I think there is no greater pain in life than bearing an untold story or feeling like you have to go it alone and do your work completely by yourself. As your therapist, I view my role as a fellow travel companion and a guide to help you navigate the terrain of your life. I seek to create a safe space for you to explore your story, create detours where there are obstacles, and create a path to a better future. I enjoy working with folks who not only want to find relief from their problems, but also seek to shift the paradigm of how they see themselves in relation to others and the world.

Our early environment teaches us how to interact with ourselves and others during times of security, as well as moments of vulnerability or overwhelm. Our work together will help you to understand the dynamics under which your sense of self developed, and the relational skills you learned that may or may not be adaptive to your present relationships. Together, we will work to loosen these entrenched patterns to help you rediscover your sense of agency.

My greatest desire as a therapist is to offer a space where you feel seen and heard in your entirety as a human. My hope is to develop a relationship that is completely judgement free, safe, authentic, and sincere so you can dig deeper into understanding the "why" behind self- sabotaging behaviors and thought patterns. Whether you've struggled with a recent tragedy, a relational challenge, anxiety management, depression, substance use, or just need a place for expression- I am here to offer my expertise and walk alongside you at a pace that is right for you.

When we make time to listen to our bodies and emotions, we begin to reconnect with our inherent wisdom. We don't lose touch with this wisdom on our own. Trauma, unhealed wounds, and oppressive systems disconnect us from our wisdom and intuition, and impact our ability to feel at ease. You and your body carry so much, from the grief and resilience of those who came before you, to the stress of everyday life, and each story of pain, joy, and survival that has led you to seek care. It is normal to experience overwhelm, anxiety, disruption, and depression while carrying so much. You weren't meant to carry it all on your own.

My therapeutic orientation is psychodynamic in nature, and based on the observation that people are often unaware of unconscious influences that determine their thoughts and actions. Lack of awareness can often lead to behavior that constrains their ability to fully comprehend or work through the difficulties they are facing. My hope is to help remove problematic symptoms that prohibit individuals from participating in meaningful relationships with themselves and others, while working toward leading a full and productive life as an active and positive contributor to their community.

Life presents its challenges, and in navigating them, having a dedicated space to share your thoughts, emotions, and feelings becomes paramount. My commitment lies in assisting individuals in discovering a sanctuary for self-expression. Whether contending with issues of self-esteem, anxiety, depression, relationships, interpersonal dynamics, or grappling with perceptions of oneself in the external world, the journey can be demanding.

What brings you to seek support right now? Is it difficult to express or find the words? What does it feel like? The work of feeling connected to yourself and others can feel lonesome, however, being heard and understood can have a transformative impact on your experience. The work of feeling at home in yourself is not gotten to alone. Or at least I don’t believe it is solely a solitary path. We are shaped by our relationships and lives. We learn to live with ourselves and each other through a sacred connection of love, awareness, play, and attention.

Life comes with challenges; at times it feels like they keep piling on, making it difficult not to become overwhelmed. This overwhelm can be magnified when we feel as if we’re facing hardship alone. Powerlessness to make a meaningful difference, despite our best efforts, can be disheartening. During these times the weight of our burdens seem unbearable; the path forward unclear. You don't have to navigate this alone. As your therapist, I'll meet you where you are using a trauma-informed, neurobiologically based approach to help you understand how your brain works, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and build skills for managing distress.

My practice is currently full. I help adults increase a sense of stability and resource in times of shift and change. I offer a safe place for you to bring your experience of anxiety, depression, anger, or your struggles with recovery. I work from the perspective that in order to connect with inherent strength and resilience, you don't have to edit or bypass what you're feeling. It's not one or the other. In addition to my work with individuals, I help couples who are struggling find new ways to connect and live with greater ease and joy.

If we are able to feel deeply understood and cared for in a consistent and supportive therapeutic relationship, positive change and growth may occur in a subtle and evolving process as a result of these conditions. In my role as a therapist, my work is to provide these conditions to the best of my ability. Therapy can provide a space in which a trusted other helps you to understand yourself more fully, as well as to consider the stories that you tell about yourself and your life. Such understanding allows us to contemplate how we may begin to believe in more helpful and truthful stories.

Change is inevitable and it may have caused you to feel isolated, anxious or even scared. The loss of control has left many of us yearning to hug friends and/or family for comfort. My hope is to establish a safe, judgment free environment for you to explore the grief and anxiety you may feel. It is in these contexts that we can begin to discover new levels of honesty, awareness, and hopefully self-compassion and a greater sense of alignment with our new realities. I take the role of active listener, reflecting back to you patterns or themes that I notice in the stories or experiences you

I draw on several approaches for treatment including EMDR, mindfulness-based CBT, and traditional talk therapy, tailoring my practice toward the needs of each person. I use a humanistic attachment lens informed by interpersonal neurobiology. I primarily work with people who have complex intersections of identity and those who have experienced trauma. The trauma may surface through symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD, or difficulty managing relationships. I work with a lot of individuals who have experienced complex trauma, developmental trauma, a single traumatic event, emotional neglect, and physical neglect.

I love working with individuals and couples trying to cope with anxiety and stress. My clients might feel stuck in relationships or be struggling with creating healthy boundaries. Over time my clients gain more self-compassion and confidence as we work together on uncovering stories that have contributed to what they’re wrestling with. Many of the mental health struggles we face are rooted in deeper stories that need to be expressed. I also offer EMDR therapy for those wanting to work with issues that feel stuck and immovable.
