You are the expert on your life and your own experiences. Together, we will create space for you to heal. Although at times you may feel broken, you aren’t in need of fixing; you are navigating systems that are unsatisfactory, which can leave anyone feeling fragmented. Support is the driving factor for change, and I aim to support you through whatever changes present themselves on your path to feeling whole. My clients begin to feel a sense of wholeness that comes from accepting their thoughts and feelings as valid parts of a human experience. These moments of connection in therapy extend into relationships with others and yourself.

Life can be full of daily stressors, unforeseen obstacles, challenging relationships, and lingering trauma. Therapy can help untangle some of these experiences and help people grow into a healthier version of themselves. Whether you're focused on a new issue, old wounds, or seeking a place to simply learn more about yourself - talking through it can be immensely helpful. My approach to therapy is wholistic and eclectic; viewing everyone I work with as a complex person who could benefit from a mix of different therapy modalities.

I specialize in treating anxiety and fostering resilience. My clients often say they want to live with more ease, confidence, and compassion - and less reactivity, overwhelm, and worry. They are ready and eager to go through what is hard so they can get to the what is good - in themselves, others, and the world. My clients want to be more aware and live wholeheartedly. If you are ready to courageously uncover and recover, then welcome!

You deserve to heal. You deserve to be supported, respected, and seen for all you have been, all you will be, and all you are in this moment. I trust you to be the expert on yourself and your own experiences within the body, identities, and relationships that inform your ways of knowing yourself and your world. Our work together will not focus on identifying what’s “wrong” with you, and won’t aim to “fix” you. Together, we will explore areas of distress, discomfort, or questioning through a systemic lens. I will support your intentions toward transformative change and growth from perspectives that matter to you.
