I provide online therapy for adults/couples dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and sexual wellness. My clients tend to be thoughtful, intelligent, and often use humor to cope - even with heavy topics like sex and trauma. They are often struggling in relationships, feeling depressed or anxious, or are seeking more understanding of themselves. Outwardly they function well, but inside they feel broken, ashamed, or ‘too much’ in relationships. They want a more satisfying, playful sex life but feel scared, shut down, or guilty. They’re willing to reflect, try homework, and experiment between sessions.

My practice focuses on children, adolescents, women and families. Some deal with anxiety or social difficulties; some deal with trauma and depression. Some are grieving. Some are navigating life changes; others are navigating difficult environments, such as home or school. Some are finding out who they are and embracing their passions, while navigating their environments where they may not be fully accepted yet. This may be due to learning or neurological differences, circumstances of adoption, divorce and or/blended families, or gender or sexual identities. Sometimes work is done individually, sometimes in family groupings.

Many of us struggle with trauma, relationships and difficult life transitions that lead to depression, anxiety, stress, anger, confusion, frustration and fear. You might dance in and out of self-abandonment, wanting to feel worthy, confident, productive and loved, yet continue to feel stuck, alone and perhaps a little lost. Without clarity, it can feel hard to know how to move forward, especially if there’s a relentless inner critic at play, or if insecure attachment, codependency or self-sabotage are part of your story. However, through mindful exploration, you can broaden perspective and engage in a journey of healing and growth.

Many clients reach out when they are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to manage what they are going through. This can include anxiety, emotional dysregulation, identity questions, or difficulty navigating life changes. I support clients in building tools to manage emotions, feel more grounded, and deepen their understanding of themselves. I use mindfulness, DBT, and ACT skills in my work, and I am currently training in EMDR. I am also attuned in Level 1 Reiki, which I may integrate as a grounding and mindfulness-based practice in session when it feels helpful.
