My passion is to work with individuals and couples to help them move past challenges and life-long obstacles to achieve incredible results that lead to a deep and lasting inner peace.
I am here to use my 21 years of experience to help you reflect on your life, disrupt your comfortable routines, and challenge you to make positive changes. In other words, I help you wake up. But it is so easy to fall asleep to your life and put off dealing with longstanding issues that don’t have simple solutions. You let things go and focus on what is working. Eventually those neglected areas cause problems that you can no longer ignore.

My hope is that our work together can reignite those things that bring you the most joy and life. Often this process involves working through the impact of loss, pain, or trauma in a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship. I work extensively with artists, musicians, womxn and queer folx, and much of my experience centers around religious trauma and spiritual wounding. My work is informed by humanistic and existential perspectives of psychotherapy, and I often incorporate the use of mindfulness techniques. I am also trained in a number of evidence-based clinical treatments including IFS, ACT, and EMDR.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by self-doubt, insecurity, or the pressure to meet impossible standards?
Do these emotions seem to take over your life, affecting your relationships, and leaving you with a sense of unease? Maybe you're constantly comparing yourself to others, fearing judgment or rejection, and caught in a cycle of overthinking that leaves you feeling stuck. Even though you try to downplay it with thoughts like “It’s not a big deal” or “I should be handling this better,” deep down, you know something needs to change.
