Anxiety has caused you to experience exhaustion and isolation. You constantly have doubts and worries floating around in your thoughts. It feels like your mind won’t stop thinking about everything at once. You doubt yourself because every little decision feels monumentally consequential. Normal tasks that used to bring you joy no longer do, even your hobbies have fallen by the wayside. Friends try reaching out to you, but you end up withdrawing further away from them. You wish there were a way to go back to when you were happy and sure of yourself, but there seems to be this massive gap that just can't be bridged.

Struggling with RSD? Anxiety? Overstimulation? Procrastination? Depression? Motivation? Need a body double so you can get things done? Being an adult is tough and I still catch myself looking for the "adultiest" adult in the room, only to find it's me! Let's talk about it and figure out a plan together. Your therapist should respect your autonomy, ask questions instead of making assumptions, and challenge you to look deeper and make connections. Let's build up your self-esteem, help you feel better in social situations, minimize your anxiety, learn how to communicate and set boundaries, deal with past trauma, or just enjoy life!

Let's find purpose in the pain that brought you to my profile. We fight so hard to keep anything bad from happening.“If I play the game, it might (or not)work out. If I avoid the issue, it’ll just disappear," it never works, does it? We fear pain& negative consequences so much that we don’t see the blinders we put on our eyes to avoid them. By putting ourselves in the dark we create BIGGER issues. What if instead of avoiding the issue, you paused and shifted? What if you chose to embrace it, get a new perspective? What if you shifted from avoidance to openness, leaning into curiosity? Let me help you find peace & resolution.

I'm here for all of it. Therapy provides a space to explore, process, and heal from what no longer serves us. I understand that sharing and exposing those parts can feel scary and vulnerable. We often form attachments to those parts, believing they keep us safe and protect us. However, in doing so, we prevent ourselves from living our best lives—lives where we freely love, allow ourselves to feel love, and embrace being loved.

Tell me if this sounds familiar— you and your partner aren’t seeing eye-to-eye on an issue. This turns into a frustrating argument with hurt feelings, and one of you wants to fix things right now, while the other wants a break. In the meantime, both of you feel unheard and are becoming more disconnected from each other. Maybe you aren’t struggling in a relationship, but you don’t have motivation or excitement in life. You have tried pushing through hard days, but it doesn’t seem to be working and you want a new path forward. Whatever your road to arrive on my profile, I am so glad you did. Let me explain how I might be able to help.

In my practice, I provide the necessary emotional environment that is conducive to healing and use the most advanced proven therapeutic tools for my clients. I believe that any adverse life event can overwhelm the normal adaptive capacity of any person at any age. Untreated, it can lead to the development of dysfunctional behaviors, feelings, and thoughts, such as depression, anxiety, obsession, negative self-talk, low self esteem, procrastination, PTSD, anger & relationship issues, among others. I also believe that everyone has the innate healing capacity to overcome these issues with the help of an experienced professional.
