Real therapy for real adults (with real lives).
Let’s be honest — adulting is hard. Between work, relationships, mental spirals, and that voice in your head questioning everything, life can feel like a lot. You don’t need someone to just nod and ask how that makes you feel. You need someone who gets it — and knows what to do with it.
I work with adults who are juggling all the things and quietly wondering if it’s supposed to feel this hard. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, perfectionism, messy relationships, burnout, trauma, or just a general sense of “what is even happening,” I’m here for the deep stuff — and the awkward stuff — with compassion, strategy, and a little sarcasm when the mood calls for it.
I don’t do therapy from a script. Together, we’ll figure out what’s underneath the overwhelm and start to actually shift it. That might mean working with your nervous system, reprocessing old patterns, strengthening your relationships, or learning to pause before your brain launches into overdrive.
You don’t have to come in with the right words. You can ramble, vent, swear, laugh, or say “I don’t know” fifty times — it’s all welcome here. My style is warm, direct, and collaborative, with a focus on what actually works, not just what sounds nice.
I specialize in working with ADHD and executive functioning struggles, relationship and couples therapy, co-parenting and mediation, nutritional psychiatry, and trauma processing. If that sounds like your world, you’re in the right place.
Take a breath. You’re not broken. You’re not behind. You’re just human — and you don’t have to figure it out alone.
When I’m not in therapist mode, you’ll find me singing in an indie pop band, planning my next adventure with my family, or nerding out on all things therapy. I’m endlessly curious and always learning new ways to help my clients grow, heal, and thrive.
