You're starting to see a pattern in your reactions, and it's not sitting right. Anger surges, sometimes before you can stop it. After, you're left replaying what happened, trying to understand why it felt so intense. At night, your mind goes back to moments you can't fully make sense of - experiences that still carry weight, even when you try to move past them. You know these reactions don't come out of nowhere. They're related to past pain, but you can't quite connect the dots. You're ready to face what's underneath, not just manage the surface, and finally understand why these patterns keep showing up in your life.

You’ve been managing a lot for a long time, but it’s starting to catch up with you. Stress, anger, family tension, or unresolved experiences keep showing up in ways that feel harder to control. You try to push through, but the same reactions keep repeating, leaving you frustrated and questioning why it’s so difficult to change. At night, your mind doesn’t shut off. Instead of resting, you replay conversations, worry about how you’re handling things, or feel misunderstood by the people around you. You want more than just getting by. You want to understand yourself, express what you feel, and handle life with confidence.

Let’s be real: adulting is hard. Figuring out how to build a life—navigating new jobs, getting enough sleep and exercise, living alone for the first time, dating (ugh), or trying to make real friendships—it can all feel like a lot.

I’m passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities.

When you've been through trauma, you eventually reach a point where the burden becomes too much to bear. The memories don't stay in the past - they show up in your body, your reactions, and the way you move through your day. You replay what happened, question yourself, and feel like something inside you has changed in ways you don't fully understand. At night, your mind keeps going, circling the same fears that you may never move on or feel like yourself again. Part of you feels stuck in survival mode, while another part quietly hopes to be healed and restores. That's why you're here: relief and a way forward that's truly you own.

I bring extensive experience from various settings, including treatment centers, community programs, group therapy, and correctional facilities, where I've had the privilege of working with adolescents, young adults, and adults.

I accept self-pay and am in network with Optum/UHC/UMR, Aetna, Ambetter, Mercy UMR, and Medicare Part B (not Medicare Advantage plans).
People tend to find me when they’re feeling anxious, disconnected, confused, reacting in ways they don’t understand or like, or are feeling “too much” or nothing at all. Many of my clients are undergoing life transitions of all kinds, experiencing loss, feeling stuck in patterns, and seeking deeper understanding and lasting change. I draw from my training and education in both biology and counseling to highlight the mind-body connection. This can be beneficial in working with somatic/bodily effects of trauma, physical symptoms and illnesses, and many of our other layered experiences that come with having bodies.

My ideal client is someone who feels overwhelmed, misunderstood, or unsure how to navigate life in a world that wasn’t built for their brain—or for their child’s. They may be autistic or neurodivergent and struggling with anxiety, burnout, relationships, self-esteem, or identity. They are seeking understanding, clarity, and practical tools rather than pressure to change who they are. Their goal is to feel validated, build confidence, strengthen relationships, and create a life that feels more manageable, meaningful, and authentic.
