I spent many years adjusting my style and personality to make others happy. This led to confusion, destructive behaviors, insecurities, and people-pleasing. One day, I decided to embrace what I believed others may have perceived as flaws and imperfections by viewing them as superpowers. I accepted that my need for validation is not "bad" versus thinking that "I'm too much" or "it isn't that serious." I became unapologetic, expecting validation for my thoughts, feelings, and emotions. I experienced this revelatory moment during therapy. Following my light bulb experience, I needed to create a safe space for others who struggle mentally and emotionally but mask it with performative behaviors!

I work with anxious overachievers, worn-out perfectionists, exhausted high performers and overwhelmed people pleasers who experience challenges managing anxiety, depression, ADHD, and other mental health diagnoses. I facilitate sessions that are empowering, engaging, insightful, and humorous. My approach to therapy is unorthodox - free of jargonized fluff and textbook scripts customized to fit the needs of my clients. While I am well-versed in many modalities, I am a hard-core person-centered, CBT, and strength-based rock star, I mean, therapist!
