If you’re constantly overthinking, replaying conversations, worrying about disappointing people, or feeling like your brain never shuts off — you’re not alone. These concerns can look like high achievement on the outside and exhaustion on the inside. This is where therapy comes in. I work with adults and teens who are navigating anxiety, ADHD, perfectionism, school and work related stress, social pressure, and big life transitions. I also work with individuals on relationship and attachment concerns. Many of my clients are thoughtful, driven, and self-aware — but stuck in cycles of self-doubt, avoidance, or burnout.
My style is warm, collaborative, and direct. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), positive psychology, attachment-informed work, and practical skill-building. Therapy with me is compassionate — but also active. You’ll gain insight and leave with tools you can use in daily life. I work especially well with: • High-achieving teens and young adults
If you’re ready for more than just getting by, it’s time to take the first bold step. Schedule a free 15‑minute consult so you can see if her approach is the right fit for you. It's easy to schedule—either through her website, by email, or with a quick phone call. The shift you’ve been putting off? It starts now. Change happens when courage meets action.

I use a person-centered approach combined with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), providing warmth and structure to support personal growth and change. This integration creates a space for clients to explore thoughts and feelings while identifying unhelpful patterns and develop effective tools. Together, these methods foster self-awareness, resilience, and meaningful progress.
