I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker who works with teens and adults struggling with anxiety and/or depression. I help those grappling with uncertainty, anxiety, fear, and confusion. If you feel like no one understands what you're going through, or if you need a new perspective, I will work to help you make sense of your experiences and get you to a place you want to be. I match well with individuals struggling with anxious or depressive symptoms, past family trauma, or life transitions. Telehealth or in person sessions available.

It’s not uncommon to go through seasons of life that are overwhelming, discouraging, or cause you to feel stuck. In these times, hope and relief may feel unreachable. As your therapist, my role is to walk alongside you and hold that hope until you’re ready to carry it yourself. My aim is to offer genuine support, validation, and guidance so you do not have to navigate these challenges alone. In therapy, you’ll be encouraged to show up as your authentic self while we work together to recognize your strengths, clarify your goals, and explore new ways to relate to yourself, others, and obstacles.

I primarily work with individuals ages 14+ who are LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, have personality disorders, and have mood disorders as they navigate identity exploration, life after trauma, and the moments in life where things just feel stuck. I also enjoy working with couples, particularly those in LGBTQ+ and ENM/polyamorous relationships, as they strengthen communication, navigate conflict, and deepen connections in the relationship. My prior experience in inpatient substance use and mental health treatment shaped how I see people: not as diagnoses or problems to fix, but as individuals doing their best with what they’ve been through.

When sexual behaviors feel out of control, or secrecy or infidelity has shaken your sense of trust, reaching out can feel difficult. I work with people experiencing sex addiction and compulsive sexual behaviors, and with partners affected by betrayal trauma. I also provide therapy for teens ages 14+, adults, and couples facing anxiety, depression, trauma, abandonment wounds, codependency, or relationship difficulties. Together, we can make sense of what is happening and identify steps that fit your needs and goal
I offer a warm, empathetic approach using mindfulness and trauma-sensitive techniques tailored to your unique story.

Do you need someone to talk to about your family, job, climate change, social justice or relationships? Are you struggling with loss, abuse or harassment currently or in the recent or distant past? Do you feel misunderstood or question your identity or direction in life? Do you feel like life has handed you some lemons? If this sounds like you, I offer confidential mental health therapy in a farm house set on a nature sanctuary from a decolonized perspective. I strive to provide a safe space for survivors, and people from diverse racial, gender, ethnic religious and spiritual backgrounds. Diversity is celebrated here.

Congratulations on taking the next step in your journey by seeking a therapist to assist you! I believe at the heart of us all is the need to be accepted as our authentic selves and to be validated and empathized with. As wounded children, we sometimes develop unhealthy coping skills to soothe uncomfortable feelings and unpleasant experiences. The tools that served us well as children turn into our autopilot as adults when we experience emotional dysregulation. My goal is to provide my clients with nonjudgmental, compassionate, empathetic support to aid in overcoming whatever stress, conflict, or trauma may be occurring in your life

The question isn't, "What's wrong with me". It's, "What happened to me?"
Maybe you find yourself overthinking every decision, putting everyone else's needs before your own, shutting down during conflict, or feeling like you're never enough. These patterns didn't develop by accident. They often began as ways to protect you.
Healing begins with curiosity. One of the questions I ask most often is, "Where did you learn that?" Together, we'll explore the experiences that shaped you, honor how those patterns once protected you and decide whether they're still helping you build the life and relationships you want today.

I’m a therapist who believes that real change happens when insight and action come together. I work with people who feel stuck—often aware of what’s going on internally, but unsure how to move forward in their daily lives.

Let’s be honest- starting therapy can feel weird. It can be scary, awkward, vulnerable…and stir up a lot of other feelings that make it hard to get started.
When you walk into my office, my hope is that it feels like a place where you can finally exhale. You might find me barefoot. And if a well-timed swear word slips into conversation, I promise I won’t be offended. You don’t have to show up polished or have the “right” words. Come exactly as you are.

Currently accepting new clients. I have been a practicing licensed therapist for over 30 years. My ideal client looks like they’re holding it all together but inside feels like everything is unraveling. You may struggle with anxiety, depression, or past trauma that shows up unexpectedly. You’re ready to stop surviving, explore patterns that hold you back, and do deeper work in a safe, compassionate space. You want relief, steadiness, and authentic connection and feel like you are not alone in doing the work — and the tools to build healthier relationships, emotional balance, and a stronger sense of self.

Sometimes you reach a point where the life you’ve been managing no longer feels like it fits. You may be struggling with anxiety or depression, questioning a relationship, grieving a loss, dealing with past experiences, or simply wondering how you got here. I especially enjoy working with women in their 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond as they navigate relationships, changing roles, identity, aging and major life transitions—including the emotional changes that can accompany perimenopause and menopause. I also work with individuals and couples from diverse backgrounds and life experiences.

My ideal client is a veteran, first responder, or high-performing professional who feels overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck after trauma or major life transitions. They may struggle with anxiety, irritability, depression, or identity loss. They want clarity, resilience, and purpose—without feeling judged or pathologized. Their goal is to regain control, strengthen relationships, and move forward with confidence and meaning.

I consider it a great privilege and honor to walk alongside others as they navigate life's challenges, helping them feel truly known and understood. I believe that anyone can benefit from participating in therapy and having a safe space to work toward their goals. Helping you reach higher toward growth and healing is my goal in every session. To get there, we'll work together to create a comfortable, judgment-free space so you can let it all out - the hurts from the past, complicated feelings, and anything else you may want to share.
