You’re likely my ideal client if you’re high-functioning, self-aware, and completely over holding it all together. Anxiety, grief, stress, or life just quietly piling up has you wanting some mental breathing room — not a therapy experience that feels stiff or performative. You want a laid-back, trustworthy clinician who can handle your real thoughts, dark humor, mixed emotions, and occasional verbal chaos without judgment or flinching. This is a space where you can unload the unedited version of yourself, feel genuinely accepted, and still do meaningful work. We’ll focus on clarity, relief, and real change — without therapy feeling

If you've found your way here, something has likely been weighing on you for a while. Maybe you're in the middle of a big life change — a divorce, a shift in who you are as a parent, or a relationship that left you questioning your own reality. Maybe anxiety or depression has quietly shaped your days for so long it feels like just the way things are. Maybe you give and give and give, and somewhere along the way lost track of what you actually need.
I'm here to help, let's work through this together. I meet each person where they are. Some sessions call for going deep; others call for a good laugh and a reset. Both are welcome here.

My original purpose in becoming a psychologist was to understand how to help children who are hurting. I serve children and adolescents who are struggling with a wide variety of concerns, often trauma, depression, anxiety, or self-injury. Of course this also involves support and guidance for their parents. I enjoy using this same developmental perspective to help adults who are struggling with the impact their childhood now has on them, for instance addressing codependency, boundaries, or experiences of childhood abuse. It is a joy to see clients discovering and blossoming into who they are created to be.

Hey there! I offer online therapy for adults and couples. truly believe that our scars can guide us toward discovering our deepest strengths, building confidence, and reconnecting with who we are at our core. Your experiences and untold stories matter deeply to me, and I want to hear them. Oftentimes, our early experiences and relationships shape our thoughts, feelings, and decisions. As a result, we may find ourselves repeating similar patterns in our lives or relationships. These patterns can leave us feeling stuck, even when we genuinely want things to be different.

Sometimes life hits harder than it should- whether it’s something that happened once, like an accident or assault, or stress that’s built up over years in family life, military, or emergency response. You might feel anxious, shut down, or like you can’t fully relax, no matter how much you try. These are often the lasting effects of long-term stress or trauma.

For some of you, this is the first time you are choosing to live the life you want to live outside of the cultural and religious lines that were set for you. For others, this is the first time you are setting out on your own in a new city for school or a job. Maybe you just went through your first breakup and are rediscovering yourself. Maybe this is the first time you’re grieving the loss of someone. These first moments can be significant in life, and while some firsts are more exciting than others, they all have something in common, our first moments, whatever they are, can bring out a mixed bag of complicated feelings.
