I specialize in working with women from preconception through perimenopause who are struggling with anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, and burnout.
As a mother you want to appear fine, but deep down you are struggling with spiraling thoughts, self doubt, and longing for the old you. You want to be present in your daily life, yet find yourself lost in exhausting and time-consuming patterns. You often feel alone with your anxious thoughts and wonder if you’re a bad mom for having them. But you’re ready to make a change – ready to have a deeper understanding of your anxiety spirals and learn strategies to disengage and be gentle with yourself. Most of all, you’re ready to get back into the driver’s seat of your life so that anxious thoughts no longer dictate where you go.

I was a moody little menace as a teen - therapy was the only place I didn’t roll my eyes.
It was the first time I felt truly understood, and it flipped a switch in me. Fast forward: now I’m the one creating that safe, validating space for others (minus the teen angst… usually).
Whether you’re dealing with low self-esteem, relationship chaos, big feelings, or just trying to survive a life plot twist - I got you! I use a mix of CBT, DBT, ACT, and good old-fashioned human connection. Because let’s be honest, none of that therapy jargon matters if you don’t feel like your therapist gets you.
