I practice from a humanistic and existential lens with the ultimate goal of helping my clients live more authentically, finding comfort in discomfort and accepting their whole selves.
Life can be difficult and overwhelming, especially when we feel most alone. Counseling provides a collaborative space to meaningfully explore our thoughts, feelings, and experiences with another person.

I work from a skills based perspective using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, Gestalt and Existential Therapy.
I believe in supporting my clients through all of life’s real and perceived challenges. Everyone needs someone to talk to- someone to help process through emotions, thoughts, experiences and events. A life worth living looks different from one person to the next and I enjoy helping people navigate this discovery. I help clients look at where they are, where they truly desire to be, and help search their soul to determine what they are willing to do to achieve their life worth living.

Life is hard and everyone faces significant struggles at times. Oftentimes asking for help can make you feel weak or ashamed, which makes the problems seem even more difficult to bear. We were not meant to face these things alone. Counseling is for those who want to partner with someone to take a compassionate and honest look at their lives, face their problems, and find a path forward.

I work with clients struggling with a variety of issues, including Anxiety/Panic, ADHD, Depression, Grief, Life Transitions, Chronic Pain, Mood Disturbance, Self-Care, and many more. However, I am currently only accepting adults with ADHD or suspected ADHD as new clients. Therapy tends to work best when a client provides as much information as possible, is open and honest, and puts in the effort and work necessary to improve upon their life.

Even in the most difficult or overwhelming circumstances, we can find meaningful ways to move forward. The pressure from stress, anxiety, and trauma can show up in a person's mind, relationships, body, or other important areas of life. But oftentimes, these experiences reveal what in our lives might need attention.

I am flexible to accommodate most schedules. I believe everyone can benefit from therapy; at its core, therapy is about building a relationship in which we feel safe to embrace and become our authentic selves. I enjoy working with people to explore life experiences and identify past trauma that may be preventing them from living their best life. I am passionate about issues surrounding individual freedoms, specifically relating to gender/sexuality. As a queer professional, I enjoy working with clients who identify as LGBTQIA+ and/or who practice nontraditional relationships, including polyamory and kink.

During times of stress and uncertainty, it may be difficult to get through the day, go to work, or be present with your loved ones. On top of that, these uncertain times can trigger anxiety, overwhelming emotions, and cause us to feel "stuck". Therapy provides an opportunity to find hope for the future, find joy and happiness, stability, and a sense of meaning or purpose in a rapidly changing world. I believe that everyone deserves a nonjudgmental, compassionate, and empathetic therapeutic experience.

How does existential therapy work?
Existential therapy focuses on a patient’s inner experiences. The therapist tries to help the individual comprehend and alleviate symptoms by exploring their interior life. By confronting negative disquiet and emotions, the individual will hopefully become more open to finding meaning and purpose. This therapy can be administered to individuals or groups.
Is existential therapy evidence-based?
Existential therapy is an evidence-based practice. Research has determined that existential therapy can lead to significant improvement in the mental health of patients, and for some people it can be just as effective as cognitive behavioral therapy. The benefits of existential therapy are enduring, even long after treatment has ended.
How long does existential therapy last?
The goal of existential therapy is to understand a person’s internal experiences, which may sound like a lengthy process, but it does not have to be so in-depth. However, sessions are not short-term, and therapy can continue for months or up to a year. And because patients learn the theory behind existential therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have been completed.
Is existential therapy effective?
According to research, many patients find success with existential therapy. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving feelings of isolation, feelings of purposelessness, as well as conditions such as anxiety and depression. Improvements in problem areas can persist even after the end of existential therapy, as individuals can continue working on themselves by using the tools they’ve developed during treatment.
