About

Anxiety, relationship challenges, or just feeling stuck can take a real toll on your energy, focus, and well-being. I work with adults and teens ready to move beyond these patterns—not just manage them. My structured, evidence-based approach combines CBT, psychodynamic, and narrative techniques. I specialize in anxiety, OCD, grief/loss (including pet loss), men’s mental health, and life transitions, and as a lifelong Washingtonian, I understand the academic and career pressures common in the DC area. Together, we’ll set clear goals and build the insight and tools you need for meaningful, lasting change. I help clients break free from anxious thoughts, unproductive habits, and patterns that keep them feeling stuck. Using a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic insight, we focus on both practical strategies to manage anxiety, stress, and OCD—and the deeper emotional patterns that influence those struggles.
