Sometimes your mind just doesn't stop. It replays conversations, spirals into what-ifs, and turns even simple decisions into something overwhelming. Many of the clients I work with are high-achieving adults who quietly battle anxiety...overthinking everything, feeling pressure to be "on," and carrying guilt or self-doubt when they try to set boundaries. They often look like they're holding everything together from the outside but feel burned out, disconnected from what they need, and stuck in a constant state of overdrive.

My approach blends insight, humor, and a grounded style to help you understand why anxiety shows up and how to shift the old patterns behind it. As a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional, I help you calm your nervous system, ease the self-doubt, and rebuild balance so you can move through your days with less tension and self-doubt.

If you're ready to move beyond constant overthinking and burnout, therapy can help you feel more at peace, centered, and able to show up for yourself. I offer private-pay therapy for adults in Louisville, KY and online in 43 states, with support tailored to help you step out of survival mode and feel more at ease.

I'm a private-pay psychologist so therapy can stay focused on you, not insurance paperwork or diagnosis codes. Many clients use out-of-network benefits for partial reimbursement, and I'll gladly provide documentation to make that easier.
