Dealing with anxiety, depression or a diagnosis of bi-polar can be overwhelming. We can feel trapped, alone or even confused where to go next with these problems. They sneak up on us, sometimes affecting our work, our relationships and even dimming the dreams we once had for ourselves. Through our work we will try to understand where you stand with these challenges, learn how these problems work in your life, and find ways in which you can reclaim your story with new possibilities.

Whether you have been diagnosed with Adult ADHD, or identify as neurodivergent, or just feel “scattered”, we will work together to disrupt the cycle of blame and shame. I am trained as an ADHD Clinical Service Provider who likes to go beyond strategies and work with clients to re-author new narratives around motivation, productivity and career.

Problems can get in the way with how we communicate and show up in our relationships. I work with individuals, couples, friends and adult siblings to go beyond debate and find ways to foster real conversation. Whether you have trouble dealing with people in your professional or personal life, our work will be focused on helping you feel less stuck in what may feel like endless cycles of miscommunication and misunderstandings. I am well informed how to work with all types of relationships including monogamous, non-monogamous, kink, polyamorous and platonic.

Being part of the LGBTQIA+ community goes beyond who we are attracted to. It affects how we are perceived by our families, workplace and everyday communities. Our lives can sometimes feel like they exist outside the dominant heteronormative narratives, unseen and unheard. As a therapist, my work with with queer folks is always informed, non-judgmental and affirming.

Although my work is centered in narrative therapy, I also borrow from exposure response prevention (ERP) and cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) to work with folks who have unwanted repetitive thinking or behaviors. Together we will get to know what is behind these loop cycles, rituals and phobias and author ways to escape them.

I worked as a creative professional in the advertising and entertainment industries for almost two decades. This experience familiarized me with the specific stressors these professions. From writer’s block and feeling undervalued by an employer to dealing with rejection and imposter syndrome, I understand how complicated these paths can be and how easily one can internalize these challenges.
