In order for all of us to grow and heal, it is imperative to spend time investigating the deeper elements of our personalities. With that said, an ideal client would be someone interested in putting effort into exploring their innermost thoughts and feelings. I work to offer a multi-faceted approach to treatment that will help my clients work through issues related to the many aspects of self-identity, interpersonal relations, trauma, stress, anxiety, and depression. I consider it a sign of strength to begin searching for a therapist, and a sign of courage to take the leap into deep explorations of Self.

Hello therapy seeker, I'm glad you're here. My approach to therapy has a focus on authenticity, and the journey of processing life experiences to uncover the best parts of you that have been there all along. I utilize Parts Work to create a deeper understanding of the parts of us we wish we could change, or the trauma of our history that we wish to relate to differently.
Let’s partner together on a journey of self-understanding and discovery. With a warm and empathetic approach, let's create a custom environment in which you feel safe, nurtured, and free to express yourself.

Life moves quickly and it’s easy to lose touch with yourself or with the people you love. Maybe you've noticed a sense that something is missing or a struggle to feel truly seen and connected. Even without the words for it, you might find yourself wanting more closeness, more ease, more meaning. There is wisdom in what you're feeling.
Therapy offers you a chance to slow down and listen. Together, we’ll explore your experience through conversation, mindful awareness, and somatic practices. This work isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about reconnecting with your inner wisdom and rediscovering your capacity for connection and wholenness.

Welcome! I have over 25 years of experience, focusing on anxiety, trauma, chronic stress, self-regulation and recovery. We will explore what’s underneath your symptoms so together we can create real change. You'll learn frameworks to understand how life experiences are hardwired into our brains, impacting all aspects of life. You’ll also learn real skills and tools you can use daily, helping transform anxiety and stress into resilience, calm, and increased joy. To do that, I apply mindfulness, somatic/body-based skills, a relational focus, and an experiential lens, along with ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (aka KAP) when requested

What does it REALLY mean to be holistic and integrative? It means - you are a universe of different thoughts, quirks, capabilities, physical attributes, emotions, neurological functions, shortcomings, and strengths. It means problems aren't created - or solved - in a vacuum. In order to truly heal, we have to address the relationships between mind, body, spirit, and emotions. We have to consider the Universe. I work with members of all faiths (Christian or not) to restore the connection between mental health, physical health and spiritual healing.

My ideal client wants to change and evolve, and is willing to work at it through sessions and homework! I'm non-judgmental and a creative collaborator with my clients. I've done my job if clients feel heard, renewed, and empowered. I have a ton of experience and credentials: I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Brainspotting, and Brain-based Hypnotherapy. I work in trauma recovery, relationship issues, addiction, mood disorders, Jungian counseling, and spiritual counseling. I'm extremely adventurous, youthful, and have experienced life in many places and realms.

I offer counseling for a variety of mental and emotional health issues, as well as general life, growth, and relationship topics. I believe counseling is a mutual relationship between counselor and client, in which we work together to reach your goals and desired outcomes - whether those are specific and measurable, or simply an increased level of comfort, authenticity, and satisfaction. I provide a safe environment where you can be open and honest and feel comfortable being yourself. I want you to experience true respect and positive regard when we are together. I work with adults, couples, children, and adolescents.

Anxiety, Addiction, or Depression might have you feeling like you've lost touch with the life you really want. You might feel alone in all this, but I promise you're not. I help people just like you learn concrete tools and strategies to achieve the life you want. It's ok if you aren't sure what you want- we can figure it out together and build a roadmap for how to get there. The most important thing that a client needs is a therapist who is nonjudgmental, compassionate, relatable, and down to earth - so I work hard to embody these qualities.

Although I enjoy working with anyone committed to self-understanding and healing, I especially enjoy working with autistic and neurodivergent individuals and take a neurodiversity-affirming approach to care.
My style is warm, genuine, and human. I use gentle confrontation, humor, and occasionally some well-placed curse words when appropriate. Much of our work may include understanding patterns of thought and behavior, building emotional regulation skills, and cultivating self-compassion.

Are you feeling overwhelmed? Do you have trouble staying focused, concentrating, functioning normally? Most people that seek out my counsel do because they're in crisis or experiencing anxiety and/or depression, and within a few sessions, they are feeling more in control, more peaceful, and more aware of their capabilities to manage their lives and relationships better.

If you are having the same arguments over and over again, you are not alone. I will be with you every step of the way. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples to interrupt repetitive Cycles where one person reaches out in frustration, causing their partner to withdraw and hide out. Couple Therapy doesn't have to be torture, and there doesn't have to be a "bad guy". I have helped couples with a range of issues from Domestic Abuse to infidelity to communication issues. I even use humor sometimes, but we don't waste a moment! I welcome couples who have been in couple therapy before and have almost given up.

Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or disconnected from themselves. Many of the adults I work with have been considering therapy for some time before reaching out. They may be used to handling things on their own, but eventually realize they would benefit from a space to slow down, reflect, and make sense of the patterns shaping their lives. Therapy offers a place to pause, breathe, and feel genuinely understood. Together we work to create steadiness—helping you reconnect with your strengths, build emotional resilience, and move through life with greater clarity, balance, and self-compassion.

I earned my MSW at Simmons University and my B.S. in Psychology at the University of North Carolina Asheville. I approach my clinical work from a human lens, seeking to meet each client wherever they may be in their life.

Are you haunted by the past? Do upsetting memories interfere with your present-day experiences? Maybe you instinctively know that you over-react to situations that trigger intense feelings from your past. You just want to forget about it and move on. However, your emotional over-reactivity has been impacting your relationships, your job, and your overall sense of well-being. Perhaps you have avoided therapy because you don't think talking about it will help. If this is your story, then I can help. The models of therapy I use do not require you to talk about your upsetting memory. You get to decide what to share if anything at all.
