I bring a direct, yet compassionate approach to therapy. I am a firm believer in the power of utilizing humor and the importance of framing all goals in the reality of the client. I work best with individuals who focus on a journey of integrity versus a supposed destination of perfection. My ideal clients include individuals who are both new to the world of mental health as well as seasoned veterans who are looking to do some serious digging into their sense of self. These individuals are not looking for a cookie cutter version of happiness, but rather an honest exploration of truth and understanding of their own experience.

Do you often feel like you are not meeting your own standards? Do you feel stuck in uncertainty, unable to move in the best direction? Is it hard for you to feel satisfied? Do you desire more fulfilling relationships with others? Growing up, you may have encountered people who were critical of your performance / appearance, and who burdened you with unrealistic expectations. This can make it difficult for you to feel happy with your achievements and quiet your inner critic. You may be numbing some of the pain with unhealthy choices that are starting to feel just as inescapable. If this resonates, therapy could be a good next step.

In all my relationships, including and especially with my clients in therapy, I seek to operate from a place of curiosity and compassion. As vulnerable and painful as it can be to dismantle old patterns, it is even more rewarding to see clients establish new, more functional ways of being (relationally, emotionally, cognitively, physically, and spiritually). My goal is to provide a safe space to collaborate and walk alongside clients as they seek to heal, grow, and change into more of the person they want to be.

Life is a mix of celebrations and challenges, often leaving us feeling weighed down by emotions we’re unsure how to process. Therapy doesn’t have to be a scary process—it’s an opportunity to be heard, understood, and supported.

Healing can only happen by allowing your pain and your hopes to be witnessed. So many people suffer in silence, carry burdens of intergenerational trauma or being neurodivergent in a world not built for them, and have never REALLY been given the space to use their voice. If this describes you, you belong here. Part of my goal as your therapist is to help you find your voice again (or perhaps for the first time) and have the opportunity to be truly seen and heard. I will bring full presence, respect, and compassion to our work together to support you in moving toward the life you desire and deserve.

I am a caring and empathetic person who has a heart for helping people. As a therapist I seek to work collaboratively with clients in establishing treatment goals. My hope is that clients will learn new and healthier ways of living and gain a greater ability to treat both themselves and others with compassion. It takes courage to step into the therapy room, so I work to provide a disarming and open space for clients to share. My curiosity guides me as I get to know people for who they are and I enjoy helping clients learn to think, feel, and act in new, productive ways to become the people they want to be.

Whether the difficulty is past trauma or present circumstances, I enjoy working with individuals who long to create a healthier connection with themselves and others. Disconnectedness can result in anxiety, isolation, depression or addiction. I understand the panic and fear that surfaces when my clients have been hurt by themselves or by those they love the most. I create a safe space for them to process difficult experiences, while learning to live a more fulfilled life.
