Waitlist for new clients
*Waitlist Only* Are you coping with stress, relationship difficulties, or loss? Feeling overwhelmed or consumed by intense emotions and thoughts? Distressed by memories of the past or worries about the future? We all need help navigating these understandable human struggles. Maybe you're aware of what isn't working and want help figuring out how to take steps toward change. Maybe you're confused about why you feel so stuck or unhappy. Maybe you have already invested time, money, and energy, with mixed results or limited success. It's common to feel uncertain about how to move forward or whether therapy is the right next step.

I specialize in working with those who have anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, family issues, and relationship issues.
Hello friends! It can be hard to get help sometimes, but taking that first step is super important. Collaboration, empathy, trust, and unconditional positive regard are all important in helping you on your journey to be a better version of yourself. I provide all of these qualities while creating a safe environment for you to talk about what ever you want to talk about. Sometimes it can feel weird to talk to a total stranger, but know I’m here with you every step of the way to help you reach your goals.

I am particularly passionate about anxiety, depression, eating disorders & body image, relationship issues, life transitions, spirituality, and OCD.
It is an honor to walk alongside others as they navigate a variety of life experiences and challenges. I believe therapy creates space for people to learn more about themselves, their story, and how they relate to others while also providing opportunities to re-examine and change thought patterns, behaviors, and relationships. I am committed to offering compassion, support, and empowerment. I primarily work with teenagers, college, and graduate students.

If you or someone you know is struggling with anxiety or depression, feeling stuck in life or unclear on what is important to you, or navigating difficulties in an intimate relationship, reach out today and take your first step towards living your full potential.
So many of us are never taught to express or work with our emotions, especially men and boys. I want to help everyone develop the skills of self-acceptance and emotional awareness. I work with couples, adults, adolescents, and children on anxiety, depression, stress management and relationship issues. I have completed Level 2 training in the Gottman Method, a highly renowned and research-based approach to working with couples. I am also trained and certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and integrate other respected approaches such as Systemic Family Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, and Self-Compassion.

Starting a therapeutic relationship can be intimidating, confusing, and overwhelming whether it is your first time receiving mental health care or you have years of experience.
As an anti-racist, intersectional feminist, I believe in the constant and ever evolving pursuit of social, racial, gender, sexual, economic, and environmental justice. My goal in working with my clients is to address their concerns as a co-collaborator and ally. I work from a Relational/Cultural theoretical orientation, meaning that I believe the therapeutic relationship is a key to healing within treatment. I take an eclectic approach to counseling utilizing interventions from various theories in order to best serve the needs of the individual, couple, and family.

You would be a better partner, friend, and parent: someone who is capable of saying "no" clearly, or "yes" wholeheartedly.
You are at your threshold and something has to give. Maybe you have been struggling for years, or maybe you have new stress that feels unmanageable. You've tried changing your diet, journaling, talking it out, and nothing seems to change. It may seem as though things will never be different in your life or your relationship. But, after years of experience working with others just like you, here is the truth: lasting change is possible. My clients come to me because they want a shift and are seeking support as they turn onto a new path. Together, we will explore your thoughts and feelings, using a relational and intentional approach.
