I have been in the helping profession for over 25 years, working with a wide variety of clients across the life span. I approach clients with an open mind, encouraging them to set their goals and collaborate with me to resolve their problems and issues. I am solution-focused, asking, "what do you need to be the healthiest person you can be? How can I help?" Clients have told me they most appreciate that I listen, do not judge, and provide an empathetic ear. I find clients often have the answer to their issues, but they need help recognizing that answer. Yes, change is hard, but it can be accomplished with faith and work.

Currently accepting new clients! Life is really messy, but it is also beautiful. Really big wounds can happen, and make the chaos feel impossibly complicated. Anxiousness, fear, trauma, unhelpful patterns, and burn out are just a few of the everyday barriers we fight-all while trying to do every single other thing on our plates (like eating, sleeping, and watering our house plant). When we pair our messiness with the unique messiness of our spouse or other family members, it only adds to the fog.

At the end of the day, I’m just a human who has a passion for walking alongside others in their struggles. When you enter my therapy space, my goal is that you feel safe to come exactly as you are. I provide a warm, empathetic, and interactive presence. Therapy is a sacred time dedicated to healing from the adversity life has thrown your way, and I consider it an honor when clients invite me in their pursuit of healing. I believe “healing” looks different for each of us, and there isn’t a “one size fits all” approach to treatment. I strive to collaborate with my clients to tailor the treatment plan to reflect their specific needs.

Perhaps you feel broken inside as if everyone around you has a map & compass guiding them through life while you bumble your way around feeling like nothing more than an empty shell of yourself. You’ve tried therapy before & have seen some improvements, but you’re still feeling hopelessly lost. You feel stuck in a seemingly endless cycle of progress followed by a whiplash of regression. All of this leaves you exhausted & uncertain of how you can keep going. Life doesn’t have to be this endless drudge of misery, depression, anxiety, and other trauma symptoms. Therapy can help.

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
