My areas of focus include: the LGBTQ+ community, anxiety, ADHD, autism, self-esteem, relational trauma, and people pleasing.
I believe everyone is capable of living their fullest, most vibrant life and it is my passion to help them achieve it. I help clients foster insight by processing their past experiences and gently uncovering the ways their pasts connect with their current struggles. I teach clients to discover the patterns and rules that keep them stuck and then support them in cultivating a life that brings them joy and fulfillment. I invite my clients on a journey of self-compassion and teach them how to prioritize gentleness and self-care. I believe therapy can be silly and even fun while still being impactful and effective.

My goal is to help people with anxiety or ADHD (or both) figure out ways of working with/around their default patterns rather than fighting against them or trying to be a different person.
Stressed, stretched, or scattered doesn’t have to be your normal. The people I work with usually have spent months thinking about doing therapy before taking action. Some hesitate thinking, “I’m just being lazy, I need to be more disciplined, more organized, and stop procrastinating. I just need to try harder.” Others think, “I’m worrying over nothing, it’s silly, I just need to ignore the worry. It’s not that hard.” But it’s not working, hasn’t worked, and it’s fueling the “just try harder loop.” You still feel stressed, stretched, or scattered. If you’ve tried trying hard and trying harder, maybe it’s time to try something else.
