I work with women wanting healthy relationships and a renewed sense of vitality and life satisfaction. If you struggle with chronic anxiety, depressiveness, or unfulfilling relationships, I provide a warm and safe space to share your experience and work through issues. Two of the greatest gifts therapy can offer is resolving unfinished business and experiencing a sense of 'okayness' even in the midst of life's challenges. I will invite you to explore where you feel stuck or wounded; and will assist you in releasing distressing emotion, so that you can move forward to create the life and relationships you want for yourself.

Hi there! I'm glad you're here! I want to talk about you for a sec, or people like you. Millennials who are trying to navigate a really difficult world. You’ve probably come to a place of exploring your inner self and maybe feeling like, things need to shift or change. You’re invested and interested in doing the work in therapy and are hoping the process is led with a sense of warmth and openness. You enjoy a no-nonsense but compassionate approach to things and are open to exploring and discussing hard topics, with some humor (and expletives) sprinkled in.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor I specialize in working with individuals and couples that have been impacted by trauma. I believe we are shaped by our experiences and that each client is unique. There is not a “one size fits all” approach to trauma treatment, which is why I utilize an eclectic approach that focuses on each client’s needs. I use an individualized approach that includes Internal Family Systems (IFS), narrative therapy, and attachment theory to inform treatment. I also offer individual case consults and work with organizations as a consultant and trainer to improve understanding around trauma response.
