I have over 10 years of experience helping adults work through trauma, anxiety, OCD, and depression.
If you’ve been carrying too much for too long, you’re not weak — you’re tired. Many of the people I work with are competent, capable adults who function well on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, or emotionally exhausted on the inside. Trauma, chronic stress, complicated relationships, or long-standing patterns can quietly shape how we see ourselves and the world. Therapy doesn’t have to feel cold or clinical. Healing can be serious work — and still include moments of relief, perspective, and even humor. Sometimes a well-timed laugh is part of how the nervous system resets. I believe growth happens in safe spaces.

First off, I think it's funny that I'm even a "psychotherapist". I reluctantly started going to counseling myself in college. Surprisingly, it changed my life for the better. I never would have guessed it! It was so beneficial, I ended up getting a master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy...not necessarily as a career choice, but simply to continue my personal learning and growth. I've worked in several other career fields, but no other job has even come close to matching the satisfaction I get from helping people find freedom after experiencing some of their darkest times. Now it has become my passion!

I know it can be hard dealing with constant overthinking and uncertainty. Are you looking for solutions? Do you feel like nobody understands you or wants to listen? Or maybe you have a hard time dealing with your emotions? Your first step is to THINK about what you want and need. Second step is to TALK about your issues and concerns. Third step is to RELEASE what you need to allow yourself to be in a different space.

You may be doing "all the right things," yet something still feels off in your body- tight, guarded, exhausted, or disconnected. I offer therapy that treats you as a whole person, weaving together mind and body to create safety, regulation, and deeper healing. Regulation is not about forcing calm. It's about listening, choice, and meeting your body where it's at.

For many years, my clients have primarily been individuals, groups, and families coming out of abusive and sometimes violent relationships and addiction. Although that was the original primary focus, most also struggled with accompanying factors like depression, anxiety, and other serious mental health diagnoses. My clinical focus has recently shifted to a more community-based population, and I have found this work incredibly rewarding. I enjoy working with additional needs such as grief, prenatal and postpartum depression, and abandonment trauma, to name a few.

Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists
How long does OCD treatment take?
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is often treated on a weekly or twice-weekly schedule, depending on symptom severity and the client’s preferences. Some clients may start to see a noticeable improvement in symptoms in as little as six weeks, but it’s also possible, especially in more severe cases, for treatment to take several months to a year before significant progress is made.
What happens if OCD is not treated?
Some people with OCD, especially those with mild symptoms, may find that they are able to adapt reasonably well to life with the condition, even if their symptoms never resolve completely. However, many people, particularly those whose symptoms are severe at the outset, find that their obsessions and compulsions grow more intrusive with time, making it harder to maintain relationships, hold down a job, or navigate the world successfully.
Are there medications for OCD?
Medication can be used to treat OCD. The class of drugs most often prescribed are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, which include fluvoxamine (under the brand name Luvox), fluoxetine (Prozac), and sertraline (Zoloft), among others. In cases of treatment-resistant OCD, other classes of medication, such as tricyclic antidepressants or atypical antipsychotics, may be prescribed. Medication is frequently used in conjunction with therapy.
Can OCD come back after treatment?
Yes. Major life transitions, periods of stress, or other factors can cause symptoms to return or, if they were never fully eradicated, to ramp back up in intensity. For some, these relapses are brief and do not require additional treatment; identifying specific triggers and practicing the skills learned in therapy can help speed their course. For others, returning to therapy for a brief period can help address the underlying stress and strengthen coping mechanisms.
