There can be so much pressure to get everything right — parenting, marriage, work, health — and you may be left feeling depleted, overwhelmed, or guilty. These things impact how you see yourself and the people around you. They impact how you show up in your life. It doesn’t have to be this way. It may be time to cut through the noise and misinformation. With the right skills and support you can absolutely learn, heal, and become the person, partner, and parent you want to be.

Hi there, and thank you for taking this leap into starting therapy! I work with teenagers ages 12 and up and adults who need extra support and new tools to manage anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, self-harm, and/or suicidal thoughts. I like to provide my clients with tangible skills they can use outside of therapy. I am also passionate about working with people from LGBTQIA+ and gender-nonconforming/expansive communities. Are you ready to change something, but don't know how? Let's work together as a team to figure this out and start moving forward!

Are you feeling overwhelmed, confused, anxious, sad, alone, lost, irritable, emotionally "stuck" or just plain exhausted? Perhaps you have recent or past trauma and have painful memories that seem to have a hold on you, and prevent you from being able to be fully present in your life. Maybe you are struggling with developing or maintaining healthy relationships, or are feeling like your life is unraveling, unfulfilling or unbalanced, with little to no time to take care of yourself. If you are experiencing any of the above, or are seeking self-growth, self-understanding, healing, or positive change, please reach out to me today.

Everyone deserves healing, connection, and the ability to thrive. In this challenging world, I seek to empower individuals to create a healthier way of being where supportive relationships counteract the adverse experiences of life. Using restorative and healing-centered approaches based on the ecological biopsychosocial models of practice, I work in collaboration with those I serve. I offer trauma-informed, regenerative, and liberatory-based practices that balance modern science and research with wisdom and creativity to support the health and well-being of individuals, families, and communities.

I believe that each person has a deep wisdom inside of them, and part of my job is to help you learn and remember how to trust yourself. Supporting people to cultivate both self-awareness and self-compassion are a central focus of mine. I also feel passionate about cultivating a safe and trusted connection with clients that provides the opportunity for healing and growth. Each of us has a unique journey and I help people to feel more at home in themselves, both in times of joy and hardship. Learning to support ourselves in times of pain and suffering takes practice, and we are not meant to do it alone.

In the face of trauma, grief, substance abuse and mental health challenges we can find ourselves weighed down, overwhelmed, hopeless, disconnected and uprooted. My hope in providing therapy support is to walk through those challenges with you and collaborate with you on your journey towards healing, exploration, empowerment, growth and rediscovering your roots.

I appreciate people who care and are engaged, but may need a little help. We are all intelligent, creative, funny and loving. Sometimes, all you need is help finding that path. I like people who are willing to be open and give it a try. This may look like an individual looking to face changes, or maybe a couple looking to learn how to communicate or find that lost spark. In other cases, this may involve business partners or family members learning how to trust one another. I like to work with people who are willing to do the work.

I practice a body-based, relational psychotherapy and incorporate somatic interventions which can uncover and heal dissociated experiences that are often the seeds to adult mental and physical suffering. Together, we will navigate the journey of discovering your inner wisdom and removing barriers to living authentically.
