You may be feeling stuck—trapped in patterns that no longer serve you, weighed down by anxiety, or struggling to find a sense of connection and peace. Maybe difficult experiences from the past still linger, or relationships feel difficult to navigate. You don’t have to figure this out alone. Healing is possible, and it starts with a space where you can be fully seen, heard, and supported.
Whether you're working through general anxiety and depression, struggling with low self-worth, or untangling challenges around intimacy, infidelity, or sexual identity, I bring a compassionate, affirming, and direct approach.
I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist and sex therapist specializing in trauma, anxiety, and relationships. I have extensive training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), two powerful approaches for healing trauma, reducing anxiety, and deepening self-understanding.
Therapy with me is warm, nonjudgmental, and practical—but it doesn’t have to be heavy all the time. Clients often tell me they appreciate my sense of humor and my ability to make difficult conversations feel approachable. We’ll explore patterns that may be holding you back, build coping strategies, and help you reconnect with yourself and others.
