Feeling weighed down by ADHD-fueled overthinking, anxiety, and self-doubt? I understand these feelings firsthand. Many young adults tell me they feel stuck—struggling to focus, set boundaries, or see a clear path forward while everyone else seems to be moving ahead.

You work hard to make sure everyone around you is taken care of. You have set aside your own goals, hopes, and dreams to prioritize others. At this point, you may not know what you want and need anymore. You may even feel resentful toward people you’re caring for because you have no time or energy left for you. As an individual and couples therapist, I have supported many people through this journey of rediscovering joy and meaning in their lives and relationships.

You’re doing your best to hold everything together, but the stress is constant and the losses feel heavy. Maybe your family is navigating a recent loss or struggling to stay connected under pressure. As a BIPOC individual or family, you might feel like you’re carrying more than most: expectations, grief, and responsibilities that go unspoken. You want space to breathe, to feel seen, and to find your way forward without judgment.

The best therapy comes from conversation. We talk to build a relationship, and that does most of the work. We will begin with awareness. What are you doing and how did you learn it that way? From there we will use anything that emerges between us – stories, humor, music, movies, or whatever we deem helpful for your goals. You might also learn more about me than expected. I must continuely cultivate what makes me tick to be your guide – I won’t ask you to go anywhere I won’t go. And I will strive to help you feel heard and understood, which can do the rest of the work. My whole person is the technique, and we are in this together.

We all face challenges in our lives. Most of us have been lost or afraid or stuck or confused in one way or another. No matter how well we plan, still the moment to moment tasks of our lives are improvisation. When we can access the creative, spontaneous, perceptive parts of ourselves we have more freedom to choose how we behave in difficult circumstances.

The relationship I develop with both individuals and partners seeks to prioritize and build value around your own unique identity, as well as your singular and/or cultural understanding of wellness, safety, trust, and strength. Together we will explore the intersections of mind, body, community, and spirit to find new ways of being in the world that foster a lively and meaningful life. I consider you to be the expert of the meaning you pursue, and I value time spent letting you in on the “secret” of the therapeutic process so we can bend it to your individual need. I am LGBTQ+ affirming, as well as polyamory and kink affirming.

You may feel stuck in repetitive patterns, struggling to connect with yourself or your partner. Maybe you keep having the same fights or feel distant, unseen, or misunderstood. You want more—more intimacy, better communication, and freedom from old wounds. Whether as an individual or a couple, you're looking for real change. You’re ready to break cycles, show up fully, and create relationships that feel safe, alive, and deeply connected.

Welcome! Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you've already made a powerful decision to invest in yourself—and that’s huge. I want you to know you do not have to have everything figured out before reaching out. I’ve spent over 8 years working with individuals and families facing serious health challenges in hospice, cancer care, and pediatric settings. Through my experience, I’ve seen the incredible strength people possess when they’re given the right support, and I know the healing power of understanding, compassion, and tailored care.

Do you sometimes feel alone, overlooked, or unheard in your relationship? Are you desiring a deeper connection and more meaningful communication? At times, relationships can feel imbalanced or disconnected, leaving individuals feeling uncertain and vulnerable. When trust or respect erodes, couples can lose their sense of direction and purpose.
