A Strategic Partner for the High-Achieving Mind

The Intersection of Ambition & Anxiety

I founded Evolve Behavioral Health to serve a specific demographic: The High-Achiever.

My clients are smart, ambitious, and capable. The same personality traits that make them brilliant and successful are often the same traits that cause suffering when life gets messy. The desire for control, perfectionism, high standards, performance, and expectations can all be immense strengths. They can also lead to burnout, anxiety, or depression when not well-managed. 

I specialize in the “High-Achieving Mind” because I know the terrain. I understand the specific suffering of the professional who tries to “outwork” anxiety, perfectionism, and/or OCD. I also understand the unique grief of fertility struggles and IVF. This is often the intersection where high-performance meets biology and you can no longer optimize, track, and execute your way to success.

My goal is not to lower your standards or dull your ambition. It is to help you understand how your brain works you can turn down the volume on unhelpful thought and behavioral patterns.

More Than "Talk Therapy"

High-achievers often avoid therapy because they fear unstructured venting. My approach is different. I operate as a “Consultancy for the Mind,” combining the validation of a therapist with the strategy of a coach.

As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist (PhD), I utilize evidence-based interventions to treat the root of the issue, not just the symptoms.

My Clinical Specializations:

  • Anxiety & OCD: Moving beyond generic stress management to clinically treat the rigid, ritualistic loops that keep you stuck. Helping professionals and students manage imposter syndrome and burnout without sacrificing their career trajectory.
  • Perinatal Mental Health: specialized support for the folks working to expand their families, navigating postpartum (including postpartum OCD, anxiety, depression), and managing the ups and downs of infertility/the IVF process.

Education & Training

  • Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology: The George Washington University

  • Licensed Clinical Psychologist: Serving Illinois, Virginia, DC, and 43+ PSYPACT states.

  • Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C)

  • Academic Affiliation: Georgetown University Student Health Partner

Built for the High-Achiever

I designed Evolve as a virtual-first practice for a specific reason: Efficiency.

High-achievers do not have time for commutes. Whether you are logging on from a corporate office in Chicago, a dorm room, or a nursery in D.C., I provide a private, accessible space for you to do this work without disrupting your schedule.

The online portal additionally has 24/7 real-time availability for adding a additional appointments or meeting rescheduling requests.
