Does your mind ever feel like it just won’t shut off? As a therapist specializing in Anxiety, OCD & Parenting, I understand how exhausting it is to live with a mind that never slows down. What starts as overthinking or worry can turn into endless “what ifs,” intrusive thoughts, reassurance-seeking, avoidance, perfectionism, and an exhausting need to feel certain or in control. Whether you’re struggling yourself or feeling lost trying to help your child navigate anxiety, OCD or big feelings, I’m here to help you understand the patterns keeping you stuck, break free from the cycle, and move forward.
As a therapist, parent coach, and mother myself, I understand the unique challenges women face today. I support women through the entire arc of motherhood, from trying to conceive to postpartum, parenting, burnout, and losing yourself along the way. I also help overwhelmed parents navigate raising a child struggling with anxiety, OCD, or big feelings.
Therapy with me is conversational, warm, and rooted in evidence-based treatments like CBT and ERP. You’ll learn how to break free from anxiety and OCD, work through burnout, and find yourself again. For parents, I use coaching and SPACE to help you better understand and support your child while building their confidence to manage anxiety, OCD, & big emotions

I'm a modern therapist who believes therapy should be interactive, relatable, and engaging. I won't just sit, nod, and ask, "How does that make you feel?" I understand that every brain works differently and take a neurodiversity-affirming approach, tailoring therapy to your unique needs, strengths, and goals while grounding my work in evidence-based treatments like CBT and ERP.
