Welcome! You are in the right place. Now is the time. The first step toward getting somewhere, changing something, is to become aware that you can’t stay where you are. Accepting the change and all that follows takes courage, compassion and curiosity. I look forward to supporting you and walking alongside you as you return to your Self and lean in to feeling more alive and connected. You've got this!

Each of us deserves to have a healthy, fulfilling, and loving intimate relationship. Unfortunately, you may be struggling in your relationship and have doubts about its future. You may be experiencing constant arguments, periods of the silent treatment or ongoing tension because important topics are not being discussed to avoid conflict.
You may be concerned that you or your partner are struggling with challenges like depression, anxiety or ADHD. I work with couples in all stages of relationships: dating, engaged, early marriage, new parents, mid-life and empty nesters.

Hello! Are you feeling anxious? Struggling with ADHD? Feeling overwhelmed by early parenthood? Has your faith journey led you somewhere you didn't expect? There is space for you here. Seeking therapy is a brave and vulnerable step forward and I am glad you are seeking support. I approach therapy with curiosity, warmth, and practicality. Together we will ask questions- about how things are, how things were, and how things could be, in order to better understand the patterns keeping you stuck. Through honest communication and exploration we will discover together a more grounded way of being.

I work with men and women who are tired of feeling stuck in unhealthy patterns, relationship conflict, anxiety, or a version of themselves that clearly is not working anymore. Many of my clients are struggling in relationships, questioning their marriage, going through divorce, or realizing they cannot keep pretending everything is fine. I work best with people who genuinely want their lives to change, even if they feel overwhelmed or unsure where to start. My approach is direct, practical, compassionate, and occasionally humorous, because sometimes therapy is funny. I value honesty, accountability, and actual effort toward change.

Are you feeling stuck, anxious, or discontent with either your personal life or your relationship? You're not alone. Many of my clients come to therapy during times of transition, when conflict or disconnection are taking a toll, or when something just feels "off" but hard to name. As a trauma informed therapist, I help individuals and couples uncover the root of recurring patterns, build emotional resilience and move toward lasting change. Whether you're seeking premarital counseling, navigating relationship struggles or working through anxiety or self-doubt, I provide a supportive, compassionate space for healing and growth.

I blend traditional, evidence-based practices with holistic practices, such as mindfulness, meditation, and yoga (and a touch of humor!), to guide you on a path toward self-healing and understanding. I specialize in helping manage challenges of OCD, stress, depression, and anxiety. I also provide executive function, self-regulation, and social skills support related to ADHD, autism, and other related challenges. Along with client care, I work with parents and caretakers of children with disabilities to help them overcome everyday challenges, navigate the intricacies of special education, and discuss how to best support their child.

My intention as a counselor is to form a relationship which becomes a safe place within which you can explore the nature of persistent obstacles which leave you feeling confused, overwhelmed, or "stuck." We will look at your style of relating to others, habits and patterns formed throughout the years, as a way to gain insight into who you are and where you would like to be. We will explore the significant relationships in your life (FAMILY OF ORIGIN, romantic, friendships) as well as your relationship with yourself (your emotions, how you handle and/or address conflict, anxiety, stress, sadness).

Are you feeling overwhelmed and stuck—struggling with anxiety, depression, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or self-doubt? You may understand these struggles intellectually, yet still feel caught in patterns that are difficult to change. These patterns may be connected to attachment wounds, painful family dynamics, trauma, grief, or the emotional impact of chronic illness. Even when things look “fine” on the outside, you may feel disconnected, exhausted, or unsure how to move forward. You’re wanting relief from emotional overwhelm, along with a clearer sense of self, deeper connection with others, and renewed purpose and meaning.

Are you looking for a deeper understanding of yourself, your relationships, and how you relate to the world? Maybe you're a big feeler who has been called "too sensitive" or "too much." A neurodivergent person and frustrated with feeling alienated. A chronically ill human who is feeling invisible. Or a queer or trans person looking for a provider who you don't have to explain yourself to. If you're carrying the weight of trauma, discrimination, marginalization, or hopelessness, you are not alone. To the softies, creatives, punks, freaks, and weirdos; you are welcome here exactly as you are.

During times of stress and transition, seeking therapy can be a source of support, comfort, and even inspiration. My experience has focused on creative and body-centered approaches to growth and healing, including art therapy, trauma-sensitive yoga, dreamwork, and EMDR. This includes grief work and issues that accompany trauma-related treatment, such as anxiety, depression, and existential/spiritual issues. Additional themes in clients' healing work include explorations of relationships, sexuality, and identity. I love working co-creatively with clients of all ages and backgrounds.
