Feeling trapped by anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or procrastination? I help you gain calm and control with practical, evidence-based CBT and ERP -informed tools. I help adults with anxiety and OCD intrusive thoughts, reduce chronic overthinking, and feel steady again in their daily life and relationships. My approach integrates ERP and CBT for practical symptom relief with deeper attachment and parts-based work to address long-standing relational patterns, self-criticism, and codependency. Therapy with me is structured, collaborative, and paced to your individual path.

Many functioning adults struggle with anxiety, OCD, or procrastination that persists even when they understand what’s happening.

These patterns aren’t a lack of willpower —

They may be learned responses that can be changed with the right support and tools.

Together, we create tailored plan for transcending patterns that have kept you stuck.

You’ll leave sessions with language for your patterns, tools that work in real time, and a quiet confidence you didn’t think was possible.

I specialize in:

  • OCD and intrusive thought spirals
  • Anxiety that shows up as overthinking, perfectionism, or constant second-guessing, emotional eating
  • Codependent relationship dynamics
  • Navigating old-school family dynamics without shrinking yourself

People tell me they value my sincerity, warmth, and ability to make them feel truly seen — while also being gently challenged to grow.

If you’re ready to stop spinning and start shifting, schedule a session with me today.

I believe the greatest relationship one could ever have is the one with themselves. Oftentimes, we tend to get lost in the expectations of our families, society, culture, relationships, religion, etc., and find ourselves unhappy with the person staring back at us. Regardless of which of these feels true, the journey to yourself can be scary, uncertain, and uncomfortable; however, not impossible. Together, with you in mind, I aim to serve as a guide to assist you with healing past hurts by helping you become more self-aware; accepting and trusting your feelings and experiences; alleviating your distress; and living an authentic life.
