Please do not let cost keep you from therapy! I am more than happy to work at a reduced fee. Just ask! My clients seek support for overcoming trauma and PTSD, enhancing coping skills, and building a strong self-image as they navigate through life transitions, managing anxiety and depression. They may be individuals with ADHD or OCD who are looking for strategies to manage their symptoms, or LGBTQ+ clients exploring identity. Each person, regardless of their challenge, desires to find inner peace, resilience, and joy. My goal is to provide a safe space for clients to come as they are.

Waitlist for new clients
Are you tired of having to educate people about your non-mainstream feeling and labels? It's exhausting to live in a world that asks us to mask our true identities, needs, and the most unique and beautiful parts of ourselves. We all deserve a safe space where we can explore the masks that we wear and the selves beneath them. I have lived experience with neurodivergence, dissociation, polyamory, and am queer and nonbinary, so I understand how valuable it is to have a therapist who understands intersectional experiences and can provide a space for non-judgmental authenticity in healing.

Difficulty Finding A Therapist? Sessions Now Available In Person or Online. When we are stuck in the midst of problems, it is often difficult to have hope. It may feel like things will never change. Being stuck prevents us from seeing our choices, so we may try to resolve a problem by doing something that we have already tried. This is normal, but sometimes normal stops working. So when life gets chaotic - or just plain crazy - and what we have tried has failed, consider therapy to become unstuck. I am here to help you untangle yourself from difficult situations, self-sabotaging behaviors or emotional angst that makes life hard.

Anger. Guilt. Resentment. These are the common themes we all struggle with, today. Sadness is all too real when we hurt, and when we do not cope well, or do not know how to cope with our anger, guilt, and/or resentment, we can become depressed. What you will see, is a vicious cycle; a depressed person then becomes angry, and resentful, and can start to feel guilt. We are all able and capable of making better decisions for ourselves and for our loved ones. There is no shame in asking for help...only regret in never trying. I can help you.
