Accepting new clients August 2026! Starting therapy can feel awkward or scary, especially if you’ve never done it before or you’re worried about being judged. I get that. My style is warm, conversational, and real. No jargon or pressure, just a space where you can talk honestly about what’s going on and not feel like you have to filter yourself. Many of my clients are people who tend to hold things in, help everyone else first, or feel like they should have it all together. If therapy has always seemed intimidating, my goal is to make it feel like a genuine conversation, not a cross-examination.

Are you anxious and stressed? Do you fear disapproval and avoid confrontation? I get it! I facilitate change by first identifying the fixed thoughts and assumptions that interfere with fulfillment. Does your relationship/marriage need tools to navigate disagreements? Childhood experiences powerfully impact our self-statements, so you won't leave our sessions without exploring your youth - - who loved you, who didn't, and how you now cope and react. Couples therapy sessions will also provide this same in-depth approach with an emphasis on communication strategies. I am also trauma-informed and treat C-PTSD clients.

After years of work in both inpatient hospital and outpatient clinic settings, I realized there are so many people who are finding waitlists on the day that they are reaching out to connect to a therapist so I decided to take on a small practice for folks that are wanting telehealth based supports, who feel ready to explore options of healing and growth. I was trained in eclectic approach interventions and have focused on modalities of Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused and look forward to supporting people with decreasing symptoms while increasing skills.
