Are traumatic experiences from the past still affecting you today? Do you find excessive worrying keeping you up at night? Are you feeling hopeless about your relationship with food or your body? Perhaps you’re facing a major life change and scared that you won't be able to get through it? If any of these resonate with you, you're definitely not alone! I work with teenagers and adults of all ages who are facing some of these challenges providing guidance, compassion and support throughout their healing journey. If you're wondering if therapy can truly help, I’d be honored to support you in taking the first step.
As an experienced therapist specializing in complex trauma, anxiety and eating disorders, I believe in creating achievable goals with actionable steps. Together, we'll develop skills to shift your story to create a more empowered life on your terms. My aim is to help you gain self-awareness and confidence to navigate life’s inevitable ups and downs of change
Healing unfolds at your pace and in therapy I offer warmth, authenticity, guidance, and even humor as we unpack the difficulties keeping you feeling stuck. I am dedicated to helping clients find their inner strength. If you're ready for change and want to cultivate more meaning in your life—especially in your relationship with yourself and others—let’s talk!
