I work with children ages 10 and under, helping them feel safe, understood, and better able to navigate big emotions and life challenges. I believe that when children are given the right support, they are incredibly capable of healing, growing, and building confidence in themselves and their world. I also work closely with parents and caregivers, providing insight and practical tools to strengthen connection, support emotional development, and create lasting change at home.

You may have noticed a shift in your child or teens behavior. At times it may feel as though you and them have nothing in common and they are struggling to find their way. Maybe you’ve been through loss, rejection, or a difficult childhood that still affects how you see yourself today. You might find yourself shutting down, people-pleasing, or doubting your worth and you’re ready for that to change.
I help clients untangle the emotional weight of anxiety, depression, stress and grief, so they can reconnect with their sense of self.

Albert Camus once wrote “There is scarcely any passion without struggle.” Life is hard and sometimes there is no one easy answer. It's my passion to walk with people through the difficult times and in asking the big questions.

I enjoy hearing people's stories about how they got to wherever they are before before focusing on their goals and dreams for their lives. I work primarily with couples, individuals experiencing anxiety, and people trying to find themselves.

You've spent much of your life learning how to achieve — to work hard, push through, and meet expectations. You're thoughtful, capable, and driven by a deep desire to do things well. But somewhere along the way, achievement may have become intertwined with your identity, leaving you unsure who you are when you're not performing or producing. Maybe you're a mom who has found herself caring for everyone else while quietly feeling anxious or stretched thin. You may be used to holding it all together, yet feel exhausted by the weight of it — burnt out, overwhelmed, and ready for something to change.

I believe change is hard, and therapy is an endeavor that takes courage, but it's also an opportunity for growth, healing, and moving forward. If you've never been, therapy may appear intimidating, but it's really just a process of identifying areas to work on, developing goals, and then working toward those goals. It's awesome getting to work with people who are ready to start the process of change and experience the emotional, spiritual, and relational growth that happens as a result. Some of the areas I work with clients on are anxiety, depression, trauma, couples therapy, borderline personality disorder, boundaries, and others.

As a first responder, veteran, or survivor, you carry experiences that can be difficult for others to truly understand. You may have witnessed or lived through things that changed you in ways that are hard to explain. Maybe you’re constantly on edge, struggling to sleep, or feeling disconnected from the people and life you once loved. You’ve tried to push it down, stay strong, and keep moving forward—but the past still finds its way in. You’re ready for something to change. You’re ready to feel like yourself again and find a therapist who genuinely understands. I want to help you get there.
