As you begin your journey towards healing and growth, I want you to know how proud of you I am for taking this step! It takes courage to step out of your comfort zone and to do the hard work of healing, and I would be honored to come along side you in this. Giving in to anxiety, shame, and fear can often feel like the only option but by choosing to work on yourself, you’re choosing more for yourself.

Maybe you have been taught that loving yourself is selfish, you find that you are your own harshest critic, and the voice in your head has a lot of negative things to say. It is difficult to know how to listen to your own needs and make space for them. Therapy is a safe space to give back to yourself and learn to be gentle with your own experience. You are worth the time and energy to love and care for yourself the way you do for others.

Maybe you are struggling to reconcile your past with who you are today. An unaddressed traumatic event. A childhood you wish you could change. A parent whose actions you don't understand. Maybe you simply don't understand where all of your anxiety and sadness is coming from. Your mental health is struggling, and it is impacting your relationships and holding you back from living your life. You are deserving of the time it takes to heal. Your story is valuable, and peace is possible. As your therapist, I hope to help you hold in tension the reality of your past, while encouraging you to find hope for your future.

I enjoy working with clients of all ages to build safer relationships. This is a place to learn how to communicate well and gain strength through self-care as well as stronger family and community connections. I am also LGBTQ+ identified and celebratory and enjoy supporting individual and family journeys toward greater understanding of sexual and gender identities. I partner to facilitate safer and more joyful spaces with Transgender and Gender Expansive folks (because we deserve it) and am excited to support open, polyamorous, ethically non-monogamous and other multiculturally diverse relationship and identity spaces.

I have known since I was a teenager that I wanted to be a social worker. It was when I was 14 that an LCSW was able to connect with me and help me through a dark depression and the amplified anxiety that often goes along with it. It has been my passion since then to provide that same help to others. I have 15 years of experience working in the mental health field, 10 of those as an LCSW. I have experience with individual therapy and group therapy modalities, both on an outpatient and an inpatient basis.

Our world expects so much from people and we are often able to do it all, for a while. Sometimes expectations, both ours and others, smother us and leave us feeling hopeless. We might not be able to move forward in our career, despite excelling in our work. Sometimes we bury emotions, thinking I’ll get to that later, which may result in feeling overwhelmed or feeling nothing at all. Perhaps the demands of career, family, and caring for others leave us feeling exhausted and guilt-ridden. Possibly what has always worked, doesn’t seem to work anymore. Peace may feel out of reach.

Hi, I'm so grateful to connect with you. My deeply held belief is that compassion, togetherness, and shame reduction are the pathways toward healing the most wounded parts of ourselves. Life is really hard and we are not meant to navigate difficulty alone.

You have found the courage to begin, and you want someone to walk with you. Maybe you are tired of feeling the crushing weight of anxiety or depression. Maybe you are the parent of a child with special needs, and you don't know what to do next, but you know you need to do something. Maybe you are finally admitting to yourself the truth about your sexuality, spirituality, or situation, and you are ready to grow into the person you are meant to be. I would be honored to join you on your journey.

Imagine being full of joy, presence, and gratitude. Life can be overbearing at times with all of its troubles. It may feel like you're no longer a driver, but a passenger in your own life. You have difficulty seeing beyond the here and now, unable to find solutions, and you can't come back to a sense of self because everything else seems to be keeping you from peace. You're wanting to take control and live a life you've been dreaming of. I work specifically with addiction, crisis, and suicidal thoughts.

"We do not see things as they are, we see them as we are." -Anais Nin per Talmudic origin. We must create things twice; once in our minds, and once articulated. When we think our thoughts, it lights up one part of the brain, and when we speak our thoughts, it lights up a different part of the brain. There is often something very different when we articulate our thoughts, and they change in some way. Talking out these experiences in a narrative way assists us in making sense of how we feel about those experiences.

Life is a journey you take toward owning your story. Unfortunately, we often encounter obstacles that distort our perspective and hinder our ability to see ourselves accurately and move toward the things that bring us the most joy and peace. Whether you’ve been derailed by traumatic life events, disordered eating, depression and anxiety, addiction, grief, spiritual abuse, or other life altering transitions, it is my belief that you have the strength and resiliency to find a meaningful life living into the fullest expression of who you are.
