I work with children, teens, individual adults, and couples or relationships, helping navigate challenges such as anxiety (including social, performance ( sports), and test anxiety), panic attacks, ADHD, depression, trauma and PTSD, relationship and family dynamics, academic stress, life transitions, self-esteem and body image concerns, grief, domestic violence, cultural issues, and LGBTQ support.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially when life feels overwhelming, confusing, or lonely. You might be feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure how to navigate your emotions and relationships. I offer a warm, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can show up as your full self and start to better understand what’s happening inside you and around you. Whether you’re a teenager, college student, athlete, adult, part of a couple/relationship, or parent/caregiver, my goal is to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and in control of your emotions and your life.

The stressors of school, work, and relationships can often be overwhelming. Whether you are a young man, adolescent, or parent seeking support, navigating mental health can be confusing and isolating. Rather than focusing on what is “wrong,” I work in collaboration to cultivate what is working well. Our work invites change through hard work, awareness, and seeking truth; exploring both bright and dark. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, young adults, athletes and parents.

I’ve always been searching for the root of things. That search led me to the body, where I discovered the nervous system is the foundation of healing. I’m a somatic therapist certified in the Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) and an Intermediate Level student in Somatic Experiencing (SE). I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, and complex trauma, as well as creatives, athletes, and caregivers who want to feel at home in themselves again. You’re not broken—you may have just never been given the roadmap to your own nervous system.

I enjoy working with clients who are looking to explore new ways to understand themselves, their relationships, and the reasons for their distress. I think that most of our depression, anxiety, or trauma responses come from a place of protectiveness and if we can learn to have empathy for ourselves in these reactions, we can learn to choose when to double-down and when to let go.

Are your existing coping skills not feeling effective enough? Do you feel overwhelmed often? You might be thriving in some aspects of your life, but feeling unhappy or unfulfilled in other areas. Well, you're not alone. We all struggle with some level of anxiety, stress, burnout, and other difficult feeling states. It's part of being human in this very complex and demanding culture that we live in today. With so many things "to-do," goals to accomplish, and people to please, it's easy to feel disconnected from what truly matters and brings meaning to life. Living on an autopilot survival loop. Can you relate?

Sports Performance Therapists
How does sports psychology work?
Sports psychology helps athletes identify and overcome challenges, such as perfectionism or a fear of failure, and improve key mental skills, such as confidence or concentration. By applying principles and techniques from psychology, such as goal-setting, visualization, positive self-talk, and emotion regulation, sports psychologists help athletes improve their performance on the field and their well-being overall.

How long does treatment for a sports-related problem take?
The duration of sports psychology treatment depends on the athlete’s individual challenges, goals, the complexity of the interventions used, and even on the length of the season. A performance anxiety issue may be treated with a short-term treatment, like Cognitive behavioural therapy, while issues such as depression, substance abuse, or severe anxiety may require longer-term treatments.

How effective is treatment for sports performance problems?
Sports psychology has been shown to improve performance and help athletes manage their emotions. Sports psychology can be effective in boosting performance, team dynamics, and injury rehabilitation. Over the past decade, nearly every professional sports team in every major sport has added a sports psychologist to its staff. Many colleges have done the same, and even some high school programs have done the same. Olympic hopefuls may consult with sports psychologists starting in elementary school.

What are the limitations of sports psychology?
Sports psychology may have several limitations. Every athlete is unique and may respond differently to sports psychology treatments. Therapy can help an athlete reach their potential; it can help athletes cope with injury and pain, but it cannot change the physical limitations that may be affecting an athlete’s performance.
