I work best with individuals facing life transitions, men's issues, anxiety/depression, work burnout, financial stress, addiction recovery, relationship challenges, OCD, sexuality/identity issues, and PTSD. My approach is holistic and tailored, using evidence-based methods like CBT, psychodynamic therapy, solution-focused strategies, and trauma-informed care. Together, we’ll explore thought patterns, past influences, and build healthy coping skills. I focus on creating solutions, fostering hope, and preventing re-traumatization—helping you choose how to think and behave while building meaningful connections.

Even if things look fine from the outside and you’re the kind of person who handles a lot, inside you might feel exhausted and emotionally drained. You may have thoughts or experiences you don’t feel comfortable sharing with anyone, not even close family or friends. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. I work with high-functioning individuals who feel stuck beneath the surface, people who are outwardly capable but inwardly overwhelmed. Many of my clients come to me battling overthinking, emotional fatigue, shame, anxiety, perfectionism, procrastination, panic, ADHD, or the lingering effects of complicated family dynamics.

Within our current cultural paradigm, many individuals face heightened levels of stress, problematic substance use, and strained relationships. Social discourse regarding drug use, gender identity, and disability can cause negative self perception and aggravate rather than alleviate these distresses. As a counselor, I promote a critically informed, empathetic and creatively embodied therapeutic practice that can help individuals better navigate such distressing experiences while developing the insights and skills to thrive despite our collective experience within oppressive systems.

I offer EMDR intensive (6 hours/ per day) therapy, for people who need results fast. IFS-informed, my approach is to enhance your brain's processing capacity for memories, feelings, and self-sabotaging beliefs. Improving how your brain handles pain & the past leads to better moods, decisions, behaviors, and relationships. Often life just becomes easier and the frequency of addictive urges, anger outbursts, anxiety, depression, or being a doormat begins to spread out more and more until those issues feel more like a thing of the past. Sometimes a loved one may notice changes first even & feel inspired to work on themselves too.

Hoarding Therapists
What is the most effective treatment for hoarding?
Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) has been well-studied in the treatment of hoarding. This type of therapy includes changing beliefs surrounding possessions, as well as learning how to discard items and reduce acquisitions. The hoarder may also gain much-needed organizational skills. Another useful therapy may be compassion-focused therapy, which can address emotion regulation and negative self-perception.

How long does therapy for hoarding take?
Although treatment can vary, most people demonstrate improvement after 23 sessions, with some showing improvement after just a few sessions. Researchers have developed a 26-session cognitive behavioral program. People who hoard may need “maintenance” sessions over the years if the problem arises repeatedly.

Are there medications for hoarding?
The more commonly-prescribed medications for hoarding are including antidepressants, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs). This can include drugs such as venlafaxine and paroxetine. And because hoarding disorder is related to obsessive-compulsive disorder, medications for OCD, such as clomipramine, may be effective for hoarding as well.

Can hoarding come back after treatment?
Hoarding is a chronic disorder and it can last throughout an individual’s lifetime. Regularly checking in with a psychotherapist can help manage symptoms long-term. A good therapist will help the person learn needed skills including decision-making, organization, and stress reduction. The patient will gain a better perspective and the need to cling to useless items will lessen.
