The clients I work with are typically capable, driven professionals (often working in tech), who feels stuck in patterns they can intellectually understand but haven’t been able to change. They may struggle with overthinking, anxiety, procrastination, workaholism, or relationship strain, and feel frustrated that insight alone hasn’t translated into action. What they want is clarity, momentum, and relief—not by avoiding discomfort, but by building skills and changing how they think, respond, and operate day to day. Their goal is to feel more relaxed and confident, build healthy relationships, and to create a more fulfilling life.
I specialize in evidence-based therapy grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), with an emphasis on building healthy mindsets and relationships. I work best with motivated, goal-oriented clients who are willing to engage fully in therapy, practice tools / exercises between sessions, and take an active role in creating meaningful change.
Credit to you for taking steps toward a better future. If you’re ready to build skills, challenge unhelpful patterns, and create meaningful change, we may be a strong fit. Reach out if interested in a 15-min consult to see if we’re a good fit and align on next steps.
