Do you wish that your brain came with an owner's manual? Have your compulsive habits made a mess of your health and your relationships? Does a difficult past keep intruding on your present? I am here to help! My clients start counseling because they feel stuck in patterns of harmful behaviors and negative thinking. They can see where they want to go in life, they just can't seem to make the lasting changes that would allow them to get there. Frequently, they describe feeling overwhelmed and hopeless, unsure that things can ever really improve. Let me help you get unstuck!

I am a mental health professional with over 15 years of experience. You and I will team up to figure out the "how" and "why" of your unique brain, so that you can live the life you want. My approach is to create a safe space where you can be your truest self and stop acting in ways that make your life harder.

If you're looking for a therapist that swears a little, cares a lot, and will not judge you, then you have landed in the right place! I promise, your brain and heart already know what you need; we just need to learn to listen properly. I will help you to get curious about yourself and to learn to live with joy and freedom.

I work with clients that are struggling with thought and behavior patterns that are causing problems in their health, relationships, or jobs. During our first session, we will get a handle on these issues and create a road map for getting your life where you want it to be. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement after that.
