Ready to reclaim control over your life? Whether you’re weighed down by guilt, anxiety, or navigating addiction—yours or a loved one’s—I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space to understand, heal, and rebuild. Many of my clients are high-functioning but exhausted. It’s easy to lose sight of self-care amid the chaos of work, family, school, or strained relationships. Together, we’ll build alternative strategies, interrupt unhelpful patterns, manage stress, and improve relationships. Clients often leave sessions with fresh insight and a clear way forward.
I create a space where you can speak freely, share unfiltered thoughts, and explore what hurts. Clients appreciate my relatable, down-to-earth style—and a sense of humor that brings comfort and ease. Teens, adults, and families find me approachable. My work blends empathy with practical tools for change.
Please reach out for a free phone consultation- no pressure, just a chance to see if we're a good fit. I'm happy to answer questions and support you as you navigate this process. My office is out-of-network with insurance, and we'll handle claim filing for reimbursement so you don't have to. I look forward to connecting!

Groups
Mindful Drinking & Sober Curious Group
This VIRTUAL & WEEKLY 8-week group is for those who find themselves between "alcoholic" and "normal" drinkers and want to explore their relationship with alcohol without committing to total abstinence. If traditional recovery programs haven't resonated with you, this is a safe, non-judgmental space to ask, "Would my life be better without alcohol?" Together, we'll explore how drinking affects your mental and physical health, set personal goals, and develop mindful consumption limits. It’s about stepping into your authentic self and living a life you don’t want to escape from. Starts Nov 18th @ 6:30 PM
