You’re juggling a lot—and it’s okay if your brain isn’t cooperating. Between high-stakes exams, lab reports, job applications, and the pressure to maintain a social life, it’s easy to feel like you’re constantly underwater. When procrastination kicks in, your mind races at 2:00 AM, and campus services have a month-long waitlist, the stress can feel insurmountable.

I provide specialized online psychiatric care specifically for college and graduate students navigating ADHD, anxiety, and depression. I understand the unique rhythm of academic life. My practice is designed to fit into your schedule, offering secure video visits you can join from your dorm, your apartment, or even your car between classes.

I am licensed to serve clients across Maryland. To make your life easier, I offer simple online scheduling, streamlined prescription refills, and consistent follow-up care.

My clients describe me as warm, easy to talk to, and refreshingly direct. I don't do one-size-fits-all therapy — every treatment plan starts with your story.

You may look like you’re doing fine on the outside while internally feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck. Maybe you’re successful in your career but struggling with relationships, perfectionism, self-doubt, or the pressure to keep everything together. Maybe you’re navigating a major life transition, trying to understand yourself more deeply, or noticing that old patterns are showing up in your relationships. I offer an individualized approach that draws from nearly 15 years of clinical experience with evidence based treatment work. My work incorporates ACT, CBT, psychodynamic therapy, and Gottman couples work.
