Women hire me to help them overcome overthinking. What this looks like is, together, we figure out which thoughts, behaviors, attitudes, and emotions about situations, people, even yourself, are stressing you out and then teach you easy-to-learn, very practical, personalized, evidence-based skills and strategies to deal with them. We'll work hard to get to the root of what's causing you distress.
Moreover, whether you call it anxiety, panic attacks, or nerves, we believe it could be rooted in not knowing how best to handle your sources and symptoms of stress.
To help us determine if we're a good fit for individual therapy, I offer a free 15-minute phone conversation.

Treatment Approach
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Eclectic Therapy Draws from different therapeutic methods based on what fits each client best. It is flexible and personalized rather than following one single model.
- Feminist Therapy Addresses how gender roles, power, and social inequality affect mental health. It empowers clients to challenge limiting beliefs and systems.
- Multicultural Therapy Acknowledges the role of culture, race, and identity in mental health. It values diversity and adapts treatment to each person’s background.
- Neuropsychology Examines how brain function affects thinking, memory, and behavior. It often involves assessment and rehabilitation strategies.
- Psychoeducational Therapy Provides education and coping tools about mental health conditions. It empowers clients with knowledge and practical skills.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.

I offer private, confidential, online individual therapy using a HIPAA compliant platform (NOT ZOOM)
To help us determine if we're a good fit for individual therapy, I offer a free up to 15-minute phone conversation.
I'm especially interested in working with women with job/career stress; women entrepreneurs; women who come from difficult backgrounds (e.g. poverty); culturally/ethnically diverse women; and women who self-identify as lesbian.
I currently only offer online therapy-this saves you time and stress from fighting traffic
