Unfortunately, we don't always stop feeling like "the weird kid" after we leave high school. Simply trying to change our way of thinking and doing doesn't always beat that nagging feeling of "not-enoughness". Whether that’s a phrase you’ve been told by parents, teachers, bosses, or yourself, it’s almost impossible to grow when you weren’t led to believe in yourself. White-knuckling through everything - jobs, relationships, social situations - it feels like you’re always working the hardest and never getting far enough. Mix in neurodivergence, grief, and only-childness - our anxiety around "being different" is off the charts.

I work with people who are looking to understand what they’re struggling with so that they can live a more fulfilling and satisfying life. Together we’ll try to understand the issue that brought you to therapy, and other issues that may come to the surface along the way. With insight often comes the knowledge of what you would like to be different, or how to best manage the circumstances you’re facing.

While the journey to self-discovery may be a life long process, we can utilize the power that comes from knowledge of self, our relationships, and experiences, to make the best choices for our authentic selves. This can also bring awareness to what parts of ourselves need nurturance, acceptance, and healing. My goal in counseling is to create a safe space where clients can explore themselves with curiosity and support. I have a passion for providing affirming counseling for BIPOC, Neurodiverse, and LGBTQIA+ populations. I work with teens, adults, relationships, sex therapy, and the complexities of the human experience.

I truly believe it is never too late to learn about yourself and take steps toward a full, meaningful life. We may be a good match if you are experiencing anxiety, life transitions, grief or loss, or if you want to increase kindness, compassion, and care toward yourself (yes, yourself!) and others. I provide Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which integrates mindfulness, personal values, and taking active steps to get unstuck. My clients find that it is very possible to learn skills to reduce anxiety, improve communication, and change unhelpful life patterns.

Does it feel like life keeps happening to you and you struggle with feeling enough or confident to change things? This often stems from past experiences people left you feeling unloved, insignificant or inadequate. You have based your life on other's views & actions, but it's time you live for you. I help you transform into the version of you who is confident in all environments and situations. This lays the foundation for building authentic & healthy relationships with others, especially your parents. I’ve struggled with depression, anxiety, & poor family relationships so I know it can feel defeating, but it’s possible to overcome.

As a client-centered therapist, I believe in the human capacity to "self-actualize." In psychology, self-actualization is achieved when you're able to reach your full potential. I have learned that we are more alike than different in this work. Most people want to feel seen, heard, loved, valued, protected, and connected. Where one is missing, there is usually an amplification in anxiety. I am in the empathy business. I use connection and evidence-based treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to help clients clarify their "why" and navigate a path to deeper fulfillment—professionally and personally.

Motherhood is harder than you thought it would be. You wanted this, so you should feel joy, right? And you shouldn't feel sad or angry, but you do. That other mom told you they instantly fell in love when they held their baby, but you're worried you didn't feel that. You do self-care when you can and even tried meditation to feel calmer, but it doesn't work. You're overwhelmed. You miss how easy things used to feel. Maybe you feel that being a mom isn't what you thought it was or maybe it isn't for you - yet you're here. It’s confusing. You wonder if it gets easier. You deserve relief. You're not alone. It gets better.

As a therapist specializing in caregiving, my passion lies in helping individuals who selflessly devote themselves to the care and well-being of their loved ones. Caregivers are the unsung heroes of our society, and my mission is to provide you with the support, guidance, and understanding you deserve. My journey into the work of caregiving began with a profound realization of the challenges caregivers faced within my own family. I witnessed firsthand the physical, emotional, and psychological toll caregiving can take on individuals and families.
