In a time when life can seem uncertain and confusing, having someone to connect with to converse about personal struggles and fear of the unknown can make life easier to manage.

I enjoy working with individuals ages 12 and up. I am specialized in working with clients with OCD, Anxiety disorders, ADHD, BFRBs (skin picking, hair pulling), insomnia, and parenting support. Often life knocks us down, and my philosophy as a therapist is to assist clients in getting back into their lives as soon as possible. I believe the real “work” of therapy often happens between sessions, so in addition to listening to clients with empathy, I also encourage clients to practice skills and strategies throughout their week.

Please note - I am currently accepting clients, but have limited availability. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I work collaboratively with my clients to support them in their individual process of self-exploration and healing. Counseling offers an opportunity to take a step back and explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a safe, supportive environment. It is an active process where past and present life experiences can be discussed, choices can be evaluated, and skills can be learned and practiced. I believe a positive counseling relationship is critical for progress and growth.

I work with a therapy dog in person. Are you struggling with anxiety and depression making it hard to navigate your day-to-day tasks? Is your past trauma keeping you stuck from living a full life? Are you exploring your sexual or gender identity and concerned about how it will interact with relationships around you? I meet my clients where they are, without judgment, and we work together to create a space for hope and healing.

Relationships can sometimes feel like you are speaking two different languages. You both love each other but argue about the smallest things. Feeling like you have to raise your voice just to be heard? Then feeling hurt because you are still misunderstood?

Being a person in the world today is more challenging than it has ever been. Sometimes we carry habits and beliefs into adulthood that can make it even harder to live well. As we go through life we develop skills and interpret information in ways that help us to survive and cope with our environment. It is the brain's way of protecting us and preventing future pain. None of us are broken, but we may be applying skills and information in the present that are no longer helpful or relevant. I believe that developing awareness and understanding of these core beliefs and instincts is the first step toward healing and creating lasting

Many individuals find themselves struggling with how to get through difficult life events. Maybe you find yourself turning to unhealthy coping mechanisms through the use of drugs, alcohol, or relationships. These events may make it difficult to do even to smallest of tasks, like getting out of bed in the morning or eating. Sometimes it may manifest into not wanting to leave the house, and being fearful of social situations. Taking the first step towards therapy is taking the first step towards bettering yourself and the quality of your life. But what separates me from the rest of the therapists that your looking at?

Have you been told that you need to work harder or be more committed to therapy in order to make progress? That if you would just not be 'resistant', then you would make progress? I believe that if you're faithfully going to therapy and not making progress, it's very likely that you're working on the wrong thing. Instead of figuring out and addressing the root of the problem, you're likely trying to deal with the symptoms of the problem. Like treating cough and congestion when you really should be dealing with the pneumonia that's causing those issues.

The healing process begins with choosing a therapist with whom you are comfortable. You may be overwhelmed by trying to manage problems, conflicts, personal performance, or transitions in your life, and find that the support of family and friends is not sufficient. My approach as a therapist is to provide a safe, supportive, and confidential environment, and to partner with my clients to not only alleviate the presenting symptoms, but also their underlying causes. It is important to me as a therapist that clients feel validated and active participants in their care.
