You've tried the sleep hygiene tips.
My primary focus is sleep, using CBT-I, the gold-standard, evidence-based treatment for chronic insomnia. CBT-I targets the thoughts and behaviors that quietly reinforce sleeplessness over time. I also address anxiety, depression, and life transitions when they're part of the picture, because sleep rarely exists in isolation from the rest of your life.

Mental health is a personal right, a civil right, and a vital part of overall health. Just as we care for the body, we must care for the mind. Emotional well-being affects how we work, connect, heal, and thrive every day. I believe supporting mental wellness means creating safe spaces where people feel heard, valued, and empowered to seek help when needed. It also means advocating for equal access to mental health resources and recognizing that emotional well-being affects every part of a person’s life — from relationships and work to physical health. Mental health is part of human well-being and human rights.

I believe everyone goes through different seasons in life, and sometimes those seasons require a safe space to heal, reflect, and grow. Opening up isn't easy, but vulnerability is where healing begins. Therapy is a partnership. I'll provide a supportive, judgment-free space, and I ask that you come willing to be honest, embrace accountability, and do the work. Together, we'll identify patterns, uncover the root of what's holding you back, and help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself so you can move forward with confidence, clarity, and peace. I'm committed to the journey, and I'd be honored to walk alongside you.

You’re insightful, resilient, and often the strong one for others—but lately, you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or just plain exhausted. Maybe trauma, identity stress, or systemic oppression have left you questioning your worth or purpose. You long to feel grounded, seen, and whole again, or perhaps for the first time, to unlearn the survival strategies that helped you get here but now hold you back. You’re not looking for quick fixes—you want real healing, honest connection, and a therapist who gets the weight of what you carry without needing it explained.

Restore Your Joy. You’ve learned how to keep it together. To show up. To hold space for everyone else. But maybe no one ever taught you how to be held. How to ask for help. How to say, “I’m not okay.” I work with people who feel tired in ways they can’t always explain. People carrying grief, anger, pressure, and expectation, with no safe place to put it down. Folks who seem like they’re functioning, but deep down feel disconnected, unseen, or quietly unraveling. You might not know what you need right now. That’s okay. You don’t have to find the perfect words. You don’t have to perform strength. You can exhale and come as you are.

I love working with people who are looking to elevate and change their lives. The ideal client is anyone who seeks to become a more capable and confident version of themselves. As a psychotherapist, I assist in the building of healthy self-esteem and self-worth, thus, assisting in the cultivation of positive relationships, whether intrapersonal (with self), romantic, or familial. I believe that change starts with our thoughts, and once we change our thoughts our behaviors will follow suit.

I show up as fully human and attempt to understand life's challenges through a genuine abolitionist, trauma-informed, neurodivergent, queer lens as much as possible.

Sleep or Insomnia Therapists
How effective is treatment for insomnia?
The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.
Are there specific medications for sleep problems?
There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.
Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?
There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.
What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?
Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
