I look forward to working with you on making and taking the choices and actions that move you towards building a life filled with meaning based on your values and goals. The struggles we all face, large and small, are part of what define our humanity - be it anxiety, trauma, or confusion. It is the compassion and willingness for intimacy we show to ourselves and others that defines much of the rest. I enjoy working with my clients as they go through the process of defining who and what they want to be and then help them go about achieving it.

You are not alone in the challenges you face. Life puts us through a lot hurdles, and it is important for you to be supported through those. Maybe you are having difficulty processing events from your past. Perhaps you are experiencing a stressful life-transition or are feeling stuck, lost, or stressed. Therapy can help you process those experiences. My approach to counseling is collaborative and client-oriented. My goal is to empower clients to accept themselves for who they are and to find resiliency in a way that is collaborative and supportive.

I strive to find solutions that are "Skills Over Pills" when starting therapy. I am passionate about helping teens and adults that are struggling to better themselves. It can be scary to feel that you are “behind others” in life, but I can help you refocus on the positive aspects of yourself and what you are truly capable of. I specialize in LGBTQ+, anxiety, depression, life changes, ADHD, and eating disorders. I have worked with individuals, groups, and in hospital settings. I also taught parenting classes and have experience with career counseling. All of my experience is focused on guiding others along their journey.

I believe that the meaning, or sometimes “lack of meaning,” we apply to our situations, experiences, people, and ourselves is often the root of much discomfort and suffering. In meeting with individuals, I hope to learn, understand, and share your experiences to explore what meaning is being applied and if perspective and approaches need to be adjusted

I have a passion for working with overwhelm as it manifests through anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and disordered eating. I utilize my training in Somatic Experiencing, Jungian Psychology, and small group dynamics to empower adolescents and adults to create and lead their ideal lives. I deeply enjoy helping clients discover the love for themselves–body, mind, spirit, heart—they have been seeking elsewhere, often all their lives.
