Helping children, teens, and young adults navigate anxiety, low self-esteem, and behavioral challenges is my passion. With specialized training from Harvard Medical School’s McLean Hospital, I bring a collaborative and evidence-based approach to treatment. I specialize in OCD, eating disorders, ADHD, anxiety, and depression while also supporting parents with coaching and helping women navigate pregnancy, postpartum, and fertility challenges. My goal is to empower clients with the tools and confidence to thrive, improve relationships, and find lasting fulfillment.
In our sessions, we’ll focus on practical strategies that can be implemented immediately. From managing self-critical thoughts to addressing perfectionism, I help clients build confidence, strengthen relationships, and find greater fulfillment. I also share neuroscience-backed tools and techniques for lasting growth and success.
Therapy with me is flexible, relatable, and goal-oriented. I’d love to help you or your child take the next step toward a brighter, more confident future. I offer flexible scheduling and a free 10-minute consultation to get started. Let’s connect today and begin the journey toward healing and growth.
