Are you ready to move past trauma, mood disorders, or relationship/attachment issues? Struggling with low self-esteem or a lack of identity? Perhaps you keep feeling stuck, like you're just going through the motions? Regardless the issue, you don't want to stay in therapy forever, and my goal is to help you get to the point where you no longer need my help. I work with individuals and couples, helping them tackle challenges with greater compassion and curiosity. Using evidence-backed therapeutic approaches, we'll utilize techniques you can practice outside of sessions, emphasizing attainable goals and long-term integration.

Schedule now through my website in my bio! You may feel like you keep finding yourself on the same path, no matter how many times you walk off. You may feel like everything inside is a knotted ball of yarn, mixed up and hard to follow. Or maybe you feel like you've run out of ideas on how to change or what to do. It's lonely, confusing, and frustrating to be in this position, like stumbling through a forest with no sun (or mountains!) to tell you which direction you're headed.

Trauma, grief, stress, and life transitions significantly impact our lives and functioning. If unaddressed, these challenges can feel unmanageable. They can cause you to feel hopeless, misunderstood, ashamed, and isolated. They can cause you to feel trapped in patterns of emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, patterns you adapted to cope and survive, but which may no longer serve you. I believe all humans have an immense capacity to heal and grow. I also know that sometimes we get stuck and can benefit from some extra support. If you are feeling stuck, I am here to support you with finding your way out.

Hello and welcome! The human journey is inevitably messy at times. Despite the chaotic and confusing, there is always beauty to be discovered. I believe that every individual is deserving of connection, compassion, healing, and growth - even you! Sometimes it's hard to believe this for ourselves - oftentimes it's even more difficult to know where to start. It may be relieving to hear that you already have the resources within you waiting to be accessed. My approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that creating a safe space for authenticity and collaboration will help us to explore and navigate your unique path to healing.

Life can be challenging and inevitably ends up throwing us curve balls we don't expect or see coming. Because of life's intricacies, sometimes we need a space to come and sort them all out. It is my goal to provide that warm and open space for you. The space to come talk about and process the difficulties you are experiencing and feel heard in doing so. I would love to work alongside of you and collaborate in finding your strengths, learning new coping skills, and moving towards healing and a more fulfilled life.

Many of us feel like we are “stuck in a rut,” collecting some not-so-helpful habits and coping strategies throughout the years like souvenirs from trauma gone by. It's my goal to help you take inventory of what makes you uniquely you, and help you clear out the emotional clutter that may be holding you back. Are you or your child struggling to deal with conflict, or stress, in a way that feels healthy and effective? Have the tensions at home or in your relationship become overwhelming? Are you or your child dealing with self-esteem, identity development, or emotion-regulation challenges?

Do you feel like your family is living in chaos? Is your child or teen struggling with school? Peers? With anxiety? I offer a strength-based and collaborative approach while working with children, teens, adults, and families. I would be honored to help you and your family learn the tools to make and maintain the changes needed to live the life you want to live. Although many therapists, including myself have a reduced fee, services are still not financially accessible for many families. I supervise Master's level interns with a sliding scale between $65-$25 per session. Everyone should be able to access mental health care.

Many common psychiatric symptoms are your body's way of saying things are out of balance. It doesn't mean you need meds, it means you need to learn how to get your body and brain back in balance so you can feel comfortable in your own skin, and become empowered to opt out of chronic illness and lost opportunities.

I provide a safe and calm environment to make it comforting when opening up about trauma or any past challenging events that led them to where they are today. Together, we can set long-term and small-term goals and look at taking small steps to get there. I meet clients where they are at by pointing out their strengths and accomplishments. It's important to work through some of the barriers so that you feel more confident in moving forward.
