Are you striving to find satisfaction with your work, life or relationships?
I primarily take a narrative approach to counseling. Narrative therapy begins with the premise that you are not the problem; the problem is the problem. The way we see ourselves can be defined by the language that we use. I see my role as a co-author, helping you develop an alternate personal history so that you may move forward with courage and confidence.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family.
Feeling overwhelmed, lost, or carrying pain you can’t seem to shake? Maybe you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or just trying to hold everything together while feeling misunderstood. If you’re neurodivergent, or come from a multicultural background, finding the right support can feel even harder. You’re not broken, you’re trying to make sense of experiences that deserve care, clarity, and real understanding. You deserve support that truly sees you.

With a special focus on couples and family counseling, I help my clients improve communication and mutual understanding, maximize intimacy and connection, eliminate relationship-defeating interaction cycles and behavior patterns, and rebuild marriages and relationships that encourage lasting positive change.
Everyone wants to live feeling fulfilled and happy; that is a universal truth deeply rooted in our human nature. While we all share that truth, figuring out exactly what makes us feel fulfilled and happy isn’t always easy. Sometimes we find ourselves feeling just a little bit off. Other times we find ourselves completely lost, deeply unhappy, and consistently unfulfilled. Whatever the case may be, experiencing meaningful and lasting positive change is entirely possible - and that is exactly what I help my clients achieve in the warmest, non-judgmental, and productive atmosphere possible.

I’m a licensed psychologist with a Ph.D. in clinical psychology, and I specialize in working with adults navigating medical complexities, loss of identity, and major life transitions.

I work alongside clients using thoughtful, personalized approaches to ease symptoms, strengthen relationships, manage triggers, increase stress management, and support healing, growth, and authentic living.
Something feels off. Your mind won’t slow down, sleep is inconsistent, and stress feels constant. It’s hard to focus, relax, or feel like yourself. You may notice changes in appetite, motivation, or energy, and you might be coping in ways you want to stop like smoking or other habits that no longer serve you. For athletes, performers, and professionals, stress can also show up as declining performance when you know you're capable of more. You don’t have to figure this out alone. I work with adults, teens, athletes, and professionals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, emotional overwhelm, and habits they want to change.

I believe that sustained well being is an ongoing, living, breathing process and is achieved through a consistent willingness to be open, curious and creative with your therapeutic care. There is no one direct route to healing, but it often includes attention to the whole person— mind, body and soul. ​ I am here to support your growth path with the help of evidenced-based methodologies, alternative therapies, and a willingness to go beneath symptomatology to address the root causes of a problem.
