Life can feel overwhelming when your mind and body seem to be working against you. Maybe you notice yourself stuck in old patterns, reacting in ways you don’t fully understand, or feeling weighed down by anxiety that won’t let up. Maybe you’ve lived through experiences that still echo in your body, or you’re navigating a season of life that feels tender, disorienting, or heavier than you expected. Therapy can help interrupt these cycles and respond to anxiety in healthier, more sustainable ways. Across my practice, I offer a compassionate space and concrete strategies that help you respond differently in ways that foster healing.

I support clients with obsessive‑compulsive disorder (OCD), trauma and PTSD, anxiety, maternal mental health, pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum challenges, depression, life transitions, codependency, coping skills, and stress.

Your story matters, and so does your wellbeing. I pull from ERP and Narrative Therapy to help break old cycles and practice new, more adaptive ways of living.

OCD is often misunderstood. It's not simply about cleanliness or perfectionism. OCD involves intrusive thoughts, images, or urges that create distress and repetitive behaviors or mental rituals meant to reduce anxiety or create certainty. ERP therapy can help you interrupt these cycles and respond to anxiety in healthier, more sustainable ways.
