It can feel overwhelming trying to keep up with the pace of life when we are struggling. You may feel stuck in intense feelings that make it difficult for you to be present at work, school, or with friends and family. What I love most about therapy is that it offers a break from the expectations and demands of the world-a space to breathe and reconnect to yourself. I work regularly with anxiety, stress, trauma, ADHD, OCD, depression, and other related struggles.
As a skilled therapist, I will find the right balance of challenge and support for you. You will feel supported as I listen whole-heartedly to your story and we build a genuine, caring connection. You will be challenged to confront fears, gain insight, find new ways of thinking, learn powerful skills, and take action.
If you are looking for an experienced therapist with a warm, relaxed style, you will likely feel at ease with me. If you think we may be a good fit, call for a free 15 minute consultation. If you are interested in participating in an a group to help you work through anxiety, ask about upcoming group sessions (telehealth and in person).

My clients often start therapy feeling anxious, down, or overwhelmed. Oftentimes relationships, work, or school are suffering. Without the right care in place, anxiety, stress, ADHD, OCD, depression, and trauma can make life feel unmanageable. We will start with an assessment and create a thoughtful plan that will help you gain insight, build skills, face fears, and find relief.
