“I struggle to get out of bed.” “I don’t like who I am.” Living with depression, anxiety, or the lingering effects of trauma can make daily life feel overwhelming. Asking for help can feel intimidating, but reaching out is a courageous step—and I am here to walk alongside you. We all carry a collection of experiences that shape who we are, and I will support you in navigating your journey so you can create meaningful change. Often, survival strategies we develop in difficult environments need to be met with understanding and courage when we work toward becoming our best selves.

Hi there! I know it can be challenging to accept help and be ready to confront the issues that life has thrown your way. It is my goal to provide you with a safe and accepting space to show up as you are so that we can "dig through the weeds” together and make the changes that allow you to live a more fulfilling life. I work with a wide range of issues including trauma, grief, mood disorders, and neurodivergence. I utilize an eclectic array of modalities including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Polyvagal theory.

"I feel overwhelmed by life." "I don't feel like I am living life, instead I feel like I am stuck in survival mode." "I do not know how to move forward." You might be dealing with anxiety, depression, or the lingering effects of trauma, and it’s hard to know where to begin. If you’ve been carrying emotional or physical pain for a long time, it can feel isolating - but you don’t have to figure it out alone.

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!

Life is overwhelming at times. We live in a world that often asks us to do more, while also leaving us vulnerable to constant comparison with others. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, loss, or relationship struggles, some days might feel especially heavy, and even getting through the day can feel like a challenge.

“I don’t like what I see in the mirror.” “My mind is overwhelmed with racing" Whether you're navigating the emotional landscape of neurodivergence, caregiving, trauma, life transitions, grief, depression, or anxiety, you deserve a space where your experiences are seen, honored, and understood. I specialize in working with individuals facing challenges related to neurodivergent identities, caregiving roles, life-changing illness or injury, trauma, and major life transitions. I am both LGBTQIA+ and disability affirming, and I work from a place of deep respect for the many ways we live, adapt, and heal.

I offer a range of specialty services that generally fall outside the typical categories and tend to use a “whole person” approach to treatment and stabilization, though over the last 10+ years of intensive couple’s and individual work I’ve treated almost everything and welcome all issues large or small, no matter the complexity. I offer Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy as well as Spiritual Emergence Coaching and meditation training for issues where mental health and spirituality meet. Lastly, I offer specialty testing to precisely identify problems and diagnoses, then use these to best determine what treatment will be most helpful.

“I feel like I can’t shut my brain off"; “Every conversation turns into an argument"; “I don’t even recognize myself anymore”. I know how overwhelming it can feel when life's pressures make it hard to breathe. You feel like no matter how hard you try; your worries always get the best of you. It's painful when you want to build healthier relationships, but fear and miscommunication keep creating distance between you and the people you care about. I hear how frustrating it is when you feel like your emotions are out of control, leaving you feeling helpless and isolated.

As a Registered Play Therapist who specializes in working with children 10 and under, I believe and know that children cannot process the same way that we adults do, which is why talk therapy won't work well for them. For children, play is their language and the toys are their words (Landreth). I am trained to communicate and use their play to reach their goals ( little do the kids realize what important work they are doing!) My job is to help them realize their best selves while helping you as their parent and caregivers understand and parent them in ways that can speak not only to their strengths but yours as well.

"I feel like life's challenges are becoming too much to handle." "There is tension in my relationships." "I feel like there is always conflict in my family." "Past trauma is weighing me down." You might feel stuck in patterns that don’t serve you, struggling to connect with others or even with yourself. These feelings can be isolating, leaving you uncertain about where to start or how to move forward. If this sounds familiar, I want you to know that there’s hope and a path forward.

Welcome! Thanks for taking the time to look at my profile. I have to be honest, I don’t like writing these “therapist bios” because it is so difficult to accurately describe the therapeutic process and it often sounds cheesy but here goes my best attempt. I have over 10 years of experience providing counseling services to college students, young adults and members of the LGBTQ+ communities. I have specialized training in trauma informed care, internal family systems and addiction focused treatment. My approach is flexible, person centered, I use humor and I am adaptable to the needs of each individual I work with.

“I keep telling myself to breathe, but even my mind won’t slow down.” “It feels like I’m standing in the middle of a storm that no one else can see.” Anxiety can take hold in ways that make peace feel out of reach—racing thoughts, constant worry, and a restlessness that never seems to ease. You might find yourself lying awake at night, replaying the day, or feeling uneasy in situations that once felt comfortable. Over time, this tension can spill into every area of your life, feeding depression, resurfacing old pain, or straining your most important relationships. Even when you try to push forward, the exhaustion can feel relentless

"My mind never stops racing, and it’s exhausting just trying to keep up." "I feel like I am carrying a heavy weight every day, making everything feel pointless." "No matter how much time passes, the memories still feel fresh and painful." True healing begins with acceptance—acknowledging the wound not to push it away, but to understand its depth and significance. Whether you're grappling with anxiety, depression, or trauma, the first step is to approach your experience with gentle curiosity and compassion. Therapy provides a space to hold these feelings, not erase them, and to turn pain into a source of insight and healing.
