Trauma shapes how we navigate life, but processing it is a powerful step toward healing. Together, we’ll improve emotional regulation, uncover and understand feelings, and develop tailored coping tools that truly work for you. If you’re feeling stuck or unsure where to start, I’ll guide you with a direct, evidence-based approach infused with laughter. I help clients challenge negative thinking, build confidence, and reach meaningful goals. I know it can be scary and uncomfortable to “do the work” and reflect inward, but you don’t have to face it alone—healing is possible, and hope is within reach.

My authentic, relatable approach fosters trust and growth for diverse clients, including tradespeople and First Responders. Specializing in trauma, I provide practical support and understand unique challenges. Grounded in real-world experience, I blend empathy & shared appreciation for dark humor, creating a safe, effective space for healing and connection.

Know that in our sessions, I want you to feel heard, validated and accepted. Feeling safety and trust will also improve your therapy experience, and I love to use humor in sessions with teens aged 16+, adults, families, and couples. I look forward to hearing your story!

I believe taking a trauma-informed approach to supporting my clients is essential. Together we will create a treatment plan that you feel good about, in order to address your own unique needs, at your pace. I encourage clients to share with me what works for them, and what doesn't, as there is no one size fits all approach.
