Depression and anxiety can be logical responses to difficult life events. Many adults who experienced losses and traumas in childhood have never processed these events and continue to suffer their impacts.

Therapy should help you identify the ways you hold yourself back from greater peace and success. We all pick up dysfunctional patterns along the way and need help to identify and change them. I would like to help you in this process.

Life can feel overwhelming when you're carrying the weight of anxiety, difficult relationships, or painful experiences from the past. You may find yourself putting others first, struggling with boundaries, or feeling stuck in patterns you can't seem to change. I work with adults who are ready to better understand themselves, heal from past experiences, and create healthier relationships. Together, we'll explore what's keeping you stuck, build on your strengths, and help you move toward a life that feels more balanced, meaningful, and authentic.

Through my career I've worn many different hats before getting a prescription pad. I've worked in a variety of settings such as inpatient, emergency departments, community health, residentials, eating disorder treatment, and addiction recovery with kids, adolescents, and adults.

Mental health has been a deeply personal passion of mine for most of my life — growing up with a family history of mental health challenges gave me an early understanding of how much the right support can change someone's life. I specialize in treating ADHD, anxiety, and depression, and I work with many clients who come to me feeling anxious, overwhelmed, burned out, and unsure of where to turn. What sets me apart is that I genuinely listen — not just to what you're saying, but to what's beneath it. Outside of my work, you can find me hiking, spending time at the beach, or getting lost in music, all of which remind me of the importance of balance and restoration, values I bring into my practice every day.
