Come as you are and take what you need. Therapy is a space meant for you. I believe that our bodies, memories, thoughts, and relationships can provide us with vast knowledge to uncover deep patterns, truths, and vulnerabilities. In the same vein, I believe that everyone deserves a nonjudgmental space to explore their own unique pathway to wellness, whatever that may be. As a Mental Health Counselor, I operate within trauma-informed modalities of person-centered therapy, internal family systems, dialectical behavioral therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy.

Have you found yourself struggling to make important decisions? Are you at a crossroads, staring down life transitions and feeling overwhelmed? At times, this decision-making process can feel like a burden instead of a gift, especially when the choices have impactful consequences. We might doubt or question ourselves, “Am I making the RIGHT decision? Is this the BEST choice to make? Should I be making this decision NOW?” Change and transitions can bring up feelings of fear, worry, sadness or loneliness. All of this can feel more intense if you do not feel supported by your family, friends or community.

Mental health challenges are more than a diagnosis. From neurochemical imbalances such as ADHD to emotional disturbances like major depression, the symptoms and impact differ for each person. Larger issues such as life direction, personal ethics, and the family expectations we grew up with all result in different responses to overwhelming emotions and situations. Your mental health journey should be a collaborative experience that rises to meet your needs and supports you through your challenges. I am here to help you find your path and walk with you, even if you aren't yet sure where you are traveling.

Waitlist for new clients
We each have different values and experiences in our lives, that can shape the people we become and the quality of living we experience. In times of struggle, we may feel lost and lonely as we attempt to live more authentically and with greater joy. Together, we can explore and deepen your own understanding and relationship you have with yourself and others to better navigate through and experience a balanced and healthy living. My goal is to provide a safe and secure environment to support personal growth, deepen insight, increase perspective and give space for self-compassion and acceptance.

We all have the ability to change, learn and grow. We are not born with skills, throughout our life we gain many coping mechanisms, but some of those are born out of survival, fear or toxic family dynamics and might make it challenging to navigate in relationships or during life’s transitions. For many this leads to experiencing a variety of symptoms. Life can also throw us some big curveballs that feel impossible to adjust to. I believe with assistance anyone can process the past, heal, build coping skills and cultivate a mindset that is needed to create a life that is enjoyable. I utilize DBT and EMDR to aid you in your journey.

Today's world is often extremely hard to navigate. It makes sense if you are just trying to survive and live, especially when stressors--expected or unexpected--or trauma enter into the story, leaving chaos in their wake to sort through and heal from. For this reason, creating and sustaining a safe and trusting therapy environment is most important to me when working with you. I am able to do this through a client centered approach that reflects and embraces honoring where you are in your journey.

Therapy is a messy, beautiful adventure of healing, growth, and self-discovery. My greatest desire is to empower you to use life’s challenges to discover your inner strength, wisdom, and sense of purpose. I am passionate about working with people seeking transformative growth and meaning in life. I specialize in supporting adults healing through trauma (esp. childhood/complex trauma); grief; life transitions (e.g. midlife crisis, end of life); and topics related to spirituality such as psychedelic integration, spiritual emergency/awakening, and near-death experiences.

I consider the counseling relationship to be a partnership in which one seeks an understanding of the problems that are affecting one's life and learns of strategies that will help alleviate them. Problems are manifested in anxiety, depression, or other stress-related problems such as sleeplessness, tension and the inability to enjoy life, family or activities. ALL are attempts to cope with problems. Since this partnership is based on trust and mutual respect, it is important that the client meet a professional who can best address those problems, and has the experience to know when and how to implement changes.
