I specialize in working with clients that try to manage life's pain with substances and other addictions. Many of my clients want to simply change their using habits and I work to support them weekly in understanding their intentions, feelings and motivations as they make healthy changes to their relationship with alcohol or other drugs. As we well know, many clients suffering from substance use disorders have a myriad of other issues that drive these compulsive coping mechanisms; I am a certified EMDR therapist and EMDR consultant in training utilizing this knowledge to help resolve underlying concerns related to trauma.

We live in a time when we are always busy. We rush from one appointment to the next and continually strive to prove ourselves to those around us. It can all become exhausting and overwhelming to our nervous system if we don’t disrupt this pattern. I’m here to give you something different that will help you recharge and heal. You get to choose between talk therapy sessions and structured EMDR sessions, in person or virtually. My style is not to just sit there, say “mm-hmm” and nod as you talk. I’m going to be honest and direct with you, while also being compassionate and empathetic to what you’re going through.

I have over 10 years of experience supporting preteens, teens, and adults across various settings. Many of the people I work with feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or stuck - within themselves, in their relationships, or in long-standing patterns shaped by early environment, past experiences, or neurodevelopmental differences. This can often show up as anxiety or depression, intense emotions, conflict in relationships, shutdowns or acting out, a need to escape or withdraw, or difficulty feeling grounded or connected.

Do you feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or burdened by shame or self-doubt?
Are there thoughts, feelings, emotions, or beliefs that feel frightening, confusing, or difficult to put into words?
So many of us are carrying the weight of unrealistic societal and familial expectations, alongside painful generational patterns, which continues harmful cycles that show up in every part of your life including your relationships, approach to parenting, and even how you treat yourself.

Many of us are feeling overwhelmed and stressed out right now. Recent and ongoing events are likely to trigger things that have happened in our past and can make it even more difficult to get through the day. Maybe you're feeling guilty because you feel like you "should" be grateful right now, but you really just feel awful. Whatever you are going through, talking to a therapist can be a lifesaver. We can help you make sense of what is going on in the world and your life, and help you feel supported and empowered in this time of uncertainty. We are here to be your non-judgemental support.

Do you long to feel seen, heard, understood, and accepted in your relationships? When communication breaks down or conflict keeps repeating, it can leave you feeling lonely, frustrated, or unsure how to move forward. Many people come to therapy feeling stuck in painful patterns with their partner, overwhelmed as a parent, or navigating a difficult season of life. I work with couples and romantic relationships, families, adolescents age 13 and older, and adults who want support strengthening their relationships and developing a deeper understanding of themselves.
