Who & What I Treat:

Cogntive Behavioral Therapy in Boca Raton & Across Florida

You may look like you have it together on the outside — but inside, it feels overwhelming.

I work with adolescents and adults who are struggling quietly with anxiety, depression, OCD, and addiction. Many of my clients are high-functioning, responsible, and used to pushing through — but they’re tired of living in survival mode.

If you’re here, something isn’t working anymore. And you don’t have to figure it out alone.

I Specialize In Working With:

  • Anxiety & Panic Disorder

  • OCD

  • Depression

  • Addictions and Substance Abuse

  • Phase of life transitions

  • Codependency and Relationships

Anxiety & Panic

You might experience:

  • Constant overthinking

  • Racing thoughts

  • Physical symptoms like chest tightness or nausea

  • Trouble sleeping

  • Fear of losing control

Anxiety can feel exhausting and isolating. Together, we work to calm your nervous system, understand what’s driving the anxiety, and build tools that actually help — not just temporarily distract.

OCD & Intrusive Thoughts

OCD is often misunderstood.

It may look like:

  • Intrusive, unwanted thoughts

  • Mental rituals

  • Reassurance seeking

  • Checking, counting, or repeating behaviors

  • Fear-based avoidance

You may feel ashamed of your thoughts. You may wonder, “Why can’t I just stop?”

OCD is treatable. With structured, evidence-based approaches, we can reduce the power those thoughts have over you.

Depression

Deression isn’t always sadness.

It can look like:

  • Low motivation

  • Irritability

  • Emotional numbness

  • Guilt or self-criticism

  • Feeling disconnected from yourself or others

If getting through the day feels heavy, therapy can help you slowly rebuild energy, clarity, and direction.

Addiction & Substance Use

Sometimes coping turns into something that feels hard to control.

You might:

  • Drink more than you intend to

  • Use substances to numb anxiety or stress

  • Feel stuck in cycles of shame

  • Worry your habits are escalating

We approach addiction with honesty and without judgment. The goal isn’t shame — it’s understanding what the behavior is trying to solve and building healthier alternatives.

Who I Often Work With

  • High-achieving professionals

  • College students & adolescents

  • Women navigating stress and burnout

  • Individuals dealing with intrusive thoughts

  • Adults questioning their relationship with alcohol

  • Clients who feel “functional” but deeply overwhelmed

You do not have to be in crisis to seek therapy.

You just have to be ready for something to change.

You Don’t Have to Keep Managing This Alone


Therapy is not about fixing you.

It’s about helping you understand yourself differently — and building real tools to move forward.

Who I Often Work With

My practice is intentionally focused. I work best with individuals who are thoughtful, self-aware, and ready to do meaningful work — even if they feel overwhelmed right now.

High-Achieving Professionals

Many of my clients are successful on paper.

They are executives, attorneys, entrepreneurs, healthcare providers, business owners, or leaders in their field. They manage teams, families, and responsibilities with competence — yet privately struggle with anxiety, overthinking, perfectionism, or burnout.

They are used to performing. Therapy becomes the one place they do not have to.

Women Navigating Pressure & Invisible Load

I work with women who carry a quiet intensity.

They are balancing careers, parenting, expectations, and internal standards that are nearly impossible to meet. From the outside, they appear capable and composed. Inside, they may feel chronically tense, self-critical, or emotionally depleted.

We work to untangle the pressure and create space for something steadier and more sustainable.

Individuals With Intrusive Thoughts & OCD

Many of my clients have spent years silently battling intrusive thoughts, mental rituals, and shame.

They are intelligent and rational — which makes the experience even more confusing. They often tell me, “I know this doesn’t make sense, but it feels real.”

Our work is structured, evidence-based, and deeply compassionate. OCD loses power when it is understood and treated correctly.

Clients Questioning Their Relationship With Alcohol or Substances

Not everyone who struggles with substance use fits a stereotype.

Often, it’s the high-functioning professional who pours a drink to “turn off” anxiety. Or the person who looks composed in public but relies on something privately to cope.

My approach is direct yet nonjudgmental. We examine patterns honestly while building healthier, sustainable coping strategies.

Adolescents & Young Adults Under Pressure

I also work with teens and young adults navigating academic stress, identity development, social anxiety, and family expectations.

These clients are often bright, sensitive, and overwhelmed by the pace of modern life. Therapy provides a contained, stabilizing space to build resilience and confidence.

Individuals Who Appear “Fine” — But Don’t Feel That Way

Many of my clients are not in visible crisis.

They are functioning.

They are responsible.

They are showing up.

But they are tired of living in constant internal tension.

If you are looking for thoughtful, individualized therapy in Boca Raton or throughout Florida — and you value depth, privacy, and evidence-based care — my practice may be a good fit.
