You may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected—unsure how much of yourself feels safe to show. You might be navigating identity, addiction, or the weight of past experiences while trying to make sense of who you are and what you want. You’re looking for a space where you can be honest without judgment, understand patterns that no longer serve you, and feel more grounded, free, and aligned in your life and relationships.
I offer a trauma-informed, relational space where you can show up as you are. I specialize in working with teens, LGBTQ+ clients, and addiction, using EMDR, parts work, and talk therapy in a way that fits you—not a formula. Together, we’ll build insight, safety, and lasting change at your pace.
Reaching out for therapy can feel intimidating, especially if you’re unsure where to start or worried about being misunderstood. You don’t have to have it all figured out to begin. If you’re looking for a therapist who values honesty, connection, and meeting you where you are, I’d welcome the chance to support you.

I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. You're a unique individual, and your treatment should reflect that. I draw upon a few different modalities to create a space where you don't just fit - you belong.
