Welcome! I have been practicing for over twenty years and feel privileged to work with my clients on improving wellbeing and reducing symptoms (anxiety, negative self-talk, depression, relational issues, impact of trauma). I utilize a collaborative, strengths-based, relational, neuropsychological approach. For example, the majority of us experience anxiety but we can train our brains to work for us (rather than against us). Once you become aware of how your experiences have influenced you, you can make significant, positive changes. I have training in individual, couple, and family therapy as well as trauma-focused therapy.

Maybe you feel stuck—held back by past trauma or painful memories that won’t seem to let go. Life doesn’t have to feel this heavy. Maybe you're always on edge, struggling with flashbacks, nightmares, or a sense of dread. You avoid places, sounds, or people that bring back too much. Shame or self-blame might keep you stuck, or you feel disconnected—like you're watching life happen from the outside. You want peace, rest, and to feel safe in your own body again. You want to trust yourself, feel joy in your relationships, and move forward without fear. Healing can feel out of reach, but it is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.
