Are you or your loved one struggling with OCD, anxiety, trauma, relationship stress, grief, or other challenges? You don’t have to face it alone. I specialize in helping adults and teens navigate the difficulties that keep them feeling stuck, anxious overwhelmed, or disconnected. I also love working with new moms or overwhelmed mothers who are looking to find joy and peace in their lives again. I’m a no-BS therapist — I won’t just smile, nod, or repeat what you say.
