You’ve carried the weight of trauma—whether it’s the kind that leaves deep scars from horrific experiences or the invisible wounds of growing up in a family shaped by addiction. The pain, the fear, the constant effort to hold it all together—it’s exhausting, and it’s not your fault. You deserve a space where you feel truly seen, where your story is honored without judgment, and where healing feels possible, even when it seems out of reach. I’m here to walk with you through the chaos, to help you find safety within yourself, and to uncover the strength you’ve always had, even when it feels buried.

In person or virtual sessions. Specializing in eating disorders, anxiety, and depression. I am also a Registered Dietitian (RD). It's my passion to help people gain control over and heal from disordered eating, anxiety, and depression so they can live their best life. We live in a society that dictates what size we should be, which drives us toward unhealthy habits in an effort to measure up. This can lead to disordered eating habits such as yo-yo dieting, binge eating, poor body image, and self-criticism, among others. I believe in focusing on the underlying causes of how food is being used to manage stress, emotions, and life.

Are you carrying a heavy heart, feeling lost, or struggling to find your direction? You may feel stuck in patterns that are not working, dissatisfied in your relationships or career, or overwhelmed by emotions that seem difficult to manage. At times, it can feel like you are doing your best just to get through the day, unsure of how to move forward. You are not alone in this. Many people reach a point where what once worked no longer does, and the need for change becomes clear, even if the path ahead feels uncertain.

Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, grief, or relationship struggles begin to weigh you down. You may be doing your best to keep things together, but inside you feel exhausted, uncertain, or discouraged. Perhaps you are carrying silent worries that others do not see, or you have tried to move forward but nothing seems to help for long. Whether you are a parent watching your child struggle, a teen navigating change, or an adult facing loss or transition, you want understanding, relief, and a sense of direction. You are longing for peace, clarity, and a way to feel like yourself again.

Overwhelmed During Pregnancy or Postpartum? You're not alone. We accept most major insurance plans, including Medicaid HMOs. Pregnancy and parenthood are often described as joyful, but they can feel overwhelming, isolating, and unexpectedly hard. You may feel anxious, irritable, disconnected, or unlike yourself, even when everything “looks fine” on the outside. You might be navigating intrusive thoughts, sleep disruption, relationship strain, or a birth experience that did not unfold as you hoped. You may also be grieving a miscarriage, stillbirth, fertility challenges, or another loss that feels invisible to others.
