Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, from others or from yourself? Maybe trauma, anxiety, anger, or depression has quietly taken over. I help people navigate emotional pain by combining practical tools with deep, subconscious healing. I’m a licensed professional counselor with a background in hypnotherapy, decades of experience, and a unique approach that bridges the science of the mind with the wisdom of the unconscious-spiritual. If you're struggling with trauma, emotional regulation, divorce, addiction, or anxiety, we can work together to create clarity, calm, and lasting change.

Currently accepting new clients! - I believe we are all doing the best we can with the tools and capacity we have at the time. While neither of us can magically eliminate the challenges you are experiencing, we can work together to strengthen your tools and your capacity. I believe self-awareness is the first step toward growth, but on its own it is not enough. Only when paired with self-compassion can we make meaningful changes in our lives and in ourselves. I love supporting people as they explore who they are and engage in the challenging pursuit of growth and finding purpose.

You deserve to take time for yourself and figure out how to experience joy and peace everyday. If you are in the midst of a life transition, pregnancy and postpartum, or are experiencing anxiety, life can feel completely overwhelming. There is a lot that comes with different stages of life, the new anxieties, the uncertainty, the intrusive thoughts, the overwhelming stress. And the big question of how to integrate all of the new experiences into your identity without losing yourself. Right now you feel helpless but it doesn't have to stay that way!
