I specialize in treating adults in their 20's and 30's. Most of my clients have the things that they believe constitute a good life (secure jobs, close friend groups, active social lives, etc) yet they continue to feel anxious, lost, sad, unfulfilled, burned out, and perplexed by what their purpose on this earth really is. Additionally, many of them experience significant distress caused by an endless drive towards achievement rather than fulfillment and a self-defeating pattern of comparing themselves to others.

As a former Division 1 athlete, I understand the unique needs of athletes and top performers. I will work with you in a collaborative and directive way to reach your goals on a timeline based on your season or deadlines. Sports and high performance patients seek treatment for building mental toughness, overcoming fear of failure, coping with injury, managing pressure and other issues. In working with patients from the ages of 3-18, I treat anxiety, depression, trauma, challenging behaviors, relational issues and support LGBTQ+ youth. Based on your child's age, we will establish a collaborative treatment path to evoke change.

Welcome! I'm always struck by how therapy helps us unstick. It's worth it. We just weren't meant to solve all our problems alone. In our work, I'll meet you where you're at, at your pace. Together, we'll create the space where you feel safe to share, solutions can emerge, and you can know yourself better. The skills I bring help things shift over time, combining present listening with eliciting and sharing insights. And while I'll bring my own perspectives, I also welcome pushback. This is a collaborative project. I work with people 1-3x/week.

I am especially passionate about treating eating disorders. I see clients of varying age groups with a particular focus on adolescents, transitional age youth and young adults. Changing one's behaviors and psychological states is a process and I aim to meet clients where they are at in terms of their readiness for change. In addition to specific graduate training and many years working at Stanford Health's inpatient eating disorder unit, I also have lived experience dealing with disordered eating, and find that my own recovery journey benefits clients and serves as a reminder that recovery is attainable.

Do you move through life ashamed of who you really are, believing you're unlovable at your core or that you're not enough - for your parents, your partners, your friends, or the world at large? These beliefs can keep you feeling stuck and alone, or even cause conflict with people you care about. A therapist is a safe person who can help you see past the lies that your anxiety, depression, and trauma tell you about yourself, so that you can see yourself with new eyes and learn to love and accept yourself as you are. Embracing yourself without judgment makes it easier to cope with life stress and conflict and to heal from trauma.

Family is one of the most beautiful and important aspects of our lives. Navigating childhood and adolescence can be overwhelming, frustrating, challenging and confusing, at times. I use a strength-based approach through Integrative therapeutic modalities to build insight, self-esteem, confidence, balanced life, build connections and help find a client’s voice. I also help children and teens identify triggers, explore coping skills, learn self-advocacy, goal setting and how to live a healthier, happier life. I believe that a healthy family is at the core of well-adjusted happy children. I offer both individual and family therapy.

I'm a therapist specializing in working with teens and young adults, focusing on anxiety, perfectionism, addiction, and neurodivergence, particularly ADHD and concussion/TBI. In my practice, I help teens understand that anxiety is not an enemy to be feared but a signal to be understood and harnessed. Together, we work on strategies to manage anxiety effectively, allowing it to serve as a guide rather than a ruler. By shifting this perspective, teens learn to recognize anxiety's presence as a normal and manageable part of their lives, building resilience and gaining control over their emotional responses.

I also work with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and relationship issues.
