Are you everything that's worked in the past and you’re still left feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, lonely, or like you’re just going through the motions? Does the way you’re showing up in relationships, at work, or in your family feel off? Whether you're experiencing grief or loss, trauma or anxiety, a major life transition or event, or just getting to a point where something isn't working, you deserve a space where you are heard and supported. This is a space for you, your goals, feelings and experience to be carefully explored with a thoughtful, non-judgmental outside perspective and ally on your side.

In therapy, we work to untangle the knots that stifle connection and growth. I bring a curious, creative, and collaborative stance to the practice of therapy, with an aim to expand awareness and deepen understanding of why you feel the way you do. We will work together to loosen the grip of worries and help you feel more connected to your needs and goals. You will become more present and sturdy in your life and relationships.
I am particularly attuned to the impact of trauma, anxiety, life & career transitions, structural challenges, creative blocks, and parenting. I work effectively with couples, adults, and kids.

I want to help you live a life you like. If you struggle with anxiety, depression, rumination, stress, getting stuck in patterns you'd like to change, or recent life transitions, I can help you struggle less, feel more comfortable with yourself, and obtain usable tools to cope with whatever may come your way. These skills will be tailored to you, with a focus on skills that you can use long after therapy has concluded. Our work will center primarily around current patterns and experiences, as well as ways to help change them in the here and now. To do this, I get to know you to find what is working and what isn’t working for you.

Have you reached a crossroads? Are you seeking new tools to make meaningful decisions consistent with where you are now? You may be experiencing challenges in relationships, grief and loss, or trying to navigate disruptive transitions . You know change is necessary, but “knowing” is usually not enough to make lasting change. Exploring obstacles to your wellbeing while developing new tools for transmuting them can greatly enhance your sense of self, the quality of your relationships, and fortify your vision for the future.

Do you struggle with feeling like you’re too much and also not good enough? Do you feel like you’re not worthy? If you’re a queer person, do you feel like you're not queer enough? I understand. I’ve felt that way too. Have you always had to be responsible for everyone? Me too. But tell me, who is taking care of you? I can imagine that you are a person who constantly says yes to things, but often notices a sense of resentment afterwards. What about boundaries? You’re probably like boundaries….I don’t know her! The truth is, if you wrestle with any of the things above, you may be struggling with the effects of trauma.

Our experiences and environment shape us greatly. They define how we perceive the world, impact our relationships, and contribute to developing our strengths. Sometimes we start to see patterns in our lives that are not in alignment with what we expect or what we want for ourselves. Feelings of despair may emerge. People may feel overwhelmed, anxious, experience loss of pleasure, or perhaps and overall loss of meaning. If you have disturbing memories still impacting you today, if you feel anxious in certain situations or overwhelmed attempting to cope with the difficulties in your life, I may be able to assist.

Even when life looks put-together, something underneath can feel off — like you’re moving through the world on autopilot, managing it all but feeling far from yourself. I work with thoughtful, capable adults who are ready to slow down and listen to what their anxiety, exhaustion, disconnection — or even dreams — might be trying to say. Together, we’ll explore the characters that shape your inner world and begin translating the language of your body and unconscious into insight, choice, and meaningful change.

I specialize in working with older adolescents and adults undergoing a wide range of emotional and relational difficulties. I approach therapy with the understanding that each person is completely unique; therefore, I tailor my approach to best meet each individual's needs. Most of my clients are feeling stuck - whether they're stuck in anxiety, stuck in unhealthy relationships, or stuck in patterns that aren't letting them live their most fulfilled lives. I don't provide band-aids; I help my clients explore and understand WHY they're stuck, so they can create real, lasting changes.

Discussing the hurt we face can be freeing. It can be hard to reach out to others in fear of what they may say. We may have experienced childhood wounds that make it difficult to speak of our pain. There may be events happening in our lives that currently cause our mental health to decline. It could be a mixture of many things combined that are causing distress. We are often shamed for being “too emotional” or “too sensitive”. I am here to remind you that you are not weak for having emotions. Together, we can create a safe environment in which you can explore more about these issues and yourself in therapy.

My client-centered approach to therapy places my clients at the forefront of their own healing journey as I guide and support each one of them. I believe that individuals are the experts of their lives and that my role is to provide a safe and nurturing space for growth. My goal is to assist in identifying strengths and inherent characteristics to fuel resiliency in each client. Clients are coached to understand that decisions made, relationships entered into, and responses to triggers are integral in the healing process by recognizing that trauma in its many forms impacts engagement in repetitive and/or negative behaviors.
