Life throws us various challenges. Sometimes these challenges come in the form of a life transition, an interpersonal conflict, or a persistent mental health concern. Therapy offers us an opportunity to explore these challenges and move through them in an intentional manner.

Therapy is not one-size-fits-all, but rather it is shaped by your needs and life experiences. Starting therapy can be daunting but I am here to make it feel less intimidating. It is my purpose to find what sets everyone apart, helping you discover and develop the tools you have within you. We are all human. With that comes imperfections, differences, and experiences that impact who we are. Therapy is a non-judgmental space to remind the inner critic that it does not belong. Humanity is strength. I value showing up authentically and genuinely. I am human too, imperfections and all, and I seek to remind you that you are not alone.

I believe in the power of therapy and I approach the therapeutic relationship with warmth and authenticity. I work hard to foster a therapeutic space where clients feel heard, supported, and free to explore, question and process. Sometimes people hope to use therapy as a space to build awareness and talk through things, other times people are looking for a space that is more skill-based, directive, and structured. Therapy is a collaborative process. As a clinician, it is important to me to help create a space that feels most beneficial for the client and their needs.

People who spend long stretches of time in childhood living with unresolved problems may discover they grow up to become adults who carry those same mysteries inside. When individual problem solving becomes too much, therapy can help. This might look like raising curiosity around the subjects of trauma, mood and body-related symptoms and exploring to what degree it is possible to build new relationships across these domains.

You’re tired of feeling like thoughts about food and your body dictate how you spend your day. It feels like you cannot escape the voice in your head that tells you that you are not thin enough, you ate too much, and the most important thing about you is the way you look. The truth is, your body is not the problem - It never was. Our culture is structured to make us fit inside narrow constructs that oppress who we are. We will work toward body liberation. Body liberation is the freedom from social and political systems of oppression that designate certain bodies as more worthy, healthy, and desirable than others.

Are you feeling lost, stuck, or overwhelmed? Is it difficult to get motivated or know what your purpose or plan is in life? Are you struggling in school, your career or relationships? Maybe you're wondering if you'll make it through one more semester, ever find a career you enjoy, or have healthy relationships. Sometimes life can feel like too much and it's easy to get overwhelmed and lost in the sea of decisions and expectations, especially in a world like we’re facing today. It's also possible for things to be different.

Do you consider yourself a people pleaser? Is it hard to prioritize yourself without feeling guilty? Do you struggle to say no or tell people how you really feel? Are you trying to heal from emotional wounds from a loved one? Many of my clients say they feel stuck in a difficult relationship with their parent, spouse, or other loved one. They feel the stress, frustration, and resentment building but they "don't like confrontation" so they become exhausted and have little hope that things can change. They suffer from low self-esteem, overwhelm, and indecisiveness.

If you're feeling burned out, stressed, or overwhelmed, I'm glad you're here. Maybe you're struggling with anxiety, feelings of low self-worth, or with relationships (family, friends, or significant others). Burnout and stress can show up in dissatisfaction with our body image or a difficult relationship with food. Maybe you're feeling stuck or unhappy with your current job. While it is normal and natural to experience discomfort, I am confident we can work together to help you feel more at ease more of the time and to connect your life with your values.
