Many of the people I see are feeling overwhelmed as they navigate work, relationships, friendships, figuring out who they want to be, recovering from trauma, overcoming depression or anxiety, or beating an addiction, all while trying to keep their grades up and focus on school. Emerging adulthood is a challenging time full of different kinds of transitions and challenges, and it can be stressful to try to keep on top of everything when it feels like life is pulling you a million different direct...
Now Accepting New Clients! You crave conversations about the universe, meaning, and purpose. You feel most alive and at peace while creating. Discussing the weather kills your soul a bit.

The sun goes down and you're desperate for sleep. Unfortunately, this is when your thoughts speed up. You're constantly thinking. You think about how much you think.

I’m a Top Psychologist, Therapy Expert, and Mental Health Specialist, and I understand overthi...
It feels like no matter how hard you try, somehow you always end up right back where you started. Plagued by nagging self-doubts that say you aren’t good enough, strong enough, or smart enough, you wonder how anyone could really love you. Fearful that if other people knew the “real” you, they’d turn away. Bending and contorting yourself to be what others think you should be, you end up feeling anxious or depressed most of the time. And then there are those experiences that you don’t talk about. ...

Do you constantly feel like no one gets you? Or how you never seemed to fit in and were picked on because of how you look, act, and think? That loneliness feels crushing. You've probably felt ashamed of who you are. Maybe over the years, you've tried to be "normal" and realized your life feels empty and inauthentic. Or maybe you've resisted mainstream society, but it's left you socially isolated, depressed, anxious, perhaps even traumatized. You are not alone. My goal as a counselor is to give y...
