I help people explore what’s really happening in their relationships and reconnect with joy. My priority is helping you feel understood and no longer alone. We do that by feeling together—crying, being angry, grieving, and experiencing joy. Often this means noticing and expressing what wasn’t safe or encouraged to feel in childhood or past relationships. Together, we explore what shaped you and what you learned is safe or not, so you can rewrite those lessons and feel freer in your relationships and with yourself. As an Emotionally Focused Therapist, I focus on how your emotions and past experiences shape your current communication.

With over 18 years of clinical experience, I specialize in the "heavy" work: complex trauma recovery, PTSD, and high-functioning anxiety. I specialize in working with veterans, first responders, and others with similar backgrounds navigating the long-term impact of trauma, chronic stress, and existing in survival mode. Therapy with me is real, direct, and grounded — a place to sort through what’s happened without having to perform, minimize, or explain away your experience. The goal is not to “fix” you, but to help you reconnect with yourself and live with more clarity, stability, and choice.

Are you filled with self-doubt and stress, going through your days exhausted and overwhelmed? Do you feel alone? Afraid? Lost? Empty? If you do you're in the right place. Many of these emotions are what categorize symptoms of depression, anxiety, ADHD, and PTSD. Imagine replacing self-criticism with self-trust, and doubt with clarity. That possibility is real — and it begins with choosing yourself. The time and energy you invest in this process are invaluable. Few pursuits offer more lasting meaning or impact than this kind of inner work. Imagine replacing self-criticism with self-trust, and doubt with clarity. You are worth it.

I provide specialized perinatal mental health counseling for women and mothers navigating postpartum challenges, birth trauma, pregnancy after loss, and grief. My approach is empathic, relational, and grounded in extensive clinical expertise. You don’t have to do this alone, and healing is possible with support.

Healing isn’t about being fixed, it’s about feeling understood and supported. I approach therapy as something we do together, with honesty, curiosity, and care. We’ll look at what’s underneath what you’re experiencing while building a space where you can show up as you are without judgment. Vulnerability is part of the process, and so is laughter, both matter here. I value authenticity, respect, and trust, and those values guide how I show up in our work together, while also helping you build insight, strengthen coping, and feel more grounded in your day to day life.

I'm a specialized therapist who works primarily with neurodivergence, specifically ADHD, OCD, autism & borderline spectrums, and chronic depression, anxiety, & bipolar disorders. I also have expertise in complex trauma issues, often stemming from narcissistic family systems or relationship abuse. Many of my clients possess an excellent or above-average capacity for self-reflection and introspection. However, they feel their heightened self-awareness can sometimes backfire, magnifying feelings of powerlessness and frustration when they find themselves stuck in repetitive patterns and unable to make desired changes in their behaviors.

I see you – a high-achieving woman everyone counts on, feeling like you must always be "on." It's exhausting, isn’t it? Behind the success and leadership, there’s a cloud of anxiety, self-doubt, and unspoken pain. Deep down, you know there’s more than white-knuckling through life. You crave lasting relief – so you can finally feel the type of quiet confidence that you project outwardly. You want to feel grounded, confident, and fully present, no matter the situation, or what life throws your way. By working together, you’ll cultivate powerful self-trust, leave insecurity in the dust, and become an unstoppable force for good.

You're the one who figured out how to keep going even when things didn't feel okay. Now, you're realizing that "getting through it" isn't the same as actually feeling better. My clients are often insightful, self-aware, and still feeling stuck...looping in anxiety, overthinking, or emotional shutdown. You may be ready for something deeper than coping skills that don't always stick. I help you get to the root of what's actually driving those patterns, so you can stop just managing and start feeling a little different.

I help people from all walks of life find lasting relief from the ache of anxiety, depression, and trauma. With me, you don’t have to censor your emotions or experiences because no topic is off limits. Clients often tell me they feel deeply seen, understood, and gently supported as we work toward healing the patterns that no longer serve them. If traditional talk therapy hasn’t helped, or has reached its limit, I offer Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) in collaboration with experienced medical staff. KAP can open new space for insight, healing, and meaningful change that once felt out of reach.

Welcome! I’m glad you’re here. I believe you found me for a reason. I also believe therapy is a collaborative process, one that shouldn’t drag on for years. My hope is that you’ll walk away with enough clarity, tools, and maybe even a few one-liners from me to navigate life without needing a standing weekly appointment. You are the expert in your life. I’m here to offer perspective, skills, and a space to sort through what’s working, what’s not, and what life might look like if you were brave enough to be unapologetically yourself.
