Emotionally intense personalities, deep thinkers, and busy minds with sensitive hearts are welcome here. You're probably tired of people telling you that you're "too much": too needy, too talkative, too picky, too clingy, or (gulp!) too sensitive! Meanwhile, you're almost constantly feeling not good enough inside: like a fraud, a failure, and falling short of finding the love, the career, the friends, the life you've aimed for. You've possibly wondered if you have chronic depression, anxiety, or adult ADHD. Anxiety, aloneness, existential angst, indecisiveness, and insecurity can leave you in an emotional tailspin.

We all face moments (or months!) that test our foundations. At times, we encounter situations that are confusing, overwhelming, disappointing, frustrating, or painful. We find ourselves struggling. But there's good news: we don't have to navigate these situations alone. I am a therapist who will join you on the journey. You and I will work closely together to form a comfortable and collaborative therapeutic relationship in which exploration, learning, and healing can occur.

My approach is primarily humanistic and grounded in Gestalt Therapy, but I am also trained in Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP) for anxiety/OCD.
I see counseling as a laboratory in the form of a relationship. We typically enter into this relational lab when we desire growth and change, and it gives us a place to experiment and practice. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor, I work in a holistic and culturally responsive way with adults, couples, and families of diverse identities. I particularly enjoy working with people of color and men.
Clients appreciate the ways I make unexpected connections, challenge them while still being supportive, operate like a subtle guiding hand, and both model and create structure that they can build on.

If you are a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) who is a high-achiever, I can help you reduce anxiety and create healthy relationships. Empathy pulls HSPs to rescue lost kittens and fight for the underdog. Unfortunately, your kindness is often taken advantage of, and sometimes abused. Intense emotions coupled with sensitivity to the environment make relaxation challenging. Together, we will navigate through relationships, anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, PTSD, and grief with a compassionate approach. You'll learn practical tools to reduce emotional distress, all while cultivating a strong sense of Self. All sessions are held on Zoom.

We all suffer from a vivid sense of memory and a fantastic sense of imagination. You cannot suffer from the past because it no longer exists. You're suffering from your memory. As for the future, well it hasn't happened yet. If you ask for no suffering, you're asking for an evolutionary downgrade. Consequently, you're removing possibilities & experience. If you become hyperaware of your memory & imagination, & learn to manage the two adaptively, there you will find solace.

Feeling so checked out in the relationship. Drowning in conflict. Detaching from your spouse. Feeling scared, lonely, and overwhelmed. Can your relationship ever be fixed? It’s just not working. What you want is clear and sounds so simple: you crave connection and intimacy. You want to feel loved, understood, and cherished. If family drama is also part of the picture, it can be particularly hard to know what to do to create peace. How can you possibly connect when your family “talks” turn into taking things personally, getting defensive, or just checking out entirely? You just want peace and connection.
