Welcome! I am most passionate about supporting clients in the LGBTQ+ community, and those working through religious trauma, childhood trauma, and childhood emotional neglect. I also support clients working through general anxiety and depression symptoms, and various life stressors. We might be a good fit if you are motivated to get to know yourself better, process wounds from past experiences, and practice engaging with life in new ways - when you feel ready. Together we work on challenges like low self-esteem/self-concept, grief, guilt and shame, trouble making decisions, perfectionism, and people pleasing tendencies.

Does it feel like no matter how hard you try, past wounds or relationship struggles still weigh you down? Burnt out by the weight of your daily responsibilities, feeling pressure to be everything to everyone, and paralyzed by anxiety about what life will throw at you next. Battling ever present shame or numbness. Facing constant arguments, a lack of intimacy, or feeling emotionally distant from your partner. You might not even remember when things felt different. But one thing is certain: you’re ready for relief. Ready to feel connected and understood. Ready to feel like yourself again—joyful and confident in your next steps.

As humans, we are always changing. I specialize in working with adolescents, adults, and couples who are ready to take charge of their own change; those who want to ensure that they are getting closer to the best version of themselves. Too often, we feel that the world has taken control over us, and our story is being written for us. However, I do not believe that this has to be the case; you CAN take back your life, and I am excited to partner with you on that journey!

I support adults with identifying the root cause of their emotional pain so they can live their best lives. I feel especially passionate about helping women heal their past wounds and trauma in all its forms (childhood trauma, relational or betrayal trauma, sexual assault, birth trauma). I also help individuals navigate grief and loss and find meaning in their lives again. My approach is holistic in that it encompasses the mind/body/spirit connection and centers the nervous system. I also emphasize attachment styles and inner child work in the healing journey.

What once kept me safe is now holding me back." "I want to see myself in a new way." "I’m ready to stop just surviving and start living." Life can present many challenges that are beyond our control, and these experiences can deeply impact the way we view ourselves and the world around us. Over time, the thoughts and behaviors that once helped protect us may no longer serve our best interests, often holding us back from reaching our full potential. As a counselor, my goal is to support you in navigating these patterns such as trauma, grief, anxiety, and depression, helping find a path toward the most authentic version of yourself.

You’ve been trying to push down the pain from your past, but it’s gotten too big to continue to ignore. The weight is overwhelming, and it’s ruining everything: your relationships, your sleep, and your peace. You want to show up for those you care about, but you can’t when the world feels unsafe and your mind and body are always bracing for impact. It’s like there’s danger around every corner, keeping you on
high alert. You’re quickly triggered and blindsided by things most people think are “no big deal” or take in stride. You’d do anything to overcome what happened and move forward into the life you want.

Starting counseling can feel like a big step—for kids, teens, and families. My goal is to make that step feel comfortable, safe, and even hopeful. I work hard to create a space where young people feel heard, respected, and supported, whether they are dealing with tough emotions, stressful situations, or simply trying to understand themselves better.
