It is important to find the right therapist that you can connect with and establish a trusting relationship. I believe that when people come to therapy, they allow themselves opportunities for self-exploration and growth. It is my goal to create a safe space where you can make positive changes to live a more fulfilling life. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Addiction Treatment Therapist who has been practicing for over 6 years.

Are you or someone in your family experiencing conflict and stress in their everyday life? As a parent, do you often find yourself not knowing what to say or how to respond? If this sounds like you or your family, you are not alone. For the past 25 years I have been providing therapy to children, adolescents, adults and families. Many of the clients I see have a history of trauma and struggle with anxiety, fluctuating moods, issues related to self-esteem, challenging behaviors and complications in relationships.

Existing in an ever-changing world can come with existential pondering that make daily living feel unmanageable at times. In my counseling practice, I seek to walk alongside you on your journey toward growth and healing. Whether it is uncovering unhelpful narratives that are no longer serving you, or grappling with questions of identity and worldview, I’m prepared to meet you where you are. I am interested in helping you discover a daily existence that works for you while providing compassion and care.

Have you always felt different from others, but weren’t exactly sure why? The societal pressure to hide your true self can feel so pervasive that the phrase “just be yourself!” has lost most significance. It can be incredibly disheartening to feel as if something is “wrong” with you for feeling emotions intensely. We all have a meaningful story to tell, and I believe in fostering a warm, affirming, and non-judgmental environment for people to discover themselves and question what it means to be human. I love helping others find their voice, explore their identity, unpack shame, and manage the overwhelm of life.

You're not crazy, broken, or failing. You're human! As a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate, my goal is to create a supportive and nonjudgmental space where you can feel empowered to explore and nurture your individual path. Whether you’re navigating challenges or seeking change, I’m here to help you every step of the way. When I’m not working with clients, you'll find me wrangling my three dogs, offering motivational speeches to my plants, and drinking way too much coffee with a generous amount of creamer.

Are your past experiences or current struggles leading you to lash out, withdraw, make unwise decisions, or disrupt your relationships? Maybe it feels like no matter what you try, you just can't get it right. Life has a (not so funny) way of bringing difficulties that leave us wounded and disconnected. As our pain deepens, we develop coping strategies to numb and protect ourselves. These painful experiences and defense patterns can have long-lasting detrimental effects that deprive us of joy and meaning. However, although painful, these places of darkness can be catalysts to rewrite our story and move us towards healing.

Jungian analysis is a rich and different psychological process. Rather than trying to fix our flaws or make ourselves “better,” we engage with those uncomfortable, unknown, and sometimes ugly parts of our psyches, knowing these are the places where we find soul. Through working with dreams and other imaginal material, we find ourselves moving toward an inner integration. Every psyche is different, and I love getting to know the worlds within my patients. Each person’s dream-maker has a genius, communicating what is needed in a profoundly personal way, making every analysis as different as the dreamers themselves.
