I specialize in personality disorders and also support those navigating anxiety, depression, and intense emotions.
You’re not alone—and you’re not too much.
If you're struggling with your mental health, whether it's anxiety, depression, overwhelming emotions, or just feeling stuck, you're in the right place.

Therapy offers a space to slow down, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and start feeling like yourself again. Together, we’ll work to build insight, resilience, and tools to help you navigate life with more ease and self-compassion.

My ideal clients are adults and adolescents who feel stuck in patterns they can’t quite untangle on their own. Some appear to be functioning well but feel overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma responses, or relationship dynamics beneath the surface. Others may feel different from their peers, socially ostracized, or exhausted from masking just to fit in. You don’t need to have everything figured out to start therapy, but you do need a willingness to be curious about yourself and be open to doing the work that meaningful change requires.

I have experience working with adults & adolescents with concerns such as depression, anxiety, relationship problems, mood & personality disorders, confidence/self-esteem, trauma, grief/loss, & substance/alcohol abuse.
Compassion is a basic human need that often goes unfulfilled. When we don’t get it from others, it’s no wonder we are our own toughest critic. We refer to ourselves in harsh terms we would likely not use with friends and family. We feel stuck, alone, hopeless. Reaching out for help is hard, but continuing the emotional suffering is even harder. My clients have described me as approachable, compassionate, & non-judgmental. My goal is to help you explore & process unhealthy patterns of thinking and behavior while learning new healthy ways to regulate your emotions, communicate with others, & to stand firm in your decision-making.

Personality Disorders Therapists
What are the common treatment options for personality disorders?
Personality disorders are typically treated with psychotherapy, sometimes in conjunction with medication. Therapy can help people with personality disorders develop skills to tolerate difficult emotions, navigate interpersonal relationships, and solidify their sense of self. Medications can treat symptoms that co-occur with the disorder, such as depression, anger, aggression, and impulsivity.
When to seek treatment for personality disorders?
Even though treatment for personality disorders can be an uphill battle, it’s best to seek help if you suspect that you or a loved one is struggling with one, because personality disorders can create substantial problems in life. Symptoms depend on the specific disorder, but overall signs of personality disorders include consistent difficulty maintaining close relationships, dramatic variations in self-esteem, and an unstable sense of identity.
How long does therapy take for personality disorders?
The timeline for treating personality disorders isn’t as clear-cut as it is for other disorders. Change can be difficult, taking from around one year to five, 10, or more. The key is finding a therapist who has extensive experience treating the relevant disorder. For example, a psychologist who specializes in narcissistic personality disorder has specific communication strategies that allow them to sustain the relationship and be more effective with narcissistic patients.
Can therapy help people with personality disorders?
Research suggests that for those who are motivated to address concerns or interpersonal conflict related to a personality disorder, therapy is far more effective than no treatment, and that most people in therapy see improvements. However, since personality disorders involve entrenched elements of identity, they are less responsive to treatment than are other mental health conditions. Finding an expert who has extensive experience working with a given personality disorder is one factor that increases the likelihood of successful treatment.
