My practice is about creating and enhancing a meaningful life. Through a belief that our disturbances--about ourselves, others or life in general - lead us to the doorway of wholeness, we work together to unfold and recognize that essence.

Feeling overwhelmed by daily tasks? Tackling a relationship challenge? Curious about who you are and why you do the things you do? Counseling is a place to consider how life could look different for the better. I’m a relational therapist who invites clients to explore, practice, and refine their relational style to improve their well-being. My insight-oriented approach helps clients identify patterns across life domains impacting their present day-to-day. From there, client’s are empowered to choose: work toward behavior change, deepen their understanding of pattern development, or both.

If you have people pleasing or perfectionist tendencies, struggle to be assertive, have issues with co-dependency, repeat unhealthy relationship patterns, have difficulty setting and keeping healthy boundaries, or have constant self-criticism and low self-esteem, I'd love to work with you. I use EMDR, IFS, DBT, and CBT and specialize in working with adults who either have or currently are experiencing relationship trauma, including childhood trauma, separation or divorce, difficult breakups, toxic relationships, workplace trauma, and parent-child issues.

I specialize in helping people respond more effectively to painful feelings, bothersome worry, and upsetting memories. The frantic feeling of anxiety, emotional roller coaster of relationship stress, or sadness of depression don't have to be part of your life forever. Sometimes even our best efforts to fix things miss the mark and leave us stuck in a rut. While harsh thoughts and tough feelings may seem like they have a grip on your life, therapy can often help reduce your struggle, refocus on what's most meaningful to you, and develop a healthier relationship with yourself and others.

Are your relationships not what you want? Are you and your partner(s) struggling with connection and conflict? Maybe there has been some type of betrayal or uncertainty if you want to continue the relationship? I can help! It can be difficult to place faith in a stranger, & beginning therapy can be awkward or even scary. However, couples & individuals who I have worked with have experienced a greater sense of purpose, an improved sense of self, and better relationships. I have helped my clients cultivate healthy relationships, more satisfying sex, & break out of dysfunctional patterns. I am kink aware, LGBTQIA+ and ENM affirming!

I value individual autonomy and strive to create a space where you feel heard and empowered. I commit to showing up with curiosity and compassion with the intent to help equip you with the everyday bravery it takes to be human.

As we move through life, we learn to censor, silence and ignore our own voice - through trauma (large and small), unmet needs for connection & acceptance, and endless external expectations. This experience can separate us from our unique purpose, potential and wellbeing. The result: perpetual cycles of suffering, distress, relationship difficulties, anxiety and depression. I am passionate about helping individuals interrupt these pattern and build from their unique strengths and innate resilience - to heal and grow from difficulty and build lives filled with joy and passion and connection to your own self authority.

Pain is part of the human experience. Rather than efforts of eliminating distress, I invite individuals to amplify their awareness of thoughts, sensations, and impulses that contribute to pain and suffering. This mindful practice, coupled with self-compassion, can mobilize healing, increase our ability to manage distress, and expand our resilience. Collaboratively, we will explore options for creating a meaningful life.

Seeking help in therapy takes strength and bravery, and I applaud clients for taking the first steps. It's easy to be hard on ourselves about how we feel or how we respond to our experiences. Sometimes we feel stuck, individually or in our relationships, and it can be hard to see a new path. I'm passionate about helping clients reach their potential to grow, change the patterns that no longer serve them, and move past the obstacles in their way. I work with clients to process and heal, create greater connections in their relationships, communicate more effectively, create healthy boundaries, and move through life more confidently.

Waitlist for new clients
I work with individuals who have experienced trauma, are struggling with anxiety and depression, or are just feeling overwhelmed with the emotions and stress of the human experience. Using effective modalities, such as EMDR and IFS, together we uncover the root cause of distress and work to resolve issues. My clients learn the neuroscience of how the mind, heart and body are interdependent parts of our complex physiology, and use that knowledge to develop practical, tangible tools that create lasting changes. I aim to empower clients to take charge of their wellness so that therapy is not an endless endeavor.

I have worked predominately with clients experiencing symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety, bipolar, addictive disorders, and personality disorders. I have a background in wilderness therapy and experiential treatment and love to introduce creative, alternative modes of expression to my clients, including yoga movement, narrative, and outdoor based therapies (walk and talk). By the end of our first session, most of my clients feel relieved and hopeful for their next steps.
