You remember a time when things didn’t feel so out of control, stuck and stressful; and when family conflict, anxiety or constant work stress weren’t the “norm”... but those days feel like a distant memory. I help people just like you: busy parents, professionals and other adults and couples going through stressful transitions. Those who want to feel happier, healthier and thrive in all areas of their life. Whether your goals are achieving overall wellness, overcoming traumatic memories, creating fulfilling personal and work relationships, or simply enjoying your family again, I work to provide the support you need to move forward.

Asking for help isn’t easy. Especially, if you struggle with people pleasing tendencies, have been told you are "too nice", or tend to overthink or be hard on yourself. As a recovering people pleaser, I get it and want to help you feel the freedom to be your authentic self without fear of judgement. Because of this, I have received specialized training in trauma, anxiety, and attachment or relationship issues. I also enjoy incorporating somatic work to help you find balance with your nervous system or "fight, flight, freeze, or fawn" response. I have successfully helped others with this and would be honored to help you too!

Together, we will figure out the root of what’s going on, discover your innate strengths, find your authentic voice, and develop coping skills so you can reconnect with yourself and those you care about.

Sometimes we don't feel connected to ourselves. Our excitement and motivation in life is just gone. Depression, anxiety, and all the "what ifs" set in which become overwhelming. How do I get out of this rut? What can I do to feel better with myself and move forward in life? Why can't I be like others around me? These are hard questions and can feel intense. It can feel overwhelming to do this alone, so I want to explore this with you. Let’s connect with your body and see where you are feeling lost or out of control. Let’s talk about being comfortable with yourself again.

I believe in the power of relationship and connection. Sometimes we get lost in seasons of disconnection - finding ourselves stuck in the same patterns that end in hurt, longing for meaningful relationships that somehow feel out of reach, or wrestling with who we are and what we want out of life. Many of us have lived through experiences in the past or are dealing with challenges in the present that leave us feeling exhausted and alone.

It is important that each family feels understood and supported, and I hope by learning about myself, you gain the confidence to take the first step down what can feel like a challenging path. I have spent the majority of my training specializing in comprehensive psychological evaluations and therapeutic services with children and adolescents. My evaluations focus on Neurodevelopmental Disorders (e.g., Autism, ADHD, Intellectual/Learning Disabilities), mood/anxiety disorders, and general development. While seeing therapy clients is a small portion of my current practice, I enjoy working in the area of anxiety treatment using CBT!

I work with clients experiencing a variety of concerns, including anxiety, depression, disordered eating, body image concerns, trauma, grief, stress, and burnout. Before I became a therapist, I spent nearly a decade as a professional musical theatre actor and director in New York City, which taught me the importance of exploring emotions, making creative connections, and listening with openness and curiosity. Now as a professional counselor, I utilize these skills to help people tap into their emotions and examine their own life stories to create meaningful, lasting change.

Some days do you feel stuck in your own life? Confused about where to go from here? Like you don't have the relationships with others that you had imagined for yourself? I feel passionate about helping others get past these stuck points we all experience. I help adults identify patterns that keep them stuck in ways that just aren't working for them anymore.
