Emotional scars, many of us have some internally. Some of the “scars” may be buried, suppressed, or repressed. We push it aside to get through our days until we realize it is bleeding into our life, relationships, work, and/or school. We see the scars (i.e., stress, trauma, anxiety, depression, past) as a nuisance, which they can be. If we take a moment to look at the scars, they may be telling us what you need in order to heal and grow. I am here to help you find your inner strength to overcome these scars and life challenges.

Braving the unsteady waters of healing is an act of self-love. I believe in the transformative power of turning our attention inward to shed light on all parts of self—the beautiful, the “ugly,” the shameful, the resilient. From my experience as both a therapist and a fellow human on this path, I have witnessed the profound power of allowing yourself to be seen, truly seen, in the presence of another. It is my commitment to work together to create an environment where you feel safe, honored, and sacred. This is where our “heart-work” begins.

I believe taking the necessary time to provide attention to yourself takes courage. We have become too good at distracting ourselves with the every day demands of life and do not take time to nurture our own needs.

I have experience working with many adults, young adults, and children struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, addiction, and life transitions. By allowing me to help you trust the process of therapy we can work on what your needs may be. When we listen wholeheartedly without judgment, we can become aware and attempt to understand what someone may be feeling. The value of helping others can also give someone hope that there is something to look forward to. That's what drives me toward empathy and compassion.

Navigating therapy can often feel intimidating and confusing. Taking up space and speaking your truth is challenging, especially when problems and experiences that may be distressing or painful are involved. But this process isn’t one that has to be tackled alone nor are you meant to. My approach is empowering and encouraging, and I strive to provide a warm, safe, and judgment-free space that allows us to collaboratively uncover your inherent strengths and build the life you envision for yourself.

Currently accepting new clients! Sometimes life in general can feel overwhelming. This feeling can intensify if you also struggle with unprocessed trauma and/or feelings of low self-worth. My clients have either had a chaotic childhood or a single traumatic experience that has led to self-consciousness, self-sabotage or simply difficulty handling stress. They have so much compassion for others, yet struggle to turn it inward. Their coping strategies "make sense" but they struggle to believe in their own worth. The individuals I work with are hoping to find peace, stability and increased self-esteem.
