About

I'm a therapist and coach who loves blending both worlds, because sometimes you need to process, and sometimes you just need a plan. I work with adults navigating anxiety and sleep struggles, and I bring specialized sleep training into my work to offer something a little more targeted than talk therapy alone. I'm always growing, whether that's through mentorship, supervision, or connecting with other clinicians who are figuring this all out too. If you're a fellow therapist, supervisor, or someone who just wants to talk about the intersection of mental health and rest, I'd love to connect.
