I earned my Master’s in Counseling Psychology from the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology in 2013, specializing in Expressive Arts Therapy, and I work with adults (18+) navigating the intersecting challenges of anxiety, ADHD, depression, and life transitions. My approach draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and includes WPATH evaluations for adults. My work is rooted in the belief that our emotions have something to teach us—even when they’re messy or overwhelming—and sometimes what we need most is someone to help us listen more clearly to ourselves.
My Clients
Life doesn’t always go according to plan—and even when you’re doing your best to keep up, anxiety, ADHD, depression, or major life changes can make it feel like you’re falling behind in ways no one else can see. Maybe you’re struggling to focus, manage emotions, or stay connected to what matters most. Therapy can be a place to slow down, sort through the noise, and reconnect with yourself. You don’t need to have everything figured out to begin—you just need a space where your experience is taken seriously, without judgment.
