Often rebooked
I work with adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, burned out, or unsure of their next step in life. Many of my clients are navigating stress, ADHD, anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, or major transitions — whether that’s entering adulthood, changing careers, coping with loss, or trying to rediscover purpose. My approach is genuine, collaborative, and down-to-earth. Therapy with me feels like a real conversation — professional, ethical, and structured, but also warm, human, and sometimes even lighthearted when it helps people feel more at ease. I believe meaningful change happens when you feel safe, understood, and supported, not judged or rushed. I blend evidence-based tools like CBT with practical problem-solving strategies that fit your real life, not just a textbook. Together, we focus on building insight, confidence, and skills you can actually use outside of session — so therapy becomes something you rely on less over time, not more. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or ready to make a change but unsure where to start, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I’d be honored to support you as you take the next step forward.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, my goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can begin sharing what brought you to therapy. We’ll spend time getting to know each other, exploring your story, and identifying what feels most important to you right now. I’ll ask questions to better understand your background, challenges, and goals—but there’s no rush or pressure; you can share at your own pace. Together, we’ll outline what you hope to gain from therapy and how I can best support you. By the end of our first meeting, you’ll have a clearer sense of what our work together can look like and how we can start moving toward the changes you want to see.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I combine warmth, humor, and genuine care with practical strategies that fit each person’s unique needs. I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach—our work is collaborative, flexible, and focused on your goals. Whether you’re facing stress, overthinking, ADHD, grief, or major transitions, I create a space where you feel understood and supported while also being challenged to grow. My greatest strength is helping people feel both safe and empowered to make lasting, meaningful changes in their lives.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My ideal clients are people navigating transitions, pressures, and roles that often leave them feeling unseen, overextended, or stuck. Many are students and professionals balancing high expectations with self-doubt, or teachers and medical trainees facing burnout and identity challenges. I work with men seeking a safe, judgment-free space to process stress, relationships, and identity, and with adults exploring ADHD or overthinking who want strategies that fit their unique brains. I also support creatives and athletes managing performance pressure, and individuals experiencing grief and loss—including the profound bonds we share with pets. What they share is a desire to feel understood, reduce overwhelm, and reconnect with a sense of purpose. They want clarity in relationships, balance in daily life, and confidence in who they are becoming. Together, we create space for growth, relief, and building a life that feels authentic, meaningful, and fulfilling.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use a practical, goal-oriented approach that focuses on the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and actions. Together, we’ll look at patterns that may be keeping you stuck—like overthinking, negative self-talk, or avoidance—and practice strategies to shift them. This often includes simple tools and exercises you can use between sessions, so progress continues outside of therapy. My goal is to make this work feel approachable and tailored to your needs, giving you both insight into why challenges show up and concrete steps to move forward with more clarity and confidence.
