You're tired of regular "talk therapy" and are sick of being stuck in a cycle that leaves you feeling burnt out. Maybe you are LGBTQ+ or Neurodivergent and need someone who understands the nuances of that. Do you want to learn distress tolerance skills to use in moments where it seems like the overwhelming emotions you feel are a dangerous tidal wave about to crash around you? Are you a caretaker who has discovered how overstimulating parenting is and want to improve your own emotional regulation so that you can help your child regulate? You are capable of the hard things. Let me help you find that capability within yourself!

I'm here for you, whether you're an adult or adolescent, new to therapy or experienced. Therapy should be a safe haven, an empathetic space where you can freely explore the things that hold you back. I strive to create an environment of authentic warmth and compassion, inviting you to courageously delve into all aspects of yourself. You are HEARD.
It's common to feel alone in your struggles, but you don't have to face them alone. With the right therapist, therapy can transform your life from tolerable to thriving. Let's work together to create a life that aligns with what you need. I offer online sessions on most weekdays; give me a call!. Your journey to personal growth and well-being starts now.
