My work as a therapist focuses on helping people who work in intensive professions and struggle with stress, anxiety and burnout. They face challenges in managing multiple roles and setting limits. They want to create deep meaning in their relationships and other areas of their lives. After a career as a lawyer working in law firms and in-house, I know the challenges in creating work-life balance. I've also had specialized training in couples therapy at all stages in relationships, with issues ranging from communications to managing conflict so they can feel better connected and reclaim their spark.

If you’re not feeling like yourself lately, you’re not alone. Many Americans feel the country is out of control and is careening towards an existential crisis. Typical everyday stressors like work, relationships, and family are being exacerbated feelings of a loss of individual agency.

Welcome to my practice. If we worked together, you could bring me your doubts, pains and fears. We could look into your problem behaviors and beliefs to see more clearly what drives them and what other choices you might have. We would get to know your strengths and use them. We would investigate how painful past experiences including trauma might still be affecting your reactions and choices, and try to reduce their impact. As a therapist, I am an active listener, often asking clarifying questions and inviting reflection. This exchange builds mindfulness, which I believe is essential to health.

You want to seem composed and connected, but inside you feel overwhelmed, unseen, and unsure how to shift long-standing patterns. You’re introspective, and you care deeply about how you show up in your relationships. But you’re tired. You might feel stuck repeating the same painful dynamics, weighed down by past trauma or family roles, and unsure how to fully break free. You long for grounded connection—with yourself and with others—but it’s been hard to find. You’re not alone. I help individuals and couples move beyond insight into real transformation. Together, we’ll create the clarity you need to experience true change.

You might be here because life feels heavier than you’d like. Maybe past wounds resurface without warning, relationships feel strained, or the world’s noise makes it hard to hear your own voice. Many of my clients come to therapy seeking to untangle patterns that feel automatic: like anxiety that won’t quiet, cultural expectations clashing with identity, or echoes of trauma that linger. My role isn’t to “fix” you, but to walk alongside you as we uncover hidden layers—your stories, fears, and strengths—and invite shifts toward the life you want to live.

When anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges persist, they often signal deeper patterns in how we see ourselves and connect with others. These patterns shape our lives in ways we might not recognize. I specialize in helping teens, young adults, and adults transform these underlying patterns through cognitive, affective, and interpersonal approaches. I guide clients to recognize how their unique self-system shapes their experiences, leading to meaningful self-discovery. My approach integrates cutting-edge techniques with deep attention to self-development, creating fundamental shifts that extend beyond symptom reduction.

I specialize in providing neurodiverse-affirming therapy. What does this mean? It means that my therapeutic approach is to help you embrace your differences while still trying to navigate a neurotypical world and expectations. Usually, the clients I see in my practice are adults who have trouble navigating life transitions and are usually on the spectrum of ADHD, Autism, OCD, Anxiety, and/or Depression. I don’t believe people necessarily fit in a neat little box that is labeled with a mental health diagnosis. I don’t believe that a diagnosis should be a means to an end for treatment. There’s no one size fits all treatment.
