When you're overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in patterns of self-criticism, or simply exhausted from holding it all together, it can be hard to see a way forward. I specialize in helping adults navigate depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, perfectionism, and burnout, especially when those challenges are tangled up with difficult transitions or long-standing relationship stress. Whether you're dealing with emotional overload, chronic stress, or an inner critic that won't quiet down, therapy can help you understand what's beneath the surface and make room for something new.

As an MFT in addition to Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) I use relational and systemic approaches in every session. This is because I have an understanding that individual behaviors and mental health are heavily influenced by relationships and or family environments. By focusing on these connections, this practice strives to facilitate healing and enhance communication within relationships. This process leads to healthier dynamics and improved well-being for everyone involved. Through therapy, clients will gain valuable insights, develop coping strategies, and work toward a fulfilling relationship with themselves and others.
