Hello! I’m a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) specializing in anxiety, depression, stress management/burnout, mens' mental health, and substance use. I’m especially passionate about supporting those with demanding executive / professional careers and leadership roles who wish to strengthen their work-life balance. In our sessions we'll form connections between past formative experiences and present patterns. I often work with people amidst some kind of transition: new career roles, newly sober, new parents, divorce, parenting challenges (eg. empty nesters), and so on. If I still have your attention, please read on!
Together we'll work to bring you more insight, symptom relief and fresh perspectives. I value curiosity and harm reduction. While I'm more of a "generalist" now, I have 15+ years of experience working with substance use disorders. Many of my clients are sober, "sober curious," or want to reduce their use of cannabis, alcohol, nicotine, or other dependencies.
I proudly offer inclusive therapy, and also have experience working with d/Deaf & Hard of Hearing clients. Please visit my website for more info about me and my approach, or message here with any questions. Feel free to browse my professional Instagram account (no.bs.therapist) to get a sense of my perspectives. I look forward to hearing from you!
