Taking the first step towards change can be an immense sign of growth and strength. I am a therapist dedicated to providing guidance and a collaborative environment for individuals seeking meaningful change. I come from a trauma-informed background and have had experience working with anxiety, depression, domestic violence, and systemic issues. I approach therapy as a working relationship where we create a safe and comfortable space for individuals to feel seen, heard, and valued.

Your teen doesn’t know what they want, and neither do you. At home, the conflicts seem constant—you’re always butting heads and they never seem happy, no matter what you do. You feel defeated. Teenagers are looking for a sense of belonging and it’s often hard for them to feel confident and explain their internal world to others when life is throwing so much at them. They need a space for someone to listen and validate their feelings, without fear of judgment. Understanding their behavior can be confusing and frustrating, but I’m here to tell you there is hope.

Anxious, stuck, lost, empty, and sad. You are not alone if any of these words resonate with you. So many of us learned to disconnect from the hurting or lonely parts of ourselves which can look like negative self-talk, overwhelm, unpredictable emotions, and relationship frustrations. I work with individuals who want to unlearn limiting beliefs, process past experiences, and reconnect with themselves, and folks exploring autism and identity. If you've ever been curious about how your past shapes your present, you're in the right place. Taking the first step toward healing is often the hardest, and I am so glad you are here.

Like nature, we ebb and flow through different seasons in life. While some seasons of life can feel overwhelming, these are often the times when we can experience the most growth. Therapy can be a wonderful tool to help individuals seek personal growth, overcome struggle, and thrive in life.

Your mood frequently fluctuates and you just can’t seem to keep it stable? You’ve read self help books, watched Tiktoks and talked to your friends yet you haven’t been able to shake the feelings you have.
