I know life can be really challenging. It’s not always easy. As one journeys through life, there comes a time when we all need the love and support of someone who cares. For this reason, it has always been my passion to help those who are in need of that love and support. With a non-judgmental attitude and a heart of compassion I aim to meet you where you are. My hope is to walk alongside you in an effort to help you achieve your therapeutic goals.

Something feels off. Something in life just is not working. You feel defeated. Despite numerous successes or reasons you feel you should be happy, you are overcome with sadness, guilt, and shame. You find yourself uncomfortable in your own skin, leading you to avoid everyday life, or overindulging in drugs or alcohol to cope. You feel trapped, and unsure how to fix it. When you make the decision to seek help, it can be an intimidating and overwhelming step to take. As a therapist, I strive to create a space that is safe for clients to be themselves and realize their personal vision for change.

Stress, anxiety and other difficult emotions may be a normal part of life, but they don't have to be in the driver's seat on life's journey. Through my 25+ years of experience as a counselor and my personal experience of having to reclaim the driver's seat from debilitating anxiety/depression, I have learned the truth behind Marcel Proust's claim that "The voyage of discovery is not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes". It is my goal to help people gain new "eyes" through which to view current or past experiences.

Does being “Neurospicey” (Neurodivergent) get in the way of feeling connected with others, causing you to feel lonely and hopeless? Are you the caregiver for a child who is Neurodivergent and you feel lost because all the “normal” parenting rules no longer apply? Do you have a loved one who is part of the Neurodivergent community and you want to connect with them but can’t find the right words to say? Regardless of where in the dynamic you are - I’m here to help! I celebrate neurodiversity and am passionate about helping members of the ND community live and thrive in their lives.

I enjoy helping adults, college students, and young adults who experience depression, anxiety, self-harm tendencies/suicidal ideations and adjustment struggles. In the therapy space, I value the importance of having your feelings and experiences validated. When it comes to a typical session with me, we will discuss what is important to you while integrating therapeutic skills you can use outside of our sessions. I am pretty laid back and although I am here to aid you in learning skills and more about yourself, I will lean on you to be the master of your own life.

You want to make changes in your world, but you feel overwhelmed. Feelings of stress and anxiety leave you unsure of where to even start. You would like to talk to someone, but you are afraid of being misunderstood and judged. The loneliness from not being able to open up about what is happening just creates more helplessness, confusion, and pain.

Is fear or anxiety getting in the way of your child enjoying the things they used to? Maybe it’s taking up so much time that they can’t do the important things- like making friends, going to school, or spending time with loved ones. Your child may fear that they will do something they didn’t mean to or something bad will happen, outside of their control. Perhaps they feel stuck doing the same behavior over and over again to try to find relief, just to find themselves scared and worried again. These experiences can be very painful and isolating, and if it’s your child, very confusing. If this sounds like your child, I'm here to help.
