As a Therapist, I want to provide my teen and adult clients with a safe space to process through challenging experiences, to better understand and explore their emotions, and to empower them to create attainable goals for the future. In therapy sessions, I work to listen, validate, and challenge in order to help clients create better methods of coping and also increase their self-compassion. This typically results in improvements in anxiety, depression, and negative beliefs.

Do you feel that life is not how it’s meant to be- that you’re only surviving rather than living to the full? Often we feel overwhelmed by anxiety, sadness, and painful experiences and our relationships can feel challenging. I work with clients navigating emotions, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I am here to come alongside you: to support you as you engage your emotions and your life story, and guide you in holding hope and healing. As a Christian, I also welcome conversations about faith and incorporate it into sessions when desired.

If trauma has shaped your story, I help you discover that it doesn’t have to define your future.

EMDR is a powerful, evidence-based approach that supports the brain’s natural healing process, creating lasting change and renewed momentum. With children and younger adolescents, I integrate play therapy and expressive arts based approaches to foster emotional expression, build resilience, and support healthy development.

Traditional talk therapy has not felt "enough". Meditation doesn't help. Overstimulated by emotions you can't quite explain, in your mind or body? Stuck in patterns or relationships that leave you drained or defeated. The clients we see often struggle with managing emotions, pain, anxiety, dissociation, depression, and grief. They have experienced painful things in the past that they have buried. We help your brain process these things and heal in a SAFE manner. Our therapy is about having a warm place to share how you are really doing, & it's more than talking—it's a secure place to reconnect with yourself & God to truly HEAL.

You've spent years being what everyone else needed — the devoted partner, the good kid, the one who keeps it together. But somewhere along the way, you lost yourself. Maybe your relationship fell apart. Maybe you're still in one that no longer fits. You might be carrying shame about your sexuality, your desires, or the simple fact that you want more. As a Certified Sex Therapist, I work with women, men, and queer individuals navigating people pleasing shame, and seeking self-discovery after dissatisfying relationships and stifling families of origin. Together, we'll figure out who you actually are and what you want.

Quality treatment gets expensive. I offer some unique ways to bring down the costs, such as a significant prepaid discount and shorter or less expensive sessions available during harder-to-fill times in my schedule (usually mid-day). Shorter sessions are ideal for homework follow-up while doing ERP for OCD and CBIT for Tics.
I have experience specializing in mutliple diagnoses and have worked with clients from 2 to 98 years old. If you are facing complex issues and have struggled with finding effective treatment in the past, let's talk! It may be that your effort has been enough, but the treatment or pace was not the right fit.

Do you feel anxious, stuck, or unsure of yourself in relationships? Maybe you overthink texts, question your choices, or find yourself repeating patterns that leave you feeling disconnected or unfulfilled. You might crave closeness while also feeling overwhelmed by it, unsure how to trust yourself or others.

You want calmer, more secure connections and relationships that feel safe, mutual, and emotionally nourishing.

Let's face it, raising teenagers is hard. No one prepares you for the day to day emotional challenges that come with caring for your teen. I will also tell you a little secret, it's also hard being a teen. Adolescence is a time where teens are figuring out who they are, where they fit in, all while trying to balance raging hormones and the never ending pressure to be someone else. Whether you are the parent struggling to communicate better with your teen, or the teen trying to navigate your burgeoning independence, my hope is to provide a warm space where healing and restoration can begin.

Life is full of inevitable difficulties, and how you approach them matters. In sessions, I work to provide a supportive environment where you can feel safe to untangle your thoughts and feelings. As I work alongside you, I aim to use feedback, honesty, compassion, empathy, and humor to help you find healing and a better understanding of yourself. I apply my cultural background, education, and experiences with trauma-informed care to create my own unique philosophy in helping others; the main pillar of that philosophy being self-awareness.
