My ideal client is someone who’s been through the hard stuff like addiction, trauma, grief, combat, or abuse—and feels stuck carrying shame, anger, or mistrust. They’re tired of surface-level therapy and want something real: honesty, tools to reframe harmful patterns, and a safe space to face the past without judgment. Their goal is to move beyond survival, build structure, and find meaning. They want a therapist who “gets it” and will walk beside them, helping turn struggle into resilience.

Life is hard enough with everyday stress—when addiction is added to the mix, it can feel overwhelming, isolating, and hopeless. But there is a way forward. Recovery isn’t about being perfect — it’s about being willing. It’s about using the strengths you already have, even if they feel buried, to take steps toward a better version of yourself. Confidence, hope, and self-worth begin to return as you commit to making positive changes, with support and understanding.

You’re exhausted. Burnout, anxiety, and people-pleasing have taken over, and no matter how hard you try to keep it together, you feel overwhelmed and disconnected. You show up for everyone else, but you’re running on empty—and the perfectionism, shame, and self-doubt just won’t stop. I understand what you're going through because I've been there too. Together we can find the path back to being confident and connected. Another of my specialties is overcoming religious trauma and supporting women through religious deconstruction. If you're starting to ask yourself the hard questions, I'm happy to come alongside you for this journey.

I work with adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck in their thoughts, or pulled in too many directions. For some, that connects to ADHD, trauma, or difficulty managing emotions and relationships. In our work, we focus on making sense of those patterns—how you think, respond, and relate—so things start to feel more manageab

If you’re capable but feel stuck, you’re not alone—and staying stuck doesn't have to be an option. I work with those held back by trauma, depression, and anxiety. Those who are tired of repeating the same patterns: avoidance, inconsistency, overthinking, compulsive habits, and struggles in relationships or reaching their goals. You know you can be operating at a higher level, but something keeps getting in the way. My approach is direct, structured, and results-focused. With a military background, I help you cut through the noise, identify what’s not working, and build practical habits to get you back in control.

I believe therapy is not about changing who you are, but about letting go of who you're not. As a partner and guide for adult individuals and couples, I integrate mindfulness, relational, and cognitive therapies to help you identify and transform irrational thoughts, unhealthy coping strategies, and behavior patterns that may have steered you off course. Through this process of compassionate self-awareness, new perspectives emerge, building confidence in decision-making based on your values, improving communication, and fostering the creation of healthy, fulfilling relationships with yourself and others.

For many first responders, veterans, and medical professionals, their nervous system never quite powers down. You stay alert long after shift, holding tension in your body while pushing emotions aside to keep functioning. The weight of all that responsibility follows you home: making snap decisions, replaying life-and-death outcomes, and trying to forget certain moments. You ache for calm and solid sleep, but it doesn’t happen. There’s distance and isolation, even with the people you love. Being on edge helped you perform under pressure, but it’s left you worn down, reactive, and stuck in survival mode. Something has to change.
