We all face challenges from time to time. Sometimes, we are able to adequately handle the dilemma by ourselves. Sometimes, though, the problem is much too difficult, and we can use some help. At those times, it is good to know that the kind of help we need is available. It often takes courage to reach for help, particularly to participate in therapy which can feel disruptive and frightening. To be honest, it often is but can be less distressing by compassionate, non-judgmental support. I know it is not easy, but why not call for support anyhow? A safe environment was created just for you. It would be my privilege to help.

New May 2026 - Are you a smart, driven, career-focused, empathic woman who just feels stuck? Nobody sees your high-functioning anxiety, they would never suspect your inner struggle. But your brain is relentless, your inner critic picks apart your every word, you can never get caught up on your to-do list, and no matter how much praise you get - you don't believe it. You wonder if you are depressed, maybe have ADHD...everything feels like a chore, and life isn't FUN anymore. You've read the self-help books, tried meditation, mental health walks, journaling...You know at the core you need to "love yourself" but truly don't know how.

Emotionally Focused Therapy is a tried and tested modality.
You’re probably feeling so alone and hopeless right now. The relationship you once looked to for strength and joy is beginning to feel like a source of pain and disconnection.

When it comes to being vulnerable, I know it can be one of the scariest things to do, so my goal is to help foster an environment and trust to help with the process. I work with all individuals; children (ages 7+), teens and adults. Some disorders I help treat include; Anxiety, Depression, Self-Harm, Complex Trauma, ADHD, OCD, and more. My approach to therapy is to find the balance between processing information together and providing my clients with working strategies to help them to continue to meet their goals.

My approach is relational and integrates CBT, Emotion-Focused Therapy ( EFT), motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused therapy to strengthen communication, emotional regulation, and lasting behavioral change.
Are you feeling stuck in relationship conflict, struggling with addiction, or overwhelmed by anxiety, ADHD, perfectionism, or low self-esteem? Perhaps past abuse or trauma continues to shape how you see yourself and connect with others. You or your partner may feel disconnected, reactive, or unsure how to rebuild trust. Repeating patterns can feel exhausting and discouraging. You deserve a space to understand these cycles, strengthen coping tools, and create healthier, more secure relationships grounded in clarity and self-worth.

I draw from IFS, EFT, and other evidence-informed approaches to tailor therapy to each person.
My educational background is in psychology and brain disorders management, and so I am appreciative and aware of the diverse range of factors that contribute to stress and to the challenges that individuals face on a day to day basis. I understand the importance of evaluating how each of these factors play a part in clients' presenting problems.
