I see my work with individuals and couples as collaborative and active. Often people feel stuck in their ways of relating and wonder how to create more satisfying connections with spouses, parents, children, friends, etc. I believe that people are drawn toward health and intuitively know when it is time to make changes in their lives. While it is often feelings of sadness or dissatisfaction that bring people to an initial therapy session, this is the first step toward health and feeling better. True change is possible and
the process of therapy can make it happen.

Are you an adolescent or young adult—or the concerned parent of one—who struggles to cope with academic and social pressures? Perhaps underlying trauma has manifested into anxiety, depression, substance abuse, or other self-harming behaviors that interfere with their ambitions and dreams for the future. Taking a brain-based approach to therapy, my passion is helping teens and young adults work through difficult experiences to learn how to thrive instead of survive and get their lives back on a positive trajectory. As someone who has worked at my own healing, I've experienced how powerful and life-changing healing from trauma can be.

Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, or ADHD that affects your ability to function in your relationships, your work, and all the things you need to do to get through the daily grind? Do you feel exhausted and overwhelmed, wondering if there's even a light at the end of the tunnel? Do you ever wonder if life really can get better? Many people are struggling with anxiety and depression. Others are trying to overcome childhood abuse and trauma, and still others are trying to overcome the shame and frustration of constantly struggling with accomplishing their day-to-day tasks. I believe that there is hope for a better life.

If you have tried traditional "talk therapy" in the past and are still stuck, I can help! If you're struggling with anxiety, addiction, or trauma, I encourage you to try a different approach. Together we will dive deeper to get to the root cause rather than immediately trying to fix the problem. It's always more complex than it appears on the surface and this work takes time and effort. I offer more expressive and experiential modalities to help you make meaningful, lasting changes and take you beyond just talk therapy. I take a holistic and integrative approach and see you as a whole person and not just a person with "issues."

Current Openings! I work with clients who are struggling with the effects of chronic stress, trauma, and difficult family or close relationships to have greater self-worth and compassion in their present life. I can help clients learn to sort through and manage the overwhelming or confusing emotions, and the outdated beliefs & behavioral habits that stem from trauma, anxiety and depression. I often help clients who come from abusive family backgrounds where their emotions didn't matter, or were dismissed, to learn more about themselves, feel more belonging, and to take action toward their true goals and values.

Choosing a therapist isn’t easy, and it’s important to find someone who really "gets" you. If that ends up being me, I’d love to help. But even if it’s not, I’m really glad you’re here taking this step, and I hope you find the support that feels right. My approach to therapy is warm, nonjudgmental, and client-centered. It is my goal to meet you wherever you’re at, and to make sure that you always feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. I blend evidence-based techniques with a down-to-earth perspective in our work together.

For me, there is no ideal client. To some extent, everyone is on a spectrum of depression and anxiety, and I seek to work with clients who need assistance becoming oriented toward improvement. I have personal and professional experience and understand how difficult it is to find someone patient enough to grow alongside a client through the therapeutic process. I want to work alongside you to help you live a happy, meaningful life with these conditions.
