A Safe Space for Healing, Growth and Change.

I view therapy as a collaborative process — one where you and I work together to uncover patterns, strengthen resilience, and create new possibilities. My approach combines evidence-based practices with a compassionate, person-centered perspective. I often integrate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused Therapy, while also drawing from trauma-informed and holistic frameworks. This means we’ll look not only at thoughts and behaviors, but also at how emotions and the body hold your experiences. My role is to guide, support, and empower you — helping you build insight and tools that align with your values and goals, at a pace that feels right for you.

Do you struggle with anxiety, persistent stress, low mood, difficulty focusing, or feeling overwhelmed by everyday life? If your symptoms are affecting your relationships, work, sleep, or overall well-being, psychiatric medication management may help you feel more balanced, focused, and in control. My approach to prescribing is thoughtful, evidence-based, and individualized. I take the time to understand your concerns, review your treatment history, discuss medication options, and monitor your response over time. Ongoing appointments focus on evaluating symptom improvement, assessing side effects, and making medication adjustments when clinically appropriate. My goal is to help you find an effective treatment plan that supports your functioning and quality of life. In addition to my work with adults, I specialize in treating ADHD, Autism, and Anxiety in children and teens.

Struggling with insomnia, anxiety, or depression?

I use a little known approach called CBT-I for Insomnia treatment. Together, we'll build practical skills to help you sleep better, break unhelpful patterns, and move toward a life that feels more meaningful. But you don't need to have insomnia to see me. I'm a goal-focused therapist who believes lasting change happens one step at a time. Progress isn't about perfection—it's about continuing to move forward, one step at a time.
