Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression or OCD, or to develop healthy sexuality, you don't have to be alone in this journey.
Feeling anxious or depressed is a reasonable response to living in an uncertain world. For many of us, recent years have brought loss and trauma. It may feel like you will never heal. Learning to cope and adapt may feel overwhelming. You want to be your "old self again," but it feels impossible. You may have tried to heal yourself, only to realize you need help. You may hesitate to seek help for fear of being judged. You may feel that you are alone in your struggles, but I want you to know that you are not alone. There is hope.

I have extensive experience working with trauma and attachment, OCD, addiction (process and substance), ADHD, relationship concerns, depression, & anxiety.
Trauma and difficult life circumstances can often disconnect us from ourselves and the world around us. This is normal. It's a way to survive what may not have felt bearable at the time. Yet, even through the disconnection, your wholeness remains intact. My approach to therapy is rooted in the belief that every person, no matter the circumstances, holds the capacity for a deeply meaningful and fulfilling life. As your therapist, my goal is to help you reconnect with yourself, clarify what a meaningful life looks like for you, and take intentional steps toward living it.

I work with clients that may be athletes/performers currently or have been in the past that struggle with OCD, anxiety and disordered eating-related disorders.
Anxiety can take over your life. My clients often feel stressed, overwhelmed, frustrated, and worried about performance. Sometimes they give up because anxiety becomes unmanageable. Other times, they struggle to set goals due to fear of failure or rejection. They may feel angry or ashamed of how they look or appear to others. These feelings are often avoided through unhealthy coping. Many seem successful behind a mask of perfectionism, but when high-stakes moments come, fear of failure can sabotage progress.
