Healing and finding inner peace is a life long journey, premised on the notion that "Nothing changes if nothing changes". I enjoy working with individuals who are ready to challenge issues such as anxiety, trauma, conflict with family, and old scripts and old tapes that are no longer serving them in everyday life. I enjoy individuals who are active participants in their treatment process and who value growth, resilience, and the journey into change and recovery. Come as you are and we'll work toward where you want to be.

Life can leave us feeling fragile, like jars of clay, chipped or cracked from carrying too much. Anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or struggles with self-worth can make those cracks feel overwhelming, as if they define who you are. You may feel pressured to hold everything together while secretly feeling exhausted inside. I also work with ADHD, ASD, developmental challenges, tough personality patterns, and personality disorders. Whether you’re seeking relief, better coping skills, or a stronger sense of identity, therapy can be the space where you set down the weight and begin to heal.

Does each day seem to be a challenge and you feel you are just surviving? Maybe you are carrying the weight of the past or others expectations. I can offer a safe space to process and internally resolve the heaviness of everyday life with unconditional positive regard as well as tools to manage daily stressors using a bottom up approach that will include coping skills and trauma processing to help resolve the internal processes that cause difficulty in every day life.

I'd describe myself as being a genuine, compassionate and warm therapist who can still be direct and challenge you when necessary. I like to take a creative approach to your treatment goals, incorporating bits and pieces of things I think may be helpful, BUT I like to let my clients guide sessions as much as possible, so I frequently check in to see where you need to go on any given day, while also steering us toward productive areas.

Life is complicated and fast moving. Life on life’s terms sometimes feels impossible to try and keep up. No one is immune to changes. It’s hard to accept and roll with the punches when your brain is telling you one thing, but your system/intuition is pulling you in the other direction. That feels scary and unfamiliar, maybe even causing you to miss out on life and all the possibilities hidden behind closed doors. Let me help you tear down those walls built by fear and kick open those doors to new possibilities. I embrace many therapy styles that can be compatible with what you need.

Clients I work with may also experience ADHD and anxiety, and while I don’t diagnose or treat mental health disorders, my evidence-based, neurodiversity-affirming approach often supports these areas.

I became a therapist to help families stay together even through trauma and hurts, and I continued to do this work because of how it feels to watch someone have that "ah-ha" moment and flourish. I am so passionate about supporting families that I also facilitate webinars and teach courses on how other therapists can support families with a trauma-informed approach.
