I believe it is my job to collaborate with my clients to create a Narrative that feels authentic and attuned their passions, identities, and values. We often get lost in what we feel like we should or can't do, which confines us in little boxes that make it hard for us to feel vibrant and celebrate our uniqueness. I believe that when we explore and deconstruct the social constructions and dominant discourses in our social-cultural location and biases that don't align with our personal experiences or beliefs we have the autonomy and freedom to get in touch with our most core self and better understand how we interact with our world.

Supporting individuals in their personal evolution, assisting them in developing healthier coping mechanisms, and enhancing self-awareness and self-acceptance is my calling. I enjoy collaborating with anyone who is committed to personal growth and open communication; as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I particularly enjoy working with others in the queer community. I have 12 years of experience providing support to individuals and families facing a broad range of challenges including depression, anxiety, medical issues, end-of-life care/hospice, recovery from abusive situations, trauma, and significant life changes.

Currently, 1-2 month waitlist. I have a special interest in working with clients struggling with depression and/or anxiety. Are these issues keeping you from living the life you desire? Emotional disturbances can have a significant impact on a person's ability to live life to the fullest. When emotional issues interfere with your ability to function it can become challenging to find a clear path forward. Depression, anxiety, and other mood related concerns are a leading cause of difficulty worldwide. Although challenging, there is hope, and talk therapy has increasingly been shown to aid in a person's journey to health.

I specialize in supporting individuals navigating late-diagnosed ADHD and overcoming experiences of anxiety and insecurity.
Does it feel like you keep hitting the same wall of anxiety, doubt, and self-criticism? Maybe you’re generally satisfied with where you’re at in life but can’t seem to stop that nagging feeling that you “should” be doing more. Despite being adaptive, intelligent, and insightful, you still never quite feel "good enough". I want to support you in freeing yourself from the traps of family pressure, cultural expectations, and societal demands while stepping into your inherent worth and self-trust. As your counselor, I'll help you sort through your conflicting feelings, make peace with your past, and embrace your truth.

Through my experience working with folks struggling with issues like depression, anxiety, perfectionism, ADHD, transitions, identity, sex/relational/martial issues, and divorce, I’ve learned how to help folks figure out a) what they want, and b) how to get there.
Feeling stuck and motionless in a relationship is an all-too-common feeling. So many couples struggle with sex issues, talking about vulnerable topics, and having the same fights over and over again. Finding the "right person" and putting in the effort it takes to keep a relationship going is HARD, and our histories and relationship patterns don’t always help us do that. Patterns- not situations- keep us from moving forward. As a licensed psychologist specializing in relationships and sexuality, I’m here to help organize the mess and provide a path forward, whether that’s with couples or individuals who need some guidance.

Life can be challenging. For adults those challenges can include parenting, relationships, job stress, overwhelming emotions, life transitions, and many more. Challenges for children and teens can include school-related issues like academic stress, bullying, peer pressure, general "drama", and others. Ultimately, we are all searching for safety, satisfaction and fulfillment in our lives. Often, however, we are unsure how to deal with the challenges that prevent us from finding what we're searching for. It can be hard to know where to turn for help and hard to ask for that help.

I am currently not accepting new clients, please check back in August/2024. The motives for someone seeking therapy are as unique as the person seeking therapy. Some people desire to process past unresolved issues. Sometimes, people feel like they repeat patterns or are stuck in a situation and don't know how to do something different. Therapy can help a person process troubling and traumatic events that occurred in the past. Counseling can help a person cope with recent upsetting events, such as the death of a loved one, or a sudden transition/loss, such as a relationship breakup.

My practice is not accepting new clients at this time. I commend you for being here. It takes courage and strength to ask for help. I believe as human beings we are resilient and often intuitively know what we need to do to heal. Unfortunately sometimes that healing can be thwarted by seemingly insurmountable barriers such as depression, anxiety, history of trauma, or substance abuse. Let's work together to create more effective coping skills so you may actually live, rather than just survive, your life. I find that the best results in treatment stem from focusing on people's strengths rather than their weaknesses.

I believe that we all hold the answers to life’s questions deep within ourselves. That buried beneath the layers of self-doubt, fear, shame, there is an inner wisdom that can guide us not only towards healing, but towards an embodied life aligned with our values. As a therapist, I see my role as a collaborative guide on your journey towards reconnecting with this "felt sense" or intuition. Healing takes place when we are seen, validated, and accepted for all that we are, and I am passionate about providing a non-judgemental, safe space that celebrates the fullness of your humanity.
