Hi there! I'm a neurodiverse therapist specializing in ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, life transitions, identity work, OCD, religious trauma, and LGBTQ+ topics seeing clients via telehealth. I love working with those who are looking to set goals or are in a period of uncertainty. If you are someone who feels stuck, are in a transition phase of your life, or are looking for help navigating challenges, we can work together to find clarity. As a neurodiverse person myself, I take pride in creating a neurodiverse-affirming space for my clients, free from shame or judgement.

I work with adolescents and adults of all ages to address a range of mental health needs. Commonly voiced concerns might include depression, anxiety, OCD, navigating major life transitions, work-related stress, interpersonal problems, loneliness, difficulties with intimacy, sexual functioning concerns, and issues related to aspects of ones identity (e.g. age, race/ethnicity, spirituality, ability status, etc.) with particular specialization in the areas of gender and sexuality. In addition to individual therapy services I also provide Emotionally-Focused Therapy for couples.

Hey there! I'm here for those navigating neurodivergence (ADHD/Autism), battling anxiety, OCD, depression, or healing from tough relationship patterns. I might be a good fit for you if you are looking for deeper self-exploration, realistic tools to navigate difficulties, and strategies for daily life. I feel my role is to help you gain better balance and self-acceptance as well as piece together things you struggle to understand on your own. I work to identify the root of clients concerns and guide them towards real solutions. I think you deserve a life free from societal pressures and space to embrace uniqueness as strengths.

I believe in the capacity of each person to transcend obstacles and problems. Through caring, empathic support, I assist you to tap into your strengths and use these to overcome the problems bringing you to treatment. I listen deeply, and help you tap into your inner strengths to overcome challenges. We work collaboratively to find solutions and address your concerns with my knowledge of effective treatments. I've helped adults, children, and adolescents for over twenty-five years. Feel free to contact me. I'd be happy to provide more information and answer any questions.

The intrusive thoughts and compulsions you're dealing with can be overcome, and a life beyond their control is within reach.

Welcome- you have already taken the first step in wanting change. The next step is to schedule an initial call to see if it feels like a good fit. It all starts with us connecting, to have a chat. The therapeutic relationship is so important in feeling safe, supported and motivated in your work. We work as a team to help you feel better, about yourself and your life. With a calm, genuine, approachable nature, I offer an experience where individuals feel supported and encouraged in growth. I specialize in anxiety- panic, stress, perfectionism/high expectations, OCD, anxious-avoidance, depression, self-esteem, and work/life balance.

Are you feeling depressed, anxious or having relationship issues? You don't have to feel that way. I'm a compassionate therapist who can help you have a joyful life. For 15 years, I've used Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in English, Spanish and Portuguese to help adults, couples and teens. I primarily use CBT, but depending upon what's best for you, I use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy and Positive Psychology. I treat depression, anxiety, relationship issues, PTSD, phobias, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), sexual issues, and victims of sexual and physical abuse.

In couples or individual therapy, I can help you to focus on your goals, teach you how to self-soothe, manage stress and anxiety, keep depression in check and calm anger with strategies that are unique to you.Please email, text or call today for a free consultation.

Are trauma, anxiety and insecurity controlling your life, preventing you from pursuing your dreams and living life to the fullest? Do you relive the past as if it were happening right now? Your head knows better, but it fails to convince your heart otherwise. As horrible as those experiences were in the past, they continue to zap away your joy and confidence today. You might even avoid situations that trigger the feelings. Are there any lost part of you that you'd like to return to? Do others believe in your competence more than you believe in yourself? What would it be like if life was driven by passion and joy, not fear or shame?

I want to congratulate you on taking the first step towards making a meaningful and important change in your life. Asking for help and wanting to make a change in your life is not easy and takes a lot of courage. Often we do not have the right coping skills to manage our emotions and relationships, causing life to get complicated. Whether it's a new or recurrent problem, if you feel anxious, overwhelmed, depressed or experiencing relationship problems, I am here for you. I offer psychotherapy for individuals, couples and adolescents.

Each of us are unique individuals; complex and ever-changing. We are often affected by family, relationships, work, and even spiritual dynamics. I strive to understand my clients' point of view so that I may collaboratively develop a treatment plan that is as unique as they are.

I love to help people sort through their stories, experience their fears and live life authentically. We are all capable of creating a life we can be proud of.
