Do you feel everything deeply, yet still feel disconnected from yourself?
You may function well on the outside by appearing capable, responsible, even accomplished, but inside feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unlike yourself. You might overthink, second-guess, or notice the same patterns repeating in relationships, stress, or caregiving roles.
I work with adults navigating trauma, chronic emotional overwhelm, and life transitions.
Before becoming a therapist, I spent 25 years in forensic science. I understand reinvention from the inside out—and I know it's possible. I'll meet you wherever you are.

Life can feel incredibly heavy at times, and it can feel like it won't let up. You may be struggling with anxiety, trauma, or patterns that persist despite your best efforts. It might be hard to put into words what you are experiencing, whether you are new to therapy or have been in it before. You deserve a space where your symptoms are not treated as a problem to be solved, but where you are seen as a person who needs a safe place to land. My goal is to help you build the tools and self-understanding needed to navigate daily life with more ease.

Welcome! Reaching out for support is an important and necessary first step toward greater wellness and overall happiness.
