We all experience struggles from time to time that may leave us feeling overwhelmed, or numb and disconnected. Whether you are recovering from trauma, experiencing relationship difficulties, seeking insight, or needing a safe space to work through difficult emotions- therapy can help you forge a new way forward while collaborating with a caring clinician. Although starting therapy can feel a bit scary, it is a worthy process.

Hey, life can be tough. Some events are out of our control and sometimes we tend to get in our own way. Often negative events in our childhood shape our adult responses leading to anxiety, depression, avoidance, and panic. Whatever the experience you’re here because you’re ready to overcome it. As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating.

Are you struggling with relentless anxious energy? Anxiety can come from a number of different experiences and causes. I offer a therapeutic space where my clients can be authentic and their experiences can be understood. I help my clients manage their anxiety, stress, grief/loss, and other related issues. I like to work collaboratively with my clients to empower them to improve their overall well-being. I help treat clients from a holistic perspective. I focus on mind, body, and spirit. Through my counseling style, my clients get to process their struggles and find peace and balance, again.

My work begins with a very person-centered approach, recognizing my role as one to listen and empower a client as they create the life they want to live. I often incorporate techniques from solution-focused, narrative, cognitive behavioral, and dialectical behavioral approaches. After 10 years in the fitness/wellness industry, I’ve worked with those struggling with unhealthy relationships with food and their bodies. Working with these clients often utilizes elements of mindfulness and self-compassion toward a life of more self-love.

Focus: college students and professionals struggling with depression, anxiety, and/or relationship issues. I'm trained in evidence-based therapies, such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which concludes that through mindful meditation, we can defuse ourselves from our thoughts and emotions, allowing us to commit to value-congruent actions in a way that brings us life purpose. I am also passionate about working with couples, helping them navigate through their struggles at any point in their relationship or deal with sensitive issues. Lastly, I'm a sex-positive Sex Therapist who welcomes individuals to explore their sexual issues in a safe and non-judgmental setting.

I'm drawn to those who've faced life's unfair blows, carrying the weight of trauma. It's not about fixing; they're not broken. Their needs center around shedding the burden of feeling defective due to past experiences. Together, we navigate their history, aiming not to erase but to transform. The goal is a fresh perspective, a chance to unshackle from the past, and embrace a new lease on life—a journey filled with compassion, understanding, and authentic growth.

Reaching out for help can feel intimidating. You may find yourself struggling to the point of being overwhelmed. You may feel unsatisfied with your relationships, dealing with depression or anxiety, or processing loss or trauma. You may be pregnant or postpartum and feel the need to address some of these issues that you have not tended to yet. Embarking on the path of therapy is a courageous step towards personal growth and well-being and know that you are not alone. It would be my privilege to collaborate with you in your healing journey and find ways to make it through the challenges you are facing.
