One of the bravest things you can do is decide that your story is worth understanding. You don't have to arrive with the right words or a clear plan — just a willingness to start. Maybe you've been holding it together for everyone else, or telling yourself this isn't bad enough to need help. It is enough, there's nothing you have to prove. I am warm and easy to talk to, and can be direct when that is what helps. Whatever you're carrying, you don't have to carry it alone. When you're ready, I'd like to hear what's bringing you in.

I work with individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, stress, relationship challenges, burnout, grief, and major life transitions, with the understanding that many emotional struggles are often connected to deeper patterns, past experiences, and unmet needs. Treatment focuses not just on symptom reduction, but on uncovering and working through the underlying patterns sustaining them. I take an eclectic, evidence-based approach tailored to you. I specialize in ACT, EMDR-trained, and also incorporate ERP, DBT, and somatic therapy. Some sessions are more structured and solution-focused, building tools you can use right away.

My philosophy of therapy and change is that change comes from within. As a therapist, I ask a great deal in asking an individual to change, as change is an incredibly difficult task for everyone. The journey of change requires both the client and myself to work collaboratively throughout this journey. It is for this reason that the rapport between the client and myself is critical. I aim to provide all my clients with the space to explore their underlying feelings, thoughts, and behaviors so that they can engage in change.

ADHD Therapists
When should I seek treatment for ADHD?
You should seek treatment for ADHD if you consistently have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. Symptoms of ADHD include the inability to sustain attention during tasks, difficulty organizing tasks and activities, being easily distracted, frequent fidgeting or squirming, and talking or interrupting excessively. If these symptoms interfere with your career, academics, or relationships—for example, consistently failing to complete professional projects on time—you should seek an evaluation for ADHD.
How does treatment for ADHD work?
Effective treatment for ADHD often consists of medication, behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes. Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Ritalin work by altering levels of neurotransmitters in the brain; higher levels of dopamine and norepinephrine are known to improve attention and focus. Therapy works by helping people with ADHD understand the condition, discuss their areas of difficulty, and develop behavioral strategies to manage their symptoms. In some cases, modifying one’s diet and exercise can also help improve symptoms.
Are there specific medications for ADHD?
Medications to treat ADHD are generally stimulants, the most common are Adderall and Ritalin. There are two categories of stimulants: Amphetamines include Adderall, Dyanavel, Vyvanse, and Dexedrine, and methylphenidates include Ritalin, Concerta, Daytrana, Focalin, Quillichew, Quillivant, and Metadate. Non-stimulants and antidepressants may be used as an alternative if stimulants aren’t effective or viable for a particular patient.
How long does treatment for ADHD take?
It’s tough to give an exact time frame because everyone varies. In terms of medications, stimulants begin to work very soon after you take them, generally within the hour. It may take time to identify the right medication and dosage, but the medication itself is fast-acting. In terms of therapy, it takes time to develop skills and put them into practice, but you will likely see improvements within a few weeks or months.
