Pain hurts and is often what brings us into therapy. Buried in the hurt is a small seed of a hope for change. As your therapist, I see you as a whole and complex person and not just your "problems." As safety and trust are created between us, therapy and the therapeutic relationship can be a vehicle for change and healing. The unique relationship we'll build will provide new ways of being and relating out in the world and within you.

As a woman or mother, you give so much to everyone else that there’s little left for you. On the outside, you appear capable, accomplished, and in control, but inside, you feel exhausted, anxious, and stuck. Maybe you’ve tried therapy before and gained insight, yet real change still feels out of reach, and you’re ready to do more than just talk. You want to feel grounded, confident, and more connected to yourself and your relationships.

Therapy with me is less about “fixing” and more about creating a space where you can feel truly seen, heard, and supported. Healing happens in safe, compassionate relationships, and my goal is to walk alongside you as you navigate life’s challenges and rediscover your own strength. My style is warm, collaborative, and conversational. I draw from evidence-based approaches, but I also believe in the power of humor, curiosity, and real human connection. I want you to feel comfortable being yourself, not like you’re in a clinical box.

I work with adults and adolescents who feel disconnected from their feelings or their bodies, yet are highly sensitive and have a desire to know themselves more deeply. I treat individuals who suffer from persistent anxiety, dissociation or numbness, and those afraid of conflict and asserting themselves. My clients tend to find themselves in cycles of unfulfilling relationships or burn out, and are seeking a more sustainable lifestyle. Artists, students, and ambitious professionals often find their way to my practice.

You may look successful and high-achieving on the outside but feel stuck in waves of overwhelm or disconnection on the inside. You might struggle with past trauma, attachment wounds, binge eating, relationship patterns, or feeling overly in your head and cut off from your body.

I'm here to help!

There's a well known proverb that says "Love your neighbors as you love yourself," but to do that you must first accept and love yourself, and then your light will radiate onto others. Are you in a place where you can love others? Or do you find yourself pouring more and more from an empty cup? Or could it be that you're just stuck, paralyzed by your fears and the unknown, and just don't know how and when to take that next step? Likewise, have you completed a round of therapy, and just need the support, encouragement, or just a "Refresher" to maintain the gains you've made in therapy?
