You may look like you’re holding everything together on the outside, but inside you feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling weighed down by depression, anxiety or relationship stress and unsure how to move forward. Therapy can help you make sense of what’s happening and begin moving toward relief. For some, that means feeling like themselves again. For others, it can feel like finally seeing the sun after a long stretch of gray. I specialize in working with adults navigating depression, burnout, chronic stress, and relationship challenges who want both practical tools and deeper insight.

Welcome! If overwhelming emotions, panic attacks, or trauma feel like they’re holding your true self hostage, I’m glad you’re here. I help individuals decode the complexities of their mental health and personality—not just to manage symptoms, but to clear the path toward actually enjoying life again. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space for those navigating high anxiety, panic, health concerns, and the weight of trauma (whether past or present). Together, we’ll move beyond coping and toward a version of life that feels lighter and more authentic. I typically return emails & voicemails within 1–2 business days, Mon-Thu.

You may have imagined this season of life would feel more joyful, more connected, or at least more manageable. But instead, you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure of yourself. Maybe you’re navigating the rollercoaster of pregnancy or postpartum, and everything feels harder than you expected. Maybe you're struggling to feel bonded with your baby, or you find yourself losing your temper more than you’d like. Perhaps something unexpected or frightening happened—during birth, in your relationship, or in your own past—and now it’s getting in the way of feeling present with your child or confident in your parenting.

I also enjoy working with depression, anxiety disorders, life changes and stages, mood disorders, and the LGBTQ population.
As an EMDR-trained clinician, I hold a deep passion for helping others foster resilience and reprocess past experiences that bring disruption to their daily lives. What I like to call “the gray area” is my favorite place to engage in meaningful work – a place where there are no “shoulds” and we allow the brain to do whatever it needs.
