Hi there, I'm Jay!

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who keeps therapy real, down-to-earth, and practical. I specialize in trauma, ADHD, and life transitions, and my goal is to help you build tools you can actually use in everyday life. I bring a balance of professionalism and authenticity, creating a space where you can feel comfortable being yourself.

My focus

I work with kids, teens, and adults navigating trauma, ADHD, anxiety, depression, or everyday chaos. I also work with families building healthier relationships and communication. Many clients come in feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like they've tried everything. I specialize in breaking things down into manageable steps so change feels possible.

My approach

My approach is collaborative and practical. I use CBT, trauma-informed care, and psychoeducation on how the brain and body respond to stress. I ensure what we do in session translates into daily life tools. We'll break down big goals into achievable steps, building your confidence and resilience.
