I enjoy working with people ready to embrace change and gain a fresh perspective on life’s challenges. If you often feel overwhelmed by worries, fear losing control, or struggle with feelings of inadequacy, and if old patterns are holding you back, you’re eager to break free. You might face challenges like OCD, anxiety, trauma, depression, major life changes or just feel stuck. You’re open to exploring your thoughts and emotions deeply and facing fears to reclaim your life. If you value authenticity, connection, and a straightforward yet compassionate approach, let’s connect!
I focus on treating the whole person by integrating various therapeutic approaches, including Exposure and Response Prevention, Habit Reversal Training, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, DBT, mindfulness, and others.
Facing struggles on your own can feel overwhelming and sometimes frightening. Let me help. We’ll work together to achieve your goals in a down-to-earth, safe, judgement-free environment. And by using telehealth (video sessions), you can join from the comfort of your own couch—or wherever you feel most comfortable. Call, email, or text me today!

I often work with people struggling with OCD and anxiety, as well as the shame and fear these may bring. Please know that I understand the way OCD can turn things you love into something you fear and even avoid. I'll help you understand how OCD and anxiety work and how ERP, PE, or CBT treatment (depending on diagnosis) can bring you amazing results.
