Therapy can get you on the right path.
Learn about my online therapy services for teens and adults
When the things you are trying so hard to control start to take over your life…
You may feel exhausted from constant worrying—about school or work, relationships, health, food, or what the future holds. Anxiety, perfectionism, OCD, phobias, or eating concerns can make everyday decisions feel overwhelming and hard to manage on your own. That’s where therapy can help. I support teens and adults who feel stuck in cycles of fear, self-criticism, avoidance, or rigid expectations and want relief that goes beyond short-term coping. My priority is to listen carefully and provide a safe, consistent space for honest conversations, self-understanding, and skill-building. Clients leave sessions feeling more grounded, capable, and empowered—knowing they are supported by a therapist who truly understands their challenges, helps them build effective tools, and walks alongside them as they work toward lasting well-being.
Your confidant, advocate, teacher, and cheerleader, all rolled into one.
I offer individual therapy for teens and adults struggling with anxiety, OCD, phobias, perfectionism, and eating disorders, as well as family therapy to support healing and change outside of therapy. Individual therapy provides a confidential space to better understand your experiences, build effective coping skills, and reduce patterns of avoidance, rigidity, or self-criticism. Family therapy focuses on improving communication, increasing understanding, and helping family members learn how to respond in ways that support recovery rather than unintentionally reinforce symptoms. Together, these approaches create a collaborative, supportive environment that promotes lasting change, resilience, and improved well-being for both individuals and their families.
Online therapy makes high-quality, evidence-based care accessible and convenient, no matter where you live. I offer secure telehealth services to teens and adults in most U.S. states, allowing you to receive consistent, professional support from the comfort and privacy of your own home. Online therapy is effective for treating anxiety, OCD, phobias, perfectionism, and eating disorders, and provides the same thoughtful, personalized approach as in-person sessions—without the stress of commuting or schedule disruptions. Whether you’re balancing school, work, family responsibilities, or living in an area with limited mental health resources, online therapy allows you to get the support you need in a way that fits your life.
Methods and modalities
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, goal-oriented approach that helps you identify and modify unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress. CBT is based on the understanding that the way we interpret situations strongly influences how we feel and how we act, and that by changing these patterns, meaningful improvements are possible.
Through CBT, you learn practical skills to challenge distorted or overly rigid thinking, test assumptions, and develop more balanced, flexible responses to stressors. This approach can help reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression, while supporting healthier coping strategies and lasting behavioral change. Treatment is collaborative and skills-based, with a focus on applying tools in everyday life to support long-term emotional well-being.
Mindfulness-Based Therapies
Mindfulness-based therapies focus on strengthening self-awareness and emotional regulation by helping you observe thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations without becoming overwhelmed or reacting automatically. Instead of trying to eliminate distress or control everything, mindfulness teaches you how to relate to your experiences with greater openness and curiosity.
This approach can reduce stress, improve concentration, and create space between you and patterns such as rumination or emotional avoidance. I incorporate mindfulness practices through evidence-based treatments including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), tailoring skills to your needs and helping you apply them in practical, real-world situations.
Exposure-Based Therapies
Exposure-based therapies help you gradually face feared situations, thoughts, or sensations in a structured and supportive way, so anxiety loses its power over time. Rather than avoiding discomfort, you learn that you can tolerate distress, respond flexibly, and stay grounded without needing to escape or rely on rigid safety behaviors, such as handwashing or restricting food.
This approach can reduce anxiety, OCD symptoms, phobias, and avoidance patterns, while increasing confidence and freedom in daily life. I incorporate exposure-based strategies through evidence-based treatments such as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and other cognitive-behavioral exposure interventions, such as food challenges, always paced collaboratively and tailored to your goals.
My philosophy
My clients describe me as genuine, approachable, truly caring, and highly knowledgeable. I am deeply committed to helping each person reach their goals. I work hard to create an environment where you feel safe, respected, and understood—not judged or rushed. Therapy works best when you don’t have to filter or impress, and when you can bring both your strengths and your struggles into the room.
I see your potential even when anxiety, rigid rules, or self-doubt make it hard for you to see it yourself. I genuinely invest in supporting you as you build confidence, flexibility, and self-trust, so you can move toward being your best self in ways that feel sustainable and true to who you are.
