I believe the key for successful therapy is finding someone you can fully trust and feel completely comfortable with. If you are seeking a warm, inclusive and compassionate therapist to help you on your journey, I’d love to meet with you! Most people who come to see me hope to find clarity on relationships, figure out how to set boundaries, give their life a better sense of direction, or find themselves. Whether you are looking for relief from anxiety and worry, or you are trying to regain joy and rhythm of life, I’d be honored to help you on that journey.

Are you interested in examining your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to make positive change? I am committed to providing a safe & affirming space to harness strengths, explore current patterns, & see where there could be space for growth. I have worked with individuals on the Autism Spectrum & those with depressive, anxious, & trauma-related symptoms. I acknowledge that treatment of these challenges is not "one size fits all", & pride myself on my experience working with folks in the LGBTQIA2S+ community, & those with different health conditions & ability statuses.

Feeling like your emotions are getting the best of you? Or that there's so much going on that you can't find time to process it all? I specialize in helping adults, teens and kids navigate life's stressors, from daily overwhelm to difficult relationships, or past experiences that left you feeling traumatized. Sometimes life really is too much to handle - No one should be doing it alone. I work with kids and adults who feel that their anxiety, depression and overwhelming thoughts are keeping them from feeling truly happy. And I love seeing the shift when things improve for my clients!
