People can heal from trauma. But you don't have to do this alone. People pleasing, relationship stress, anger, chronic pain, addictions, shame, insecurity; just a few ways trauma tends to show itself in your life. When people decide to get curious about how the wounding moments in life have impacted their self-worth and worldview, then healing can occur. You deserve to heal. And you deserve support through this process. I help people let go of shame, rediscover who they are, and find reasons to smile again. I would be honored to help discover what healing looks like for you, should you choose to no longer travel that path alone.

My goal is to create a safe and affirming space to facilitate growth and self-exploration and to support and meet you where you are in life. Together, we can look into what brought you into counseling, take your values into consideration and help build coping and mindfulness skills in order to navigate life or manage stress. I tend to use ACT, CBT, DBT, and EMDR skills in my practice as well. Sometimes we need a safe and unbiased space to go to in order to talk about what we are going through and to encourage growth in new ways. It’s important to take care of our mental health just as we take care of our physical health.

You know there's something wrong but aren't certain how to fix it. Or you know you "should be" doing certain things but can't quite seem to manage to do them. You've tried a lot of different things, some of them helped a bit for a while and some of them didn't seem to help much at all, or made it even worse. I help individuals who want to feel satisfied with their lives but instead feel overwhelmed, out of control, and stuck in the same place no matter what they do.

I work with people of all races, social classes, gender identities, religions, and ethnicities. I believe that no problem or concern area is too far from the core of the human experience and good therapy is about learning how to navigate your own thoughts and emotions in a healthy way. I tend to work with people who overthink, have major anxiety, low mood, depression and who are generally lost on what "to do" next. I help people address their childhood trauma and come back to The Self by listening to their bodies as much as they do their minds.
