You made it! You may not feel like you’re making it right now-and that’s totally okay. However, take a moment to reflect that you’ve made it to THIS moment in search for hope, understanding, growth, and relief. You’ve already made it through frustration (scrolling through hundreds of strangers faces to find a therapist), hopelessness, sadness, anxiety, trauma, and much more. I want to walk beside you through the difficult feelings you’ve been experiencing to help you create a life that you don’t just make it through, but actually ENJOY!

It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.

If it is struggling with anxiety from the moment you wake up until the second you are finally able to fall asleep or feeling stuck in a relationship that you once thought gave you everything you wanted.

Note: (I am currently offering a weekly Mental Health Wellness virtual therapy group. Contact for more info!) Throughout my career I have focused on working with clients from a trauma-informed perspective, helping clients simultaneously work toward the seemingly opposite goals of acceptance of what is and changing what is possible. I prioritize meeting clients where they are, creating a space that enhances their ability to experience and process emotions, and offering skills to create positive change in their lives that are consistent with their own goals and values, all while building a strong therapy relationship.

My goal is to help individuals develop skills to increase control over their own mental and physical health. I provide a combination of Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Biofeedback Therapy to treat a broad range of psychological and physical challenges in an atmosphere that is friendly and efficient.

Are you struggling to cope with difficult emotions? Whether you're dealing with mental health issues or life changes, I am here to help. Finding a therapist who is a good fit is a bit like making a friend. So here’s some information about my therapy style: it is down-to-earth, empathetic, and honest. For me, it is important to create a non-judgmental and supportive environment where clients can process emotions, problem-solve, and learn new skills. As an intersectional feminist, I strive to make my therapy space safe and welcoming for the LGBTQ+ community, people of color, neurodivergent individuals, and other marginalized groups.

I provide therapy to adolescents and adults, using a client-centered, eclectic approach tailored to the unique needs of each client. My preferred treatment approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy, supportive therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy. I believe that change happens when people are given the guidance they need to draw on their own strengths and realize their potential to live a fulfilling, happy life. My areas of expertise include: anxiety, depression, teens with self-injurious behaviors/behavior issues, phase of life changes and life stresses.

I am deeply committed to supporting young girls/boys in the late teens and women/men in early adulthood to adulthood who are experiencing intense emotions, depression, low self-worth, anxiety, body image issues, and have a desire for more peace and wellness in their lives. I am passionate about working with clients facing overwhelming life situations and traumatic pasts including domestic violence, childhood physical/emotional abuse and sexual abuse/assault.

I enjoy assisting clients who are struggling with life transitions, low self-esteem, or developing healthy relationships. As a result they may be experiencing anxiety, depression, or substance use issues. They are motivated and wanting to improve their mood and live a healthier and more fulfilling life. They are tired of feeling stuck and engaging in unhealthy and unhelpful habits.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by past experiences that continue to haunt you, affecting your daily life and relationships? Maybe you've tried talk therapy before, but it just didn't seem to get to the heart of what you're going through, and didn’t get to the root of the problems? You're seeking relief, understanding, and a way to break free from the patterns that hold you back. You want to reclaim control over your emotions, find inner peace, and build a life filled with meaning and fulfillment.
