). My profile lists the "top specialities and expertise," but honestly, we can work on whatever you're dealing with, whether it's been staring you down your entire life, or just the past hour.

We can go into the weeds of all the different kinds of therapy I use and what approach is best for what issue, but my bet is that our time will be better spent actually getting to the core of what's bothering you. Reach out to schedule a free consultation and you can see for yourself if we're a good fit.
