Hi, I’m so glad you’re here! I love working with a wide array of humans - kiddos, teens and adults from all walks of life are my jam. I am especially drawn to connecting with folks from diverse cultural backgrounds, individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community, and anyone who feels called to cultivate a deeper relationship with themselves. My approach centers on each person’s unique journey, emphasizing empowerment, inner-child work, and congruence.

My ideal client is navigating anxiety, depression, SPMI or a life transition. They may feel overwhelmed and struggle to find a way forward. What they need most is a compassionate, non-judgmental space to explore their feelings and challenges. They seek practical tools to manage symptoms, build resilience, and regain control. They want to learn healthier coping strategies, improve self-awareness, and develop stronger relationships. Ultimately, they seek a therapeutic partnership that empowers them to make meaningful changes and move toward a more balanced, fulfilling future.

I compassionately welcome those working through life transitions, experiencing depression, anxiety, and those who have been impacted by the effects of traumatic experiences. Often times individuals struggling are feeling disconnected from their authentic self, their creativity, and spirituality. As well as feeling disconnected from family/friends, romantic partners, and communities. I am passionate about working with individuals to find/regain their light, love, vitality, and connection.

After 20 years as a helper in the mental health field, I’ve found that clients who live, think and feel outside of the binary, conventional boxes connect well with my approach. LGBTQQI, Polyamorous/ENM and spiritually inclined humans also seem to align with my approach.

I believe the purpose of counseling is to help you thrive & live a more satisfying, fulfilling life. We are all wired for healing & growth, & I believe you already have this capacity. With me, you can expect connection, guidance, support, & a fresh perspective. I bring an integrative & holistic lens, practical tools, & do not have an agenda in working with you. Therapy is a place for you to heal, grow, explore your soul, release blocked energy, & create new visions for your life. Everyone's journey is different & it is my responsibility to provide you with undivided attention, non-judgment, & a caring, trusting environment.

I work with families, couples or individuals irrespective of diagnosis or the presenting problem. I'm interested in the person, not the label.
From my perspective, psychotherapy is a collaboration. It has been referred to as the "talking cure" because it heals through conversation. Putting troubling thoughts, emotions, and memories into words enables them to be felt and understood more deeply, to be borne with greater resilience, and to facilitate wiser choices. And, the privacy, boundaries, empathy, and safety of the therapeutic relationship can enable even the most shameful and frightening feelings to be faced and worked through.

Sometimes we get stuck. We’ve done everything we know to help ourselves, then comes a time when we need some extra support to figure out the rest. Counseling can be a place to gain clarity about what you're going through and learn how to be your most true and thriving self. I often support individuals and families struggling with anxiety, anger, relationship problems, depression, trauma, and transitions in their lives.

Every individual experiences difficulty in many areas of their life throughout their time. This could include unwanted thoughts, overwhelming changes, or feelings of anxiety. Whatever it may be, we can work together to explore new and healthy ways to cope with your experiences while focusing on your strengths, values, and needs.

I am currently not accepting new clients. I am a Psychologist, helping adults, teens and children ages 7 and older come up with ways of looking at themselves, others and the future that help them feel better about life. Anxiety can lead to avoidance of important activities, or just make life a lot less enjoyable. By overcoming issues such as generalized anxiety, panic attacks, social anxiety, performance anxiety, anxiety about schoolwork and obsessive compulsive disorder, I help kids and adults live in ways that are more meaningful, fulfilling and enjoyable to them.

Seeking therapy and counseling is a courageous act! It can feel vulnerable and uncomfortable confronting the difficulties and angst we are experiencing and seeking support, but for many it is the first step towards healing. If you experience stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, shame, relational difficulties, religious trauma, burnout, and more, therapy and counseling may help. When we feel safe and have the support to courageously examine our lives and ourselves, we naturally move towards healing and discover the strength inside us.

Dear Prospective Client,
I'm writing to you about the idea of starting therapy with someone new, especially someone that you don't know. First of all it's important that you feel very comfortable with that person, like you can talk openly about anything. You want to feel safe. It's hard making that first step, but you can do it and besides it can be really beneficial to your life.

Deep inside each of us is a reservoir of wisdom, of knowing what is true for us. Granted, that inner wisdom maybe be layered over with negative messages, unexamined beliefs acquired years ago, noise from the busy-ness of our lives and the chaos of the world, or personal doubt, lack of confidence, confusion. Being present in the body so that we can access that inner wisdom is a crucial aspect of counseling and doing so can help us find the way forward in life. Learning to be fully present in the moment is a gift we can give ourselves as we live our lives and move toward healing and well-being.

Many of us show the world only a small fraction of who we really are. It's easy to feel the pressure to conform or hide certain aspects of ourselves. My goal for therapy is to provide an opportunity for you to be your complete self, without the fear of judgment or rejection. I hope that working together will not only alleviate the pain and discomfort you may be feeling right now, but also push you to grow in new ways.
