I help college students, graduate students, and university faculty manage stress, cope with painful emotions, and navigate school, work, and relationships.

I also help clients build healthy friendships and partnerships, explore ...

I am particularly well-suited for college students, as I ran a research team with students for more than ten years and won the top mentoring awards at both of the universities where I was a professor. As a former professor, I do have a unique understanding of young adults and their needs. The clients who fit best with me tend to be bright and intuitive and perhaps even “overthinkers” who I often teach to think less, ironically! :) My clients come to me for a number of reasons, but one co...
Feeling burnt out, anxious, or stuck in patterns that just won’t let up? Maybe you’re constantly putting pressure on yourself to do it all and do it perfectly. Or maybe past experiences, stress, or anxiety are making it hard to enjoy college the way you hoped. You don’t have to figure it all out alone. I work with college students navigating trauma, anxiety, eating disorders, identity shifts, and the pressure to succeed—especially athletes, pre-health students, and anyone juggling high expect...

Many of the students I work with are thoughtful, creative, and driven—but they also feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck. Some are dealing with high expectations, self-doubt, or pressure to be perfect. Others feel disconnected from their families or unsure about their identity. I work especially well with students who tend to think and feel deeply, including those who have a strong inner life, creative interests, or complicated relationships with ambition or independence. I often work with wom...

Some days you’re holding it together. Other days it feels like everything’s slipping through the cracks. If anxiety, depression, or relationship struggles are making it hard to focus, connect, or feel like yourself, you’re not alone. Therapy is a place to talk things through without pressure or judgment—to get curious about what’s going on beneath the surface and start feeling more grounded, clear, and in control again. I believe that warmth, creativity and a sense of humor are cornerstones of...
College is a big transition. It might be the first time you're living away from home—figuring out how to balance classes, friendships, roommates, and family expectations, all while trying to keep up and not fall behind. It’s exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming, isolating, or just… a lot. If you’re struggling to find your rhythm, you’re not alone. And if you're an international student, this transition comes with even more layers—adapting to a new culture, navigating visa uncertainty, ...
