Learning to live in our own skin—in the world, no matter what we’ve been through—is a lifelong journey.
You’re an adult. You may or may not be a veteran. You’re facing life changes. You feel stuck. Maybe you’re relying on coping skills that give you short-term relief, but leave you feeling worse in the long run. Or you’ve been plagued by depression, anxiety, or a sense of being overwhelmed. You're looking for meaningfulness, purposefulness, and/or confidence.
You’re not alone. We all want the same things: connection, clarity, a life worth living.
Who you’ve been is not nearly as exciting as who you can become!
I offer individual therapy using structured and eclectic approaches including:
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for depression and anxiety
- Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
- Interpersonal Therapy for Depression (IPT-D)
- Substance Use counseling and education
Always trauma informed and tailored to you.
We all feel overwhelmed sometimes. You may be haunted by painful memories or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Even “solutions” can become problems. Let’s take a look together—with another set of eyes—and explore what truly works for you. You’re not alone. We’re in this together.
