I specialize in helping people process their past—trauma, foundational experiences, and internalized beliefs—so they can grow beyond what has happened to them. We all inherit beliefs from our family, history, and cultures that shape who we think we can be. I work with people who feel stuck in that tangled web, despite doing everything “right”. Whether anxiety, burnout, depression, or loneliness weighs them down, I support clients in moving beyond the roles they’ve been playing. Together, we face their past, reclaim their power, and build the courage to live a life that feels authentic and aligned with who they truly are.

Think of therapy like we're on a ship together. You're driving the ship and I'm the person with the map. My job is to stand next to you and orient us to what's happening as we find the path towards your goals. We will explore the currents, the weather, and any barriers that are keeping you from the life you want for yourself. Beyond where you'd like to be headed, in this therapeutic space- I invite you to come exactly as you are. There is no one to be and nothing to do outside of attending to the person that you are in this moment. I truly believe such presence is the prerequisite to all personal transformation.

Anxiety, panic, worry and stress can hold people back from performing in life. It can hold people back in school, from getting the job they want, getting promoted, and flourishing in relationships. Trying to escape anxiety can lead people to doing things they wouldn't normally do. When people are frozen with fear they are not living life fully as their authentic selves. Working with a therapist can break you free from anxiety. I've helped so many people work through these feelings to go on to be more successful in their lives.

I do not see the term “mental health” as meaning “absence of stress, problems or psychological challenges,” but the learned ability to keep on functioning and living your best life possible, in spite of these things. Thank you for considering letting me witness and, hopefully, take part in your story!

I firmly believe in our ability to make change in our lives. For most of us, change occurs through a series of small imperfect steps and frustratingly, not always even moving in a forward direction. Change involves evaluating longstanding patterns and considering whether those patterns fit with the life you want for yourself today. Embarking upon this path requires being gentle with yourself at the start and throughout the process. Sometimes even this gentleness must be learned and practiced. Please note that I have a few openings in my practice at this time but they are exclusively between the hours of 10 am and 3 pm Mon-Thursday.

We reach out for help when something in our life gets our attention. It could be distressing feelings and thoughts, paralyzing indecision, stress, relationship challenges, trauma, illness, just to name a few. We can feel vulnerable, lost, alone. Oftentimes, the original issue which first got our attention takes us on an unexpected journey. We are given the opportunity to deepen into our relationship with ourselves and the divine in ways that heal and change us beyond anything we imagined. This reverberates into every aspect of our life bringing happiness, renewed vitality, a sense of belonging and feeling engaged in life, contentment and peace.

I work with individuals and couples, and I specialize in working with those who struggle with anxiety, stress, PTSD or depression. These issues are particularly important to me because they can be debilitating, and yet they are often treatable. I use evidence-based practices to help reduce and decrease symptoms. It is truly an honor to walk alongside a client as they deepen their self-awareness, ponder their values and align those values with their goals in life. There is great strength in the human spirit, and it can empower individuals to make meaningful changes through discipline and hard work.

With curiosity and warmth, I will listen and support you in identifying what you'd like to shift in your life to bring a sense relief and ease while more closely meeting your needs and living in balance with your values.

I'm a perinatal and co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders specialist. I work with individuals ages 16-35 experiencing anxiety, depression, substance use, emotion dysregulation, life transitions, stress, and challenges in relationships within families of origin. I'm particularly passionate about supporting individuals in pregnancy/postpartum and new parents. The transition to parenthood is so unique and everyone deserves support. My style is warm, genuine, and direct. I often use humor with my clients, when appropriate, because laughter can be a very powerful tool and often helps foster a sense of trust and alliance.

It can be difficult to reach out for help. I hope to make this easier by providing a warm, inviting experience without unnecessary pressure. I believe in allowing my clients to drive their own healing processes through new insight into their problem areas, and by helping them build skills for lasting results. I particularly enjoy working with clients who have never experienced the benefits of therapy. My clients range in age from 22 through 94.
