You might be the strong one, the fixer, the one everyone leans on... but inside you’re exhausted, anxious, or just not feeling like yourself. That’s where we come in. You don’t have to hold it all together here. It's exhausting. Be you and let us help the best part of you shine! We’re a group of real people who also happen to be really good therapists. We’re not going to stare at you blankly or ask, “And how does that make you feel?” on repeat. We actually care, we’re not afraid to be human in the room, and we know that healing happens when you feel safe, seen, and not judged.

I work with women who have recently experienced a traumatic event and help them return to a sense of normal. I also work with women who have experienced traumas in the distant past but who have been feeling chronically anxious, depressed, out of control and/or hopeless. Perhaps you cannot remember the last time you did not feel anxious or depressed. Or perhaps your body being in stress for so many years has created health issues. Or perhaps you have turned to compulsive behaviors to escape or numb the pain such as over drinking, over eating, perfectionism, codependency, dieting, binge watching TV and more.

I work primarily with neuro-complex and gifted adults with relational and systemic trauma. My clients typically have intersectional and multiple marginalized identities and have been functioning at a very high level within dominant culture (higher ed, corporate America, healthcare, the law, etc) - but are struggling with how unhealed patterns keep showing up in their lives; in their relationships, their career, and in their own sense of self. They've done everything right and excelled, but are left with anxiety, burnout, toxic relationships, loneliness, existential dread...the math ain't mathin' and they need help figuring shit out.

I have been a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist since April of 2000. Much of my work focuses on helping my clients find acceptance in themselves listen to their own voices and create a fulfilling life. I believe that each of my clients is an expert in their own lives. In that way, our sessions become a joint process rather than an "expert/patient" experience.

We all have the capacity to grow, learn, and make positive changes no matter what life throws our way. Psychotherapy is a way of understanding personal conflicts and creating meaning through self-discovery. It is one of the first steps towards achieving change. My style of treatment aims at exploring and understanding ways of thinking, behaving and relating to others that are outside of the one's personal awareness. This lack of awareness can often result in repetitive patterns of behavior that leads to dissatisfaction and emotional anguish in a person's life.

I believe therapy works best when it feels safe, collaborative, and human. My role as a therapist is to offer a space where you can slow down, feel understood, and explore what’s getting in the way of living the life you want. I work with clients who may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or uncertain about their next steps. Together, we’ll look at patterns, experiences, and emotions with curiosity rather than judgment. I aim to support you in developing insight, resilience, and practical tools that fit your real life—not just theory.

It’s not uncommon to feel stuck in familiar patterns without fully understanding where they came from and why they still exist. When much of life has been shaped by survival, adapting, or meeting expectations, staying connected to yourself can become difficult. Over time, this can create uncertainty about who you are and what you want now. Therapy is a journey of self-exploration where we can slow down and gently explore what has shaped you, what you’ve had to carry, and what may be ready to shift so you can move toward a life that feels more aligned and meaningful.
