My conviction to help others was born out of my own experiences in life’s most difficult seasons. I learned that growth, depth, and hope can come when others walk alongside of you. My desire is to create this experience for women who are needing help because I know how valuable and necessary it is to have someone supporting you along the way. Through a collaborative relationship, I aim to be a tool and resource to help shine light where you are experiencing darkness by tailoring to your specific needs and goals.

I believe in the importance of accepting and loving yourself and reframing negative self-talk and core-beliefs. I prioritize diving deeper into the root causes of these negative core-beliefs and working to heal their source, instead of taking a band-aid approach to remedying symptoms. I feel particularly called to work with men seeking help from the pressures of societal and/or familial and cultural norms and often work with issues including trauma recovery, military-related issues, intimacy disorders & sex and love addiction, substance abuse disorders, anxiety and depression, and self-medicating tendencies.

My therapeutic approach emphasizes a relational, trauma-informed connection, with room for creativity and laughter. I offer a space in which clients can feel safe and seen as they are, without judgment or shame, because therapy isn’t “one size fits all”. I want to find the path that fits YOU best so you feel empowered to move towards the change you want to see.

Our collective struggle is that we have inherited a world of imbalance and as such, imbalance lives within each of us. It is my belief that healing is done in community, and that true change can only occur in the space between individuals. Together, we will work to find equilibrium and healing amongst the madness. It is my goal to help clients develop and hone the best version of themselves according to their own vision. Through the integration of movement and the expressive arts, I seek to assist clients in rewriting their narratives in a way that embodies dignity and strength.

I want to hear your story. Our stories make us who we are. These stories are forever changing as we move through the world. None of our stories are perfect. Truth is, some of our stories leave us feeling weary, as a therapist, I want to encounter you where you need the most support in your story. Everyone has a story that includes a past, present and a future. And every pain, and every instance of trauma, has history within us and that history cannot be changed. But we can decide to move forward from those hurts and not relive that chapter in our book. We can’t erase it, but we can fold the page down and decide to heal and move on.

I help women and girls unlock their true potential in therapy by providing a space that is filled with empathy, authenticity, and inspiration. My approach to therapy is hands-on and client-centered, as each woman's story is unique. I believe that one of the first and most powerful steps in therapy is simply developing an innate sense of self awareness around your thoughts, emotions, and story while learning to make meaning from past experiences. Providing a relatable and modern approach to therapy is one of my main goals as I help you learn to break free from negative patterns that keep getting you stuck.

You are here because you've realized that life as it is isn't working for you. I help with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, cultural challenges and more.

I can shed light on strengths that may be hard for you to see and help you get moving towards change.

I am a person-centered counselor who recognizes the importance of uncovering the ways in which a person’s past can influence their current thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

You put your best foot forward but struggle to acknowledge the good in your life. You put on a brave face and constantly show up for others but neglect your own needs.

Do you want to have better control of your emotions? Maybe you’re struggling to have meaningful, lasting relationships.
