Asking for help is difficult, and finding a therapist you connect with can sometimes feel insurmountable. Whether you’ve decided to go back to therapy, never tried it before, or struggled repeatedly to get started with a therapist, I am here to support you as you begin your journey to exploring and achieving change. As we go about our day to day activities, it is easy to forget to attend to our minds and bodies, connect with our loved ones and communities, keep strong boundaries and live by our values. Oftentimes we desire to try something new, be something new, and despite that we feel we're slipping back into old routines.

Healing and self-discovery are necessary and ongoing processes of a healthy and thriving person. But what does it look like? How does one begin this journey? Though many of us hope to be well and to thrive in relationships, it can be difficult to know where to begin. Unpacking the traumas of your past and allowing yourself to feel your emotions can be overwhelming! My hope is to provide support and to partner with you as you embark on this journey toward mental health and wholeness.

Therapy is only as good as the relationship between therapist and client. I provide a space for the client to explore their vulnerabilities, hopes, challenges and meet them with unconditional positive regard, empathy, and an environment where growth can occur. The human experience is universal and yet it is as unique as each individual human. Culture, family background, and one’s own personal circumstances directly inform a client’s worldview. I work closely with those struggling to manage the stress of daily life and those experiencing challenges related to anxiety, depression, disordered eating, trauma, and relational challenges.

When the burden of carrying trauma and stress becomes too much, people often feel like life is out of control. These periods of personal struggle can be an opportunity for growth and hope instead of continued hurt and personal crisis. Talking to a therapist offers an avenue to understand what is happening to you and your relationships (ie. with loved ones, friends, family, and of course yourself). It is an experience that can help you feel listened to, understood, and help you find solutions to improve how you feel and live.
