Hi there! I’m a trauma-informed therapist who creates a warm, relaxed, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel comfortable being yourself. I support teens/adults working through anxiety, depression, ADHD struggles, trauma, eating concerns, and life transitions. I specialize in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), attachment-based work, and Brainspotting to help you navigate the tough stuff and grow. I believe therapy can be both meaningful and human, with room for honesty, humor, and real connection along the way. If you’re looking for a therapist who meets you where you are and cares deeply, I’d love to meet you!
I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, disordered eating, mood-related struggles, and major life transitions, as well as relationship stress, identity and LGBTQ+ related concerns, grief and loss, and challenges with balance, motivation, and self-understanding.
Whether you’re navigating trauma, ADHD, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or just feeling a bit lost, I offer a space where you can slow down, feel understood, and not have to carry everything on your own!
