You've worked hard to get where you are, but life is still filled with uncertainty. As an experienced therapist, I've worked with college students navigating life transitions, complex trauma survivors who feel disconnected from the people around them, and high-performing professionals struggling to balance the demands of work and home. I am especially passionate about helping clients with trauma histories and neurodivergence make sense of historical struggles through a non-judgmental, self-compassionate lens. I meet with and help empower men, women, and non-binary adults through private telehealth sessions.
You don't have to be alone with your anxious thoughts, low motivation, and sense of powerlessness trying to exist in an overwhelming world. We'll work together using a combination of evidence-based practices to reduce or eliminate your current symptoms, then explore new ways to navigate life's difficulties, allowing you to live a full, meaningful life.
You are a unique individual and therapy should be tailored to best support you. My approach is always rooted in empathy, a desire to fully understand your lived experience, and a belief that a bit of humor can be therapeutic in itself. I encourage you to reach out to me via email or phone (texts are more than welcome, too!) to see if we're a good fit!

During our initial sessions, my top priority is to create a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship as we explore your history and current symptoms. We will work toward treatment goals that are built around understanding the impact of your past experiences, current obstacles, and hopes for the future (even if you don't know what those are yet!).

First, we will use evidenced-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to strengthen coping skills for the symptoms you most wish to address. Once these symptoms feel more manageable, we can then use other empirical therapies like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to empower you to develop a deeper understanding of yourself and overcome future obstacles.
