Individual Therapy, Built Around How You Actually Get Unstuck

I offer individual therapy for adults in Florida or Delaware, entirely by telehealth. Below is what I focus on and how I work: not a diagnostic checklist, just an honest look at what's probably brought you here.

People come to me carrying different stories, but a few patterns show up again and again. See if any of this sounds like you:

Anxiety & the Overthinking Spectrum

Anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and chronic overthinking. Imposter syndrome, the sense that your achievements passed on a technicality rather than something you actually earned. Difficulty making decisions or trusting your own judgment, even when you're objectively capable.

Trauma & Difficult Past Experiences

Past experiences, big or small, that still affect how you think, feel, or relate to others now. Difficult family or childhood dynamics. Single distressing events. The lingering effects of relationships that shaped you in ways you're still working through.

Grief & Loss

The death of someone close to you. The loss of a relationship, an identity, or a future you expected. Grief that doesn't fit a timeline, or that others expect you to have moved past already.

Life Transitions & Identity

Major life changes: a career shift, becoming a parent, a breakup or divorce, a move, getting older. The disorientation of not knowing who you are outside of a role or routine that just ended.

Self-Worth & Burnout

Chronic self-criticism, feeling disconnected from yourself, or running on empty while still performing fine on the outside.

This isn't a checklist for self-diagnosis. It's a description of the kind of work I do, so you can get a feel for whether it matches what you're looking for.

Brainspotting

Brainspotting was originally developed specifically as a trauma therapy, and it's still one of the more established approaches clinicians reach for with trauma work. But I don't only use it for trauma, it's just as useful for anxiety, perfectionism, grief, or any place where you feel stuck in a way that talking alone hasn't been able to shift. Here's the idea behind it: where you're looking can affect what you're able to access emotionally, even the stuff you can't put into words, and it uses that connection to reach feelings and memories that are still stuck.

In session, that might look like following a point with your eyes while I hold space for whatever comes up, a memory, a feeling, a sensation in your body, or sometimes nothing you can name at all. It's slower and quieter than a typical talk-therapy conversation. You don't need the right words. Your brain and body do most of the work, I'm just there to hold things steady.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

IFS starts from a simple idea: you're not just one voice in your head, you're several. An inner critic. A people-pleaser. A part that keeps you busy so you don't have to feel something hard. A part that's still carrying something old. None of these parts are the enemy, even the annoying ones. They all showed up to help you survive something, even if they're not helping anymore. I lean on IFS especially with people who've already done a lot of self-analysis, who can explain their patterns fluently but still feel stuck inside them.

In session, we get curious about these parts instead of fighting them. We're not trying to silence your inner critic, we're trying to understand what it's protecting you from, and build a relationship with it from a calmer, more grounded place, what IFS calls “Self.” That shift tends to create more internal choice than analysis alone does.

Trauma-Informed CBT

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how your thoughts, feelings, and actions are connected, and a lot of people already have a rough sense of how it works, it's the most familiar of the three. I bring a trauma-informed lens to it, which means we don't stop at “let's think about this differently.” We look at what's underneath the thought first, and we move at whatever pace your nervous system can actually handle.

who my practice serves

I offer individual therapy only, not couples, family, or group sessions. And I can only work with you while you're physically in Florida or Delaware, entirely over telehealth.
