Depression, overwhelming stress, racing thoughts, painful memories, relationship struggles, existential questions — whatever keeps you up at night or keeps you in bed all day — it’s human, and sometimes it’s hard to be human. Turning toward our pain and taking a step toward healing takes tremendous courage. My approach to therapy is to honor that courage and walk alongside you with compassion and curiosity. My role is to shine a light on your next step. I’ve had the privilege of helping many individuals, couples, and families resolve conflict, rediscover joy, and find meaning in the midst of loss.
I use an eclectic mix of trauma-focused therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the
Gottman Method, somatic therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and faith-based
counseling (upon request). I work with individuals, couples, and families facing trauma, marital and relational challenges, postpartum concerns, depression, anxiety, and life transitions.
Together, we’ll work to build insight, strengthen coping and regulation skills, and help you move toward greater wholeness and well-being. Along the path of therapy, there may be tears — but there will be laughter, hope, and renewal too. My role is to shine a light on your next step. It would be an honor to walk with you on your journey as well.
