About me
I support preteens to adults with anxiety, trauma, depression, and life transitions, including neurodivergent clients, using practical daily-life strategies.
Feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your thoughts, or struggling to stay focused?
You’re not alone. I work with teens and adults who want practical tools to manage anxiety, depression, trauma‑related stress, and difficulties with focus. I also provide neurodivergent‑affirming care for clients navigating ADHD, autism, and executive functioning challenges. Many of my clients come in feeling mentally exhausted or unsure how to move forward. Together, we build skills that actually help, improving emotional regulation, focus, and daily functioning so life feels more manageable.
My approach is strengths-based, practical, and centered on real change. We’ll explore the patterns that keep you stuck and develop strategies that help you feel more grounded, organized, and confident in your day-to-day life. I specialize in executive functioning challenges, including difficulties with focus, organization, planning, and follow-through.
Therapy with me isn’t just talking about problems; it’s about creating meaningful progress. You don’t need to have everything figured out before you start. We’ll move at your pace, working together to build skills, confidence, and clarity so you can feel more grounded and capable in your everyday life.
