Feel like you're a constantly spinning top, trying desperately not to topple. Honestly, our minds are bombarded by more stimuli in a day than our ancestors faced in a lifetime. It’s overwhelming, Even for people who swear they are not competitive, jealous, or influenced by the current pace of change or amount of choices – it’s exhausting. To students: Navigating what feels like endless academia & adulthood simultaneously? It's hard. Between endless comparisons with your friends who all seem to have the perfect internship to the guilt of spending too much time on Tiktok - you can start to really doubt that you can handle this.

Most individuals come to me either when stressful life events have overwhelmed their usual coping strategies or they feel stuck in unproductive patterns of behavior. They feel anxious, depressed, or like they are functioning below their potential. Sometimes these feelings make important relationships very difficult. You may have challenges that hinder your ability to enjoy your family, job, studies, or relationships. As your therapist, I will work with you to identify what is holding you back from reaching your goals.

Feel like you’re carrying the weight of the world, yet you’re all alone in it? Maybe there’s a relentless hum of anxiety, a low-key feeling of loneliness that never really lets up even if you have people around. You’ve tried talking things through, but it’s like putting a Band-Aid on something that needs stitches. I’m here to help you dig way beneath the surface, past the quick fixes, and figure out what’s really fueling all that angst. With a deep assessment background, we’ll get at those hidden layers. Then we can rewire an overactive nervous system that has your own thoughts treating your brain like it’s part of a firing squad.

Academic burnout: where your motivation is not just on vacation – it's taken an indefinite leave of absence. Maybe you are way past the point of even humor. Are you a student, doctor, lawyer or professor working in academia or the field who is just DONE? I specialize in helping academics, intellectuals, and high-net worth individuals get their spark back. I truly understand how demotivating the systems that you operate in can be, because I have lived them myself, and because I hear stories every day that most people wouldn’t even think about sharing with anybody. Or, maybe something in your personal life is dominating your focus.
