Do relationships feel more challenging than they should? Do you feel stuck, isolated, and searching for meaning? It's normal to use patterned behaviors to self-soothe, and these can be effective—but they can also interfere with your life. I understand trauma is complex, and personal, and can lead to feeling out of control, dysregulated, and challenged in relationships. Healing and growth is possible. Our therapeutic alliance is the most important determinant of success for you. I specialize in Trauma, Addiction, & Attachment therapy, using a wide range of therapies including Somatic, ACT, IFS, and DBT, combined with talk therapy.

We'll move at your pace and comfort. I’m an eclectic therapist trained in CBT, DBT, and SFBT, using them as needed. Pain and wounds can heal with treatment. I provide a safe place to walk the path to healing together. I have worked in a variety of settings with the bulk of my experience assisting individuals with trauma, depression, anxiety, and addiction.

As a practitioner, the most important thing I can bring to a therapeutic relationship is authenticity. Please reach out to me to schedule a free consultation. There is no problem too big or small. Starting therapy is an investment in your health, wellbeing, and future. I am here to support you.

I work with clients who may be struggling with addiction or trauma from a root perspective. I believe addiction, anxiety, and self-esteem challenges represent symptoms of issues in one's life we can explore and uncover. Often, addiction and anxiety start as coping skills, and are even useful. My goal is to explore challenging issues with love and non-judgement.
