    Specializes in Anxiety, Burnout +16 more
    I have a very empathic style and I've treated people with various issues in different stages of their lives. I would love to help you create the changes you are seeking and in turn, find your authentic self. I am client-centered and my approach is individualized to meet your personal needs and goals. I feel that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all approach, and together we could find and work on the issues that you feel or holding you back from having the life you want to be living. I have been a clinical therapist for over 15 years.

    Specializes in ADHD, Autism +2 more
    I am passionate about working with adults ready to unlearn perfectionism, release unhelpful survival strategies, and reconnect with their authentic selves. Using DBT and EMDR, I help clients find language for their truth and tools for nervous system care. Our work isn’t about fixing you—it’s about coming home to yourself. Sessions blend conversational and educational approaches, offering understanding while providing concrete tools. My work is neurodivergent-affirming, client-centered, and trauma-responsive.

    I focus on an integrative process that balances addressing immediate, practical concerns with deeper emotional processing, particularly for those navigating burnout or complex relational issues. My training began overseas, and this multicultural background allows me to bring a broad, fresh perspective to our work together. I provide a unique combination of depth without “fluff” and pragmatism without reductionism. My goal is to offer the insight and skills necessary to help you move from feeling stuck to feeling capable. I frequently use CBT, IFS, and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy to support meaningful, lasting change.

    I work with individuals experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, major life transitions, grief/loss, minority issues, relationship issues, sexual orientation, and gender identity and exploration. I feel my role is to prioritize creating a safe space that is non-judgmental and comfortable so each person can go on a journey of self-discovery. I want all my clients to be able to build the skills they want for emotional regulation, healing, and self-awareness. I know therapy can be a difficult step for people, but I will be there with you each step of the way.
