Life can sometimes seem like just too much. Stressors like relationships, friendships, school, work, and family obligations can become too heavy to bear. Maybe there is a trauma you have carried for years that you still aren't quite sure how to handle. Maybe you are questioning aspects of your identity and you aren't sure where to turn to speak honestly about them. Or, maybe you just need someone to talk to who can help you process your daily life. That's where counseling can come in.

I offer both individual therapy and psychological assessment. Assessment can be used to gain diagnostic clarity, evaluate for concerns like ADHD or autism, screen for learning challenges, track changes in functioning due to head injury or dementia, and more. For assessment, I see clients 5 years and older. For individual therapy, I see clients age 15 and older. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and coping with life changes. I also worked in university counseling centers for 3 years and am very familiar with the unique experiences and challenges college students face.

Many of my clients say that they "know" in their head that everything is not their fault or that they are a good person, but still there is a doubt that feels unshakeable. When we go through painful experiences or relationships, it sometimes teaches us to believe something limiting, negative and UNTRUE about ourselves. I want to find out what those beliefs are and what happened to convince you of them. Let’s discover what you truly believe! Any expression of gender, spirituality or identity will be affirmed, honored and respected here. I offer the most gentle trauma therapy I can by centering your needs in every moment.
