Is your anxiety starting to feel overwhelming? Do you and your partner keep having the same argument without resolution? If so, I’d like to help! Clients often come to me for support with anxiety, relationship challenges, and identity concerns. They may feel stuck, discouraged, or uncertain that things can ever improve. But through our work together in therapy, many begin to experience real change, through their own insight, strength, and willingness to try something new.
Many of my clients have told me that my approach feels different from what they've experienced before. I’m transparent in sharing my thoughts and treatment ideas, and I genuinely connect with my clients, which is often through humor. My therapeutic style is integrative, drawing from a range of techniques to best support each person’s unique needs.
I invite you to reach out by phone or email. I enjoy talking with new clients and exploring how I might be able to help. And if we discover I’m not the right fit, I’ll gladly help you connect with someone who is. Everyone deserves quality, compassionate care!

I work with clients who are either struggling with anxiety-related issues or in their romantic relationships. And sometimes both! All initial sessions start with me collecting information about you and why you are coming to therapy. Then we are able to dive deeper into distressing issues and see what tools or skills can be applied to reduce symptoms.

I love to work through the lens of attachment theory! I find it to be a great jumping-off point to learn more about my clients and develop a picture of their inner world and narrative. As needed, I bring in other approaches to help resource clients so that they can gain the tools and skills to reduce their anxiety and improve their relationships with others.
