You've spent much of your life doing the things that you "should," so you wonder, "why don't I feel happier?" People may see you as "put together" and accomplished from the outside, but inside, you feel numb, chaotic, anxious, or even broken. I help people who've been through traumatic experiences feel in charge of their lives again without being held back by painful memories from the past. If you feel angry, stressed, depressed, guilty, or self-loathing, I want you to know that there is a way through this to a meaningful and happy life.
Maybe you've considered coming to therapy before, but you've thought, "I can figure this out myself." And while it's true that you are a resourceful person, think of therapy sort of like personal training. You will have me by your side to support you as you work towards becoming your best self.
If you are a military veteran, queer, or gender non-conforming, I can offer you unique insight based on my extensive training, background, and personal history in these areas. We will find the right pace for you, not too fast or too slow, and work together towards your goals. Take the first step and get in touch with me today.

I partner with clients to understand what's happening inside of them that generates the bad feelings that bring people in for therapy. I alternate between deep supportive listening and guiding clients through exercises that help them to change how they feel not only in session, but also out in their lives. Best part? You'll be able to feel therapy working.
