What it’s like to work with me
My clients:
struggle with being worn out, disconnected, frustrated, and out of control. They are dealing with things like anger and frustration, anxiety, overwhelm, overthinking, numbness, past trauma, disconnection in their relationships, difficulty understanding how they feel, and ineffective communication with others.
Therapy Sessions with me feel:
warm, direct, collaborative, and practical. I work with my clients to recognize and effectively understand their emotions, increase their ability to tolerate discomfort, communicate effectively and collaboratively with others, feel more in control of themselves and their lives, improve their personal and professional relationships, and feel more connected to themselves and others.
Therapy Progress looks like:
less overthinking, an increased internal sense of control, fewer emotional blowups or shutdowns, better communication, improved relationships, and a stronger sense of being connected with yourself and the world around you.
I merge depth based practices with behavioral interventions to address both the root of the problem and how we can show up more effectively right now.

Specialty Areas
High-Demand Professionals & Executive Burnout
The Reality: You are used to performing, taking on massive responsibility, and keeping everything running seamlessly until the pressure catches up to you. Behind the professional success, you’re experiencing chronic fatigue, persistent irritability, Sunday scaries, or feeling detached from your own life.
How We Help: We move past basic stress management advice. We focus on boundary setting, emotional regulation under high stakes, and dismantling the hidden perfectionism driving your burnout to help restore sustainable energy and focus without losing your competitive edge.
Maternal Burnout & Nervous System Regulation
The Reality: You are trapped in a constant state of fight-or-flight, consumed by persistent irritability, or feeling overwhelmed by sudden parental rage. You love your family deeply, but you're operating on an empty tank, feeling guilty, overstimulated, and wondering where you went in the middle of taking care of everyone else.
How We Help: We move far beyond basic "self-care" clichés. We engage in practical, targeted therapy to calm your overstimulated nervous system, regulate intense emotional responses, and set healthy boundaries so you can restore deep internal calm and feel like yourself again.
Former Collegiate Athletes & Identity Transitions
The Reality: For years, your identity, routine, and self-worth were tied to your sport and elite performance. Now that the stadium lights are off, you may be struggling with a loss of purpose, body image shifts, high internal pressure, or feeling directionless in life after competitive athletics.
How We Help: Leveraging a shared background in college athletics, we channel the same discipline and drive that made you successful on the field into building a meaningful life off it. We address identity shifts, performance anxiety, and teach you how to channel your energy toward your next chapter.
Men’s Emotional Health & Anger Management
The Reality: You’re reaching a breaking point with frustration, stress, or communication breakdowns at home, but standard "therapy talk" feels abstract or unhelpful. You might notice yourself shutting down, reacting with sudden anger, or feeling increasingly disconnected from your partner.
How We Help: Therapy designed to give you concrete, practical tools. We target emotional control, nervous system regulation, and clear communication techniques so you can handle high-stress moments calmly and rebuild trust and connection in your relationship.
