Are you struggling with anxiety or panic attacks that make it difficult to feel safe, even in familiar places? Do mood swings, emotional numbness, or feelings of guilt, anger, or shame leave you feeling “stuck”? Are trust issues or a sense of isolation affecting your relationships? Do you feel hopeless or directionless, unable to see a future full of possibility? Flashbacks, intrusive memories, or nightmares? Avoiding people, places, or emotions because confronting them feels too overwhelming? Struggling with low self-esteem or fatigue/insomnia? These are all signs of trauma still affecting you—but it doesn’t have to control you.

My first experience with psychology came at the age of 8 when my parents took me to see their counselor, Greg. He was so helpful that I was inspired to follow in his footsteps and become a counselor too. Today, I feel fortunate to be able say that I love what I do.

Hello and welcome! It's not easy being a human navigating complex systems and interruptions to our preferred narrative of life. Our agency can become overshadowed by biological, social, psychological, cultural, familial, and political expectations - leaving us feeling conflicted, fatigued, reactive, confused, and uncertain. Utilizing a unique combination of narrative therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and polyvagal theory, I collaborate with clients age 13 and up, to identify how these expectations cause conflict and reconstruct experiences where the client can respond to life from a place of agency and Self.

Everyone, no matter how young or old, can experience times of overwhelming stress, anxiety, and depression. Whether you are burdened by everyday life or have experienced stressful or traumatic events in the past, sometimes it takes more than "just time" to heal. Sometimes it takes a safe, comforting place and a person dedicated to helping you address those difficulties to overcome life's obstacles and come out on the other side. As a therapist, I believe in creating a warm and supportive environment where you feel heard, understood, and respected. My approach is gentle, genuine, and honest.

If you feel like you're "not enough," let's talk. You may think you're not smart enough, not successful enough, not accomplished enough... or just simply not "good" enough. You may already know those accusations aren't true, but they still just feel so real. Your "not enough" might be spiritual: "I don't see how I fit into the bigger picture." Or, your "not enough" might be based in identity: "I don't know who I really am," or, "No one will love me for who I really am." There are countless reasons people get stuck in feeling like they're "not enough." Whatever your specific reasons are, I want to help you discover your "enough."
