Hi there, thanks for visiting. I hope my intro helps you feel seen, hopeful and gives some insight into how we might walk together. Has traditional therapy felt more like learning to manage instead of experiencing transformation? Do you have experiences where life feels really aligned and clicking and desire to live from that place more often and more fully.
I offer trauma informed therapy to help you identify and gently step out of stuck cycles, allow and process emotions, and move towards what feels authentic and true for your unique self.

Supporting Adults with Trauma, Attachment Wounds, or Neurodivergence ... You’re a person who is reflective and actively engaged in self-improvement, perhaps even having done therapy before. From the outside, you seem ‘fine’. Nevertheless, you find it hard to quiet your mind, feel settled in relationships, and to stop overanalyzing your decision. Now, you’re ready to understand yourself more fully and create a life that goes beyond having the 'right answers’.

I believe in a Strength-Based approach to therapy. My belief is to start with what is working (even if it is just a little bit) and build from there. I encourage the client to have an active voice in the treatment process and to be involved in their clinical goal setting. I find that CBT and somatic techniques are helpful with many clients and utilize a variety of skills and activities to help clients learn and use these techniques in their daily life.

Trying to figure out which therapist is right for you? Knowing you want counseling, but not knowing where to start. It can be an intimidating time, worrying if your problem is too big or if there’s even hope. During our first session, my goal is to get to know you and create a plan together. I have a passion for working with couples and helping them find healing within their most cherished relationship. In our work together, I help couples find the patterns in their relationship they want to change and create a new way forward. A fulfilling relationship includes being able to be seen and heard by your partner.

I am passionate about supporting individuals and families through the emotional transitions of fertility challenges, pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood. This stage of life can be incredibly meaningful, but it can also feel overwhelming, isolating, and very different from what many people expected.
I also support individuals navigating termination for medical reasons (TMFR) and abortion, offering a space that is compassionate, nonjudgmental, and grounded in respect for each person’s unique experience.
My goal is to create a space where you feel understood and supported as you move through whatever this season holds.

One of the most important things for me is a clinician is that we are addressing the needs and goals of the client, that means that nobody else’s agenda is going to be prioritized. That also means that identifying those needs and goals will be the foundation of the work and what we go back to if we get lost and what we might change if movement is stunted. While there is not any prep work I would ask prior to a session, I would encourage any prospective clients to consider what they would like to accomplish in therapy. I offer intensive EMDR sessions (3-8 hours) and am currently able to schedule clients for intensive sessions.

I believe that the counseling session should be a place where people can take a break from the daily grind and invest in themselves in meaningful ways. In my practice, I encourage individuals to share the richness of their life stories, to replace oppressive thought patterns, and to reclaim their unique contribution to the world. My approach to counseling is integrated. I believe that unique individuals require unique therapy. It is my job to shape the therapeutic experience to best fit the needs of the individual.

Come in and talk as much or as little as you want to. When you feel the right amount of safety and trust, we will figure out together how to proceed, how to reach the goals you have, how to help you be the person you want to be. You will find support, privacy, and respect. All of us want to belong. All of us fear being ultimately alone. All of us want to feel safe, cared for, and connected to others. Let me help you work on those things and see your symptoms and functioning improve.

Beginning therapy is a journey, often times it is difficult to begin that journey. Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, anger, trauma, life adjustments, current social concerns, parenting small children or teens, family and relationship challenges or issues specific to the LGBTQ+ community, you will feel heard and welcome. I work with clients ages 3 and older. My style is to fit your needs and your lifestyle.
I have years of experience working with children, having an early childhood development degree, and working in the daycare and school system before becoming a therapist.

Have you gone through life feeling like you’re a bit of an odd duck? Or maybe you’re a bit too silly in a world full of serious geese? In that case, welcome to the flock.
I am a late diagnosed Autistic therapist. I'm quite open about being Autistic because my soft skills may be lacking, but my therapy skills are quite quacking.
I believe I work best with clients who struggle with social connection, lonliness, anxiety, feeling broken, and who have developed humor as a coping mechanism.
If you like ducks, we will get along. If not, we can find some way through our shared humanity to connect. (Not a legally binding guarantee)

Life can be messy, stressful, and overwhelming. What happens to us is not always our option, how we respond to a situation is. You may feel like you’re being pulled in so many directions and that you’re not sure how you’re going to move forward. We all have the capacity for resilience, recovering from misfortune, and adjusting to change can be supported by talking through the feelings and circumstance(s), identifying strengths, strengthening coping skills, and identifying avenues of self-care that can contribute to your personal growth and life balance.
