Many people reach out for therapy feeling exhausted by addiction, trauma, grief, or relationship pain—and unsure where to begin. You deserve a space where your story is met with compassion, honesty, and real support. My work is rooted in helping people heal from wounds created in relationships, rebuild trust in themselves and others, and reconnect with a sense of purpose. Whether you’re navigating betrayal, shame, emotional disconnection, or the weight of past experiences, we’ll work together to create meaningful, lasting change in a supportive and connected environment.
My approach is person-centered, attachment-focused, and grounded in the belief that healing happens through safe relationships. I use motivational interviewing to make our work together precise and effective, while drawing from EMDR, EFT, NARM, Psychodrama, and 12-step recovery principles. My experience includes trauma, addiction, military, pilots, couples.
In our first session, I want to understand your story, what you’ve experienced, what led you here, and what you need from therapy moving forward. Together, we’ll discuss your goals, what support looks like for you, how often we’ll meet, and the connections and resources that can help you feel supported between sessions.
