Depression can leave you feeling disconnected, unmotivated, or like you’re just going through the motions. I help clients explore what’s underneath the heaviness, whether it’s past experiences, unmet needs, or feeling stuck in life. Together, we work on reconnecting with what matters to you and building small, meaningful steps forward. You don’t have to have it all figured out to start.

Anxiety can make everything feel harder, racing thoughts, constant worry, or a sense that something bad is always about to happen. I work with clients to understand what’s driving their anxiety, challenge the patterns keeping them stuck, and build practical tools to manage it when it shows up. Using ACT and CBT, we focus on creating space between you and your anxious thoughts so you can move forward.

Living with ADHD can feel like your brain has a mind of its own, jumping between tasks, losing focus, or struggling to follow through on things that matter to you. I help clients understand how their ADHD shows up, build systems that actually work for them, and let go of the shame that often comes with it. Together, we focus on practical tools and self-compassion, not just “trying harder.”

I believe you already have what you need to grow, sometimes you just need the right space to access it. My approach is rooted in warmth, genuineness, and nonjudgment. I’m not here to tell you what to do or who to be. Instead, I offer a relationship where you can be fully yourself, explore what’s really going on, and reconnect with your own inner wisdom. Healing happens when you feel truly heard and accepted.

CBT is about understanding the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and learning how to shift patterns that keep you stuck. Together, we identify unhelpful thinking habits, challenge them, and build healthier ways of responding to stress, anxiety, or low mood. It’s practical, structured, and gives you real tools you can use between sessions and long after therapy ends.

ACT helps you stop fighting your thoughts and feelings and start building a life that matters. Instead of trying to eliminate anxiety or difficult emotions, we focus on changing your relationship with them, making room for discomfort while still moving toward what you value. I use ACT to help clients get unstuck, clarify what’s important to them, and take meaningful action even when things feel hard.
