Do you have clear aspirations but feel overwhelmed by the demands of daily life? Many adults experience anxiety, stress, or self-doubt while navigating transitions, relationships, and competing responsibilities. You may struggle with boundaries, decision-making, or following through on what matters most. I provide individual therapy to support insight, clarity, and meaningful change. I also offer executive function coaching as a separate service for those seeking structured support with organization, planning, and follow-through.

You may feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, overthinking, or self-criticism, or weighed down by depression, trauma, or OCD. Maybe relationships feel hard, or you’re going through a life transition and questioning what you want next. You’re insightful but tired of repeating the same patterns. You want relief, but also deeper understanding of yourself—why you feel the way you do and how to move forward with more clarity, self-compassion, and intention.

Let’s be real - therapy should actually help. Not just feel nice (though that’s good too). You’re probably here because something isn’t working: maybe you’re stuck in your head, burned out, anxious, grieving, or just generally over it. You want things to get better, and I want that too. My style is active, collaborative, and goal-oriented. We’ll figure out what matters to you, what’s getting in the way, and what actually helps. I don’t just nod and ask how you feel about that (unless that’s useful). But if you want to feel seen, supported, and gently pushed, we’ll probably work well together.

What if improving your relationships isn’t starting together, but starting with you? As a Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I work with individuals who are curious about their relationship patterns and ready to create meaningful change from the inside out. You may feel stuck in recurring dynamics, find yourself questioning how your family background shapes your relationships, or want to communicate more effectively. Together, we create a space to gain clarity, better understand what’s driving these patterns, and begin making intentional shifts toward healthier, more balanced relationships.

Many of the amazing individuals and couples I work with come to therapy feeling stuck despite having high self-awareness. Maybe you know what that's like. You have a good understanding of yourself and your patterns, but you feel like you're at a loss for how to heal past wounds and make lasting changes. You might be experiencing anxiety, depression, or shame about not being able to get out of your own way. It's tough, especially for folks who are survivors of trauma or have had difficult early life experiences. The good news though is that healing is possible – through therapy that goes deeper.

I am a therapist with lived experience which means that I have a mental health condition and personal experience with the mental health recovery journey process. There is nothing to be ashamed of when you are diagnosed with a mental health condition. So many people (including myself) self-stigmatized in the beginning because of shock or disbelief of the diagnosis. I can assist you in making sense of things and in finding yourself as you maintain your recovery. Many therapists can do this; however, not many of them have personal experience that they can professionally share with you to help you live your best life.

If things appear good on the outside but inside you feel on edge, self-critical, or overwhelmed, you’re not alone. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, OCD, trauma, low self-esteem, and who are overwhelmed by emotions, often during times of transition or uncertainty. I also have a particular interest in anxiety related to health, food allergies, and food intolerances. Having lived experience in this area, I understand how safety concerns can shape daily life. In therapy, we work to identify what’s protective versus exhausting and build trust in your ability to cope without staying on high alert.

I have found that asking for help is one of the bravest decisions a person can do to better themselves. People that make the most of our sessions are typically curious and have a clear goal in mind whether it is managing trauma, anxiety or depression. Most clients I've worked with want to figure out how to be less stuck in their lives.
