I will listen to your story compassionately & without judgement, and support to empower you with a voice. I will nurture all that is good in you, and collaboratively help you unfold into the best version of your Self.

Feeling stuck? Overwhelmed? Experiencing worry, anxiety or depression? Struggling with Imposture syndrome, perfectionism or procrastination at work or in your personal life? I know seeking therapy can be frustrating and anxiety provoking. Therapy can help you to get unstuck and gain clarity, confidence, reduce anxiety, feel happier, develop deeper connections with friends and family, gain perspective about life's problems and disappointments, heal past wounds, establish a healthy feeling of hope and "be yourself" again.

Loss of self and self-doubt can manifest in young people as anxiety, depression, burn out, anger, and more. Highly sensitive children and teenagers are especially vulnerable right now to struggles with these symptoms and may need guidance to (re)discover their purposes and passions. I help adolescents and adults become congruent with their best selves. This in turn leads to increased knowledge of self which can lead to increased self-esteem and a satisfaction with the world around them.

From the outside, it might look like things are going well, but it's okay to admit that you're not your best self right now. Whether you're overwhelmed by anxiety, feeling the weight of depression, or being tormented by insufficient sleep, you're ready for change now. You want to discover a path toward peace, confidence, connection, and genuine fulfillment. Let's get you on that path. I work with adults who want to create lasting change in their lives and their relationships. I am a licensed psychologist who specializes in helping adults unburden themselves from the weight of anxiety and depression and restore restful sleep.
