You're not alone in feeling the lasting impacts of stress, abuse, and neglect. Such hardships can often manifest in our lives as depression, anxiety, anger, or low self-esteem. Through therapy, we'll embark on a journey to navigate these difficult emotions, build your confidence, and help you express yourself authentically. If low motivation, worry, or stress has been weighing you down, consider therapy not merely as a solution but as a catalyst for growth.

I am a lifespan psychologist, which means I see clients of all ages. I have a specialty working with neurodiversity, giftedness, and complex presentations. I use a person-centered and strengths-based approach in therapy and assessment. If you are curious about how your or your child's mind works, how you can see change and growth in your life, or what types of help or accommodations might improve your life, I can help. I offer evaluations (autism, ADHD, IQ testing, diagnostics), therapy, and parent coaching.

Therapy is an amazing placebo. You do not NEED a therapist to learn, transform, and grow your awareness of yourself. I firmly believe whatever it is you are seeking to learn, change, or make peace with, you can do it. The benefit of working with a trained therapist who sees you, gives your sense of agency and innate wisdom the respect it deserves, and offers an outside perspective on your experience informed by evidenced-based theory and practice, is that the pace of growth is greatly accelerated.
