ADHD

ADHD isn’t just about distraction—it can feel like living in mental overdrive, with racing thoughts, emotional overwhelm, and a to-do list that never ends. For many women, it’s missed for years, often masked by perfectionism, anxiety, or high achievement. I take a comprehensive, personalized approach to adult ADHD, exploring everything from executive function and mood to hormones, sleep, and nervous system regulation. With the right strategies—medication if needed, lifestyle shifts, and brain-friendly tools—you can feel more focused, calm, and in control.

Anxiety

Anxiety can show up as constant overthinking, a restless body, and a mind that just won’t slow down. For high-functioning women, it’s often hidden under a polished surface—but inside, there’s tension, worry, and a relentless fear of getting it wrong. My approach goes beyond symptom management to address the root causes of anxiety, including stress, trauma, perfectionism, and nervous system dysregulation. With the right tools—therapy, integrative strategies, and medication when appropriate—you can move from fight-or-flight to feeling grounded, steady, and capable.

Depression

Depression isn’t always obvious. Sometimes it looks like going through the motions, feeling numb, disconnected, or just… off. You might be doing all the “right” things—career, relationships, responsibilities—but still feel unmotivated and far from yourself. Together, we’ll explore the deeper causes of your symptoms, whether they're tied to hormones, burnout, trauma, or something else. Through a personalized mix of therapy, lifestyle support, and psychiatric treatment, you can reconnect with a sense of joy, vitality, and emotional clarity.

Burnout

Burnout isn’t just stress—it’s what happens when you’ve been running on empty for too long. You might feel exhausted but wired, emotionally flat, irritable, or like your brain is full of fog. The things you used to handle with ease now feel overwhelming, and no amount of sleep or self-care seems to help. Burnout often hides behind perfectionism and imposter syndrome, especially in women used to keeping it all together. I help you get to the root of your burnout—supporting your nervous system, restoring energy, and creating a path back to clarity, balance, and sustainable well-being.

Perfectionism

Perfectionism isn’t just about high standards—it’s the inner pressure to never mess up, never fall short, never let anyone down. It can show up as overthinking, procrastination, burnout, or a constant inner critic that won’t let you rest. Often linked with ADHD and anxiety disorders, perfectionism can leave you feeling like you're always chasing—but never arriving. I help you get to the root of perfectionism and find relief through clarity, compassion, and practical strategies that support both your mind and body.

Imposter Syndrome

Imposter syndrome makes you feel like a fraud, even when you're achieving more than most. It can leave you doubting your worth, fearing exposure, and feeling stuck in a cycle of overworking to prove yourself. Often tied to perfectionism, ADHD, and anxiety disorders, imposter syndrome doesn’t just affect your career—it impacts your confidence, energy, and sense of self. I help you unhook from these patterns by addressing the root causes, so confidence becomes something you feel—not just something you fake.

Life Transitions

Major life shifts—whether chosen or unexpected—can leave you feeling unmoored. A new job, breakup, loss, motherhood, or milestone birthday can stir up uncertainty, self-doubt, and identity questions you weren’t expecting. You might find yourself asking, Who am I now? or feeling like a fraud in a life you’re supposed to feel good about. These are more than growing pains—they're invitations for deeper healing and transformation. I help you make sense of the emotional impact of change, reconnect with your values, and build a grounded, authentic path forward.

Medical + Psychiatric

When physical and mental symptoms collide, it can feel frustrating and confusing—especially when you’ve been told it’s “just anxiety” or your labs are normal. In reality, chronic stress, hormonal shifts, autoimmune conditions, and other health issues can profoundly affect mental health. I specialize in uncovering the complex interplay between body and brain, offering a whole-person approach that addresses both emotional and physical well-being. Together, we’ll get to the root of your symptoms and build a care plan that supports you fully.
