I'm glad you've found yourself here. Acknowledging that you need support right now is the first step. Life and relationships can be complex and I find that it is often helpful have a neutral person to offer a listening ear, guidance, and to facilitate a process of gaining more insight about who you are and what you need. My role would be to help you work towards your goals, which may include building self-compassion, identifying and regulating uncomfortable emotions, processing old trauma, changing negative thoughts and patterns, overcoming challenges, strengthening relationships, implementing new coping skills.

Do you struggle with self esteem issues? Feel like you can’t ever relax? Struggle to get out of bed? These issues can take a toll on your mental health without you realizing, which is why taking the first step to talk to someone about can be so powerful. I offer a safe space for those who want to explore the best way to express feelings that may seem impossible to get off your chest. I’m open to seeing anyone who falls under the teenager, young adult, and adult age range. I value the therapeutic relationship as the main way to work through the biggest struggles of maintaining your mental health.

I believe that healing starts with a strong therapeutic relationship and focus on establishing an accepting, warm environment filled with trust and free of judgement. This foundational relationship and your courage and willingness allow for deep exploration into your inner world. As a client, you will take an active role in the therapeutic process and together, we'll awaken the autopilot that many of us default to and move towards living life more intentionally and authentically. Through compassionate and curious exploration, we will bring awareness to patterns that may be interfering with your life.

My practice is rooted in a core belief in the power and purpose of all human emotions. Our emotions are some of our most important tools for navigating the world. As children, we learn to adapt to our environments by finding resourceful ways of managing emotions that don’t feel safe. But sometimes, as adults, the same strategies that helped us in the past can actually contribute to our feeling stuck, empty, out of control, hopeless, or alone. I practice a kind of therapy called Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), which helps clients heal from emotional pain and recover their innate sense of agency and vitality.

We will use our therapeutic relationship to gain insight into difficult relational patterns in your life and develop new ways of being in relationship. We will make meaning through work and play and we will discover what is possible.

Are you tired of the cascading “I should be’s” or “I’m not enough’s?” Maybe you're not connecting in your relationships the way you want to be. A part of you wants to change but you don't know how or where to start. Luckily, we were never designed to go through it alone. I frequently work with adults and college students ages 18+ who are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, perfectionism, and distress related to family and life transitions. I work with adults of all genders, sexualities, and socioeconomic, racial, and cultural backgrounds via virtual, office, and walk and talk sessions.

It is easy to become overwhelmed by the sadness, anger, or anxiety we experience. During these times we often feel uncertain and insecure. My goal is to help you find balance and to restore a sense of control and inner strength. I believe it is important to listen and to be supportive as well as to provide guidance as you explore where you have been, where you are and where you hope to go. I believe it is important for you to set realistic and reasonable expectations of yourself as well as others. And to develop the communication skills that will allow you to share your thoughts and feelings in healthy and appropriate ways.

You feel stuck. At this point in your life, you thought you’d have relationships down - your marriage or partnership would feel meaningful, hard but fulfilling. Instead your interactions with your partner, and perhaps your family, friends, or coworkers. leave you feeling misunderstood, frustrated and alone. How the hell are other people able to “click”? This wasn’t how you envisioned how love would feel in your life.

I work with adults who want to address anxiety disorders, past trauma, and interpersonal/attachment concerns. My therapeutic approach is catered for each client. For those with anxiety, I use evidence-based approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure and response prevention (ERP) to help my clients learn about the intersections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Much of therapy includes learning and trying out new ways of thinking, utilizing coping skills that emphasize regulating your nervous system, and safely exposing yourself to anxiety-provoking things in order to overcome your fears.

My ideal client is a young individual, perhaps navigating the intricacies of adolescence or the early challenges of youth. They find themselves grappling with emotional imbalances, interpersonal challenges, or stressors related to school or home environments. Their issues might encompass struggles with emotional regulation, difficulties in managing peer or familial relationships, or the daunting task of establishing a sense of identity in a world that can often seem overwhelming.

I understand the struggles we all face. In my experience of over 30 years working in the mental health and human service fields with children, adults, couples, families and groups, I’ve developed great insight and understanding into what helps us heal. It is the relationship between the client and therapist that is of utmost importance. Most of us, grew up with unmet needs as children and/or have experienced loss and trauma and now struggle with expressing our emotions, trusting others, lack of confidence or motivation, poor self-esteem, relationship difficulty, issues w/ anger, self-doubt, poor decision making, saddness and worry.

Through compassion, I meet clients where they are in their lives. I spend time getting to know my clients and their own hopes for themselves. Therapy works best when clients feel connected to the therapist and are hopeful about the goals we set together. I help clients feel positive about their lives and future, work with them to accept our humanness, and offer ways to communicate their stories, even if not with words. I hold space for clients who are adults and teens trying to love the skin they are in, parents trying to understand their kids, those with new or long-term grief, and young adults figuring out the future.

Hello! I provide both short term and long term therapy to individuals who are working to manage anxiety, adjustment to life transitions and interpersonal relationships of all kinds. I provide a safe space for those who identify as neurodivergent, as well as LGBTQ+ individuals. I also work with a lot of college students! As a queer, trans-nonbinary clinician, I understand the importance of providing a safe space for visibility, self-exploration, and inclusion. Breaking away from dominant culture expectations and learning how to 'unmask safely' are two areas of importance that I focus on throughout the therapy experience.

I believe that in order to be healthy, we need to be able to work, to love, and to play. If you are overwhelmed with anxiety or feelings of being lost, unsure of what you want, feeling less than whole, finding yourself procrastinating when you don't know why, or having repeated difficulty in relationships, I am hopeful you have come to the right place. By looking closely at what may be holding you back, we will be able to understand it with fresh eyes. This can lead you to your goals of relief from suffering, a greater sense of choice, and more freedom to express the self you most want to be.

We may wisely withdraw, or hold, around moments of threat and overwhelm. But if holding becomes our automatic way of being, even as circumstances change, we may feel increasingly disconnected and less alive. By slowing down, giving ourselves time to notice changes in our experience, we can explore different responses. As we make space in our immediate (experience, relationship and environment) for what is happening now, we can experiment with holding less. And, as we engage our bodies without as much holding, our possibilities for moving, breathing, feeling alive and in relationship to what is beyond us - widen.

I offer a safe space for all forms of self-expression for individuals and couples across the sexuality spectrum. Often when we are placed in environments with intense levels of stress, whether this is from relationship issues, anxiety/depression, addiction or other life situations, we hold pain and trauma deep in our bodies. When we are unable to process and release this from our bodies, we become stuck in patterns that are unhealthy. I also specialize in couples therapy, utilizing Gottman Method Techniques as well as Emotionally Focused Therapy, to provide a safe space to explore sexual, relational and life challenges.

You question what you say, how your body looks, if you’re doing things “right,” and there are so many times where your mind feels like it’s on a hamster wheel that you can’t stop. You feel on edge all day and sometimes even feel like you may be having a heart attack. You don’t feel like you fit in anywhere. You’ve been made fun of before for so many different parts of who you are. You’ve been called weird or have been misunderstood at work, in your family, and even in some of your dating relationships. You’ve struggled to find someone who feels like a good fit romantically, and you’re worried there’s something wrong with you. You want to feel more connected to yourself again…
