You might feel like different parts of you are at odds—one part pushing you forward, another holding you back or feeling uncertain. Sometimes life feels heavy, and it’s hard to know what to do next. You may feel stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand or weighed down by emotions that are hard to name. In therapy, we’ll move at your pace, side by side. My style is warm, curious, and collaborative— surrounded by plants, fidget toys, tea, and lots of books! Together, we’ll make sense of what’s happening inside and support you in finding clarity, relief, and a new way forward.

Are you struggling, and don't know why? Are relationships difficult, or do you feel like you haven't found your people? Has life suddenly just switched to "hard mode"? I often find myself working with people who know there's something not quite right but aren't sure where to start. Supporting identity work is one of my specialties, as is ADHD. I especially enjoy working with people who are trying balance work and managing chronic illnesses, fellow social services employees, and LGBTQ+ clients. I love working with neurodivergence!

Therapy isn't just about talking. It's providing a safe place. Anxiety, depression, unhealthy relationship, divorce, trauma, grief and loss, throw off our balance.

Building a trusting relationship is the first step toward that path and achieving your goals. I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and confidential environment to explore your story. This is therapy on your terms, to live authentically, and to achieve a healthy balance.

While I really appreciate working with a wide range of individuals, I especially love getting to work with trauma survivors in the late teens or twenties. Doing trauma processing work has always been part of my practice and something I am extremely passionate about. I also love working with people in the LGBTQIA+ community.

You look back and realize your life has not turned out how you had hoped. You feel like you have no idea who you are anymore and are unsure when that even happened. You feel like your trauma has stolen your life from you. You are burdened with trauma and are tired of everyone telling you how strong you are. You want real change. Depression, anxiety, stress, family are all impacting you and you wish it would change.

We all want to change in some way, and I believe that real, visible change comes from an internal motivation to be better versions of ourselves. By looking at the uncomfortable or unexamined parts within ourselves, that positive change becomes possible.

Sometimes in life you don't feel heard or understood. At those times, nothing feels safe and you feel alone. When you are going through a difficult time in your life, whether acute or long-term, it can feel overwhelming and isolating. I believe my role in therapy is that of a helper, to be with you in your journey, whether that be finding your own voice, healing past wounds, or working through trauma. Through building a relationship based on compassion, empathy, and respect, we discover the tools needed for growth and change, the resilience and strength that you always possessed.
