Counseling is collaborative, meaningful, and life-changing. As a therapist, I strive to create a compassionate and nonjudgmental space where you can explore a range of concerns and be your most authentic self. I enjoy working with preteens, teens, adults, couples and families on a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, neurodivergence, parenting, and TBI. I also have a Master's in Theology and work with clients who are dealing with issues related to their spirituality or have experienced spiritual or religious trauma.

Life is full of challenges, but being happy shouldn't be one of them! Whether your unhappiness is defined as an adolescent suffering from bullying, a spouse in a marriage that's lost its passion, a parent concerned with dysfunction in your family, or an individual struggling with grief, depression, or anxiety, I am here to help. I believe therapy is a place to help uncover your truths, not create them. We all have the tools necessary to be our best selves, sometimes we just a little guidance. While children are my main clientele, I have a heart for anyone who is ready to challenge their potential and unlock true happiness.

Do you suspect your negative moods, thoughts, and behaviors stem more from the difficulties of being a human being than on having a mental illness? Is it hard to find people who understand your pain? If so, I'm glad our paths have crossed. I focus on depression, addictions, and anxieties that have existential roots. I enjoy working with people fighting for recovery and those struggling with suicidality, aging, terminal illness, grief, loneliness, death anxiety, and loss of meaning. I believe in building new skills. But my ultimate aim is to help you find and liberate your higher Self. Together, we can get better results for you.

Relationships--and life!--can be hard to navigate. Sometimes, you may feel lonely, down, or stuck in a life that you don't even recognize anymore. You may need a space to explore possibilities for change and someone to listen and offer hope. I work with individuals, couples, and families who are seeking to improve their lives. You don’t have to stay stuck in patterns that aren't working for you or your relationship, or in anxiety or depression that keep you from really living. Therapy can empower you and give you the tools you need to find the happiness, peace, and freedom you desire.

Seeking counseling is a very personal decision. Finding the right provider can be the most important step in the healing process. I believe I have helped so many clients because I use an array of tools and methods which I tailor to a client's unique goals. My approach is to work hard to understand a client's perspective and values. Sometimes this means helping the client explore and discover what that is for themselves. I lead AND follow - I may prompt, encourage, and confront, but I follow a client's pace (willingness and readiness) to delve into the issues.

My ideal client is one who is ready for change. I don't know many people who change when they are comfortable. By the time an individual or couple walks into a counseling office, they are usually in enough discomfort with their current reality that they are ready to work towards something new. I want to join with clients to identify what is not working, the source of their discomfort, and help set them up for and walk with them into successful healing, change and overall health.

Please come see me even if you have tried therapy many times but still haven't given up on healing! My goal as a therapist is to have a large bag of tools for you so that we can find a technique that you respond to best. I love working with creative people, people who are suffering from anxiety, depression, conflict, people who have chronic pain despite medication adherence and people who are just plain confused about why they feel the way they do. I don't believe that any one approach works for every person, and want to work with you collaboratively to find out what it is that you need for your unique life story.

Experiencing pain that leads you to seek counseling can be a valuable gift. By identifying and working through unsettling memories that cause mental distress, you can open up infinite possibilities and transition from a narrative of separation, which can feel like rigidity and chaos, to a narrative of integration, which can be experienced as the quietude of the heart.

I am committed to helping individuals facing adversity find peace and reach their therapeutic goals within their unique contexts. My work focuses on providing accessible counseling services that draw from various therapeutic modalities, with a special interest in working with neurodiverse individuals and the queer community. I believe in helping clients navigate their emotional and psychological challenges in a client-centered and validating manner, regardless of their background. I see myself as a guide, not a teacher, recognizing that clients are the experts in their own lived experiences.
