My goal as your therapist is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment. I believe that healing begins when we feel safe enough to be ourselves, to be honest about our struggles & to know we’re not alone in them. I will meet you where you are and together, we’ll work to untangle the barriers that keep you stuck-whether that’s managing anxiety or depression, navigating substance use, healing from past trauma, or understanding patterns in relationships. I’ll bring curiosity, compassion, and evidence-based strategies tailored to you. My approach is collaborative and flexible.

Life is challenging, and there is no “one-size-fits-all” manual to guide us through the storms we face. These experiences can leave us feeling helpless, alone, overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or uncertain about how to move forward. Therapy offers a space to explore, understand, and work through these challenges. Through a collaborative process, we can identify barriers, build insight, and help you move toward your goals. I am a licensed mental health counselor and certified alcohol and drug counselor with experience supporting individuals across a wide range of mental health concerns.

“Before you assist others, put your oxygen mask on first." Prioritizing your wellness is essential. Perhaps you feel pulled in a million directions or you have suffered a loss. Perhaps you are stuck in an unhealthy relationship or you constantly compare yourself to others. Breaking unhealthy cycles of thought can be life-changing.

Life is complicated. And our experiences (both good and difficult) impact who each of us are. I view therapy as a tool to help us reconcile all of these experiences to become who we want to be. Individually we have the choice to define who we are. We can not change our past, while we can help our minds to make sense of the many complications of life. My job is to help my clients find peace and relief from life's challenges. Help is available for a wide spectrum of conditions – for adolescents and adults.

“Survival is insufficient” is my favorite quote, which comes from Emily St. John Mandel's book Station Eleven. I want to help identify and embrace how your strengths make you unique. Then you can not only survive but also fully engage in your life. I identify as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and I understand, personally and professionally, how difficult it can be to feel like you fit. My personal experiences as someone who has often felt "different" are a part of what led me into this field, and my education and training in evidence-based practice helps me to help you feel welcomed, affirmed, and capable of overcoming barriers.

Waitlist for new clients
Do you feel disconnected from yourself and unsure of what you truly want or need? Are you trying to balance school, work, relationships, and rest, yet still feel overwhelmed, anxious, or not “good enough”? You might find yourself overthinking, struggling to set boundaries, or constantly putting others first while your needs go unmet. If this is you, it sounds like you are ready to understand the root of your struggles. You long for a gentler, more compassionate relationship with yourself. Most of all, you want to be a more aligned, authentic, and empowered version of you.

I help men, women, and couples who feel stuck in patterns that keep them from living the kind of lives they want. In our work together, we’ll focus on learning how to handle tough thoughts and emotions in a new way, so they have less control, and on moving toward what really matters to you. I truly believe change is possible, and my goal is to support you in reaching yours. Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating or overly serious all the time; I like to keep things real and bring in humor when it helps. I’m passionate about helping you show up as your authentic self and living the life you want.

I have immediate openings! The alarm goes off. Another day. You drag yourself through classes, work, and obligations, running on caffeine, an empty stomach, and a brain that feels stuck in a fog. You're surviving, but it doesn't feel like living. If any of this feels familiar, you're in the right place. Your pain isn't a defect. It's a human response to being alive in a world that's genuinely hard and doesn't come with a roadmap. Together, we'll make sense of where you are and where you want to go. I'll support you, challenge you, and help you move toward a life you love living. Because you deserve a life that's yours.
