Is your life being interrupted by constant overanalyzing, panic, insomnia or just generally feeling overwhelmed or underwater?
I work with adults who are dealing with anxiety, panic attacks, chronic stress, and sleep problems. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside, but internally they feel overwhelmed or exhausted by their mind or emotions.
Common concerns I help with are ongoing anxiety and overthinking, panic attacks, feeling constantly “on edge”, trouble falling asleep or waking up in the middle of the night, racing thoughts that won't turn off, and emotional ups and downs.
My approach is practical and grounded in evidence-based therapies like ACT, DBT, and CBT-I (for insomnia). I’ll help you understand what’s actually happening in your brain and body and what to do about it. Therapy with me is collaborative, compassionate, and practical.
If this sounds like what you’re dealing with, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to answer questions or help you figure out next steps. You can also check out my website for more information.
