I work with children (8+), teens, adults, and families who are navigating anxiety, overwhelm, life transitions, and relationship challenges. My goal is to help clients feel understood while also leaving sessions with practical tools they can use in daily life.

With children and teens, I support emotional regulation, behavior challenges, school stress, and social struggles. Many of the kids I see are sensitive, strong willed, anxious, or neurodivergent. Therapy is active and engaging. Younger kids learn through play and creativity while older kids build concrete coping and communication skills. I also work closely with parents so you know exactly how to respond during difficult moments at home, not just in the therapy room.

With adults, I help clients manage anxiety, burnout, relationship patterns, and major life decisions. Together we identify patterns that keep you stuck and develop clearer and more compassionate ways of responding to yourself and others. My style is collaborative and direct. Supportive, while also focused on meaningful change.

I use evidence based approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), emotion regulation skills, and family systems work. I tailor therapy to each person’s needs and balance insight with actionable strategies.

My approach is often helpful for:

  • Anxiety and chronic worry
  • Emotional overwhelm and reactivity
  • ADHD and executive functioning challenges
  • Social difficulties and relationship patterns
  • School avoidance
  • Autism and neurodivergent profiles
  • Parenting stress and family conflict
  • Life transitions and burnout

I aim to help clients understand themselves more clearly, feel more confident in their responses, and build skills that last beyond therapy. In my free time I like to rock climb, ski, hike, and anything else that allows me to connect with nature. I also love to travel, read, and continue learning whenever I can. At home, I cherish time with my 16-year-old bird, who has been a longtime companion.
