I work with adults who appear high-functioning but privately struggle with anxiety, relationships, identity, trauma, or loss. Many feel stuck or unseen despite outward success. Together, we identify unhelpful patterns and build practical tools for lasting change.
I offer integrative, evidence-based therapy drawing from CBT, ACT, DBT, and trauma-informed care. My approach is direct, collaborative, and grounded in interpersonal neurobiology and attachment theory to help you move from insight to meaningful action.
You don’t have to face things alone. If you’re ready to move beyond “just getting by” and want to feel more connected and authentic, I invite you to take the first step. Let’s figure out what’s possible, together.

I often use a humanistic and eclectic approach that suits your challenges, pulling from CBT and interpersonal neurobiology. We'll start by exploring where you are at and why you are seeking treatment. From there, I use basic psychoeducation to help you understand your brain-body connection. Your experience will be collaborative, practical, and focused on your unique needs.
