Life has its difficult moments. I specialize in helping people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, ADHD, substance use or are going through some sort of life change. Whether it be life changes like moving or a death of a loved one, switching jobs or recurring relationship issues, change can be tough (even if it a positive one). Do you need someone to talk to in a safe space without feeling judged? I help clients gain new insights into themselves.

In today's hustle culture focused on productivity, many of us are seeking rest, relief, and alternative paths as we move through life. I am of service to anyone who feels traditional talk therapy has not yet met their needs. I offer a holistic blend of somatic, attachment, and nature-based therapy that is trauma-informed. Somatic therapy addresses the root cause of distress from the bottom-up - rather than focusing on surface symptoms - ultimately allowing you to feel more resilient, fulfilled, and at home within yourself and the world. Together we will become familiar with internal and external resources to guide and support you.

I believe that one of the greatest ways that we can empower ourselves to navigate a wide variety of issues is by developing self-awareness and self-compassion. I enjoy working with clients who want a collaborative relationship with their therapist and are willing to approach our work with curiosity and an open mind. I also love to empower individuals and partners with the tools they need to create the changes they seek in their own lives, which requires a mutual investment in and commitment to our work together.

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, therapy can help you understand the patterns beneath anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship struggles. I work with creative, thoughtful adults using Internal Family Systems (IFS) and integrative approaches to explore the parts of you shaped by life experiences. Rather than fighting symptoms, we approach them with curiosity and compassion, gently untangling old patterns and building trust in your own inner wisdom. Therapy becomes a supportive space where all parts of you are welcome and meaningful change can unfold at a pace that feels safe and authentic.

We often place pressure on ourselves to be okay, power through, and be strong. Yet there are times when we need extra support. You may be navigating a major transition, experiencing anxiety or overwhelm, or grappling with grief. You may be a new parent trying to make it through the early postpartum months. You may be pregnant and preparing for big unknowns, or feeling alone in a struggle with fertility. You may be a parent wanting to reconnect with yourself. You may be navigating loss and grief and feeling totally under water. These are vulnerable, tender times when we most need to feel seen and supported with compassion and care.

Therapy doesn’t have to feel like a lecture, or like getting lost in a maze of clinical jargon with no map. If your brain feels like a crowd of rowdy monkeys, or like you’re stuck in loops of overthinking, I’ve got tools for that. My approach is practical, warm, and a little playful, grounded in CBT and brought to life through a metaphor-rich course and method I call Monkeys and Peanut Butter. You’ll get real support, real strategies, and a fresh way to understand your brain. Let’s untangle the chaos and make space for what matters, YOU.

A thorough assessment is the foundation for effective therapy. I begin with a comprehensive biopsychosocial assessment, help you better understand your concerns, and recommend the type of therapy most likely to address them.

If I believe another provider would be better suited to help, I will refer you another recommended therapist.

- Supervision for attaining a WA. State LMHC
- Ongoing supervision for both new and experienced therapists
