I help clients gain perspective and cope more effectively during life transitions. I'll share tools & strategies to help you improve your mental health while providing a warm & non-judgmental space to process life's challenges. If you need support around mood, anxiety, trauma, chronic health conditions, or relationships choosing your therapist is a very important part of the process. My current clients would describe me as open, direct, non-judgmental, and REAL.
I specialize in providing couples therapy, treatment for trauma related disorders, anxiety, depression, neurodivergence, and issues related to major life transitions. I utilize a variety of therapeutic modalities depending on the client's presenting problems and goals for therapy.
If you are struggling and/or with your mental health and/or relationships, going to therapy can help. Take the next step and book an appointment. Contact me here or schedule an appointment or consultation directly on my website.

I focus on helping individual clients adjust to late-diagnosed neurodivergence, women's issues, and trauma recovery. Most clients begin with weekly therapy for 4-6 weeks. Once targeted symptoms improve, we begin to decrease frequency of sessions. Couples work is focused on emotional repair, increasing communication, deepening connection, and improving conflict resolution skills.
