What stories are you telling yourself about who you are, how you got here, or what comes next? So much of who we are is made up of the world we live in, with all of its influences, mirrors, and connections. Maybe you're looking for someone to help unhook you from those unhelpful stories, or maybe you're in need of space to explore new ideas. Whatever the case, I'm glad you're here.

I enjoy working with individuals that are ready to do something different. Often a person gets stuck in feeling the insanity of doing the same thing over and over again waiting for things to change. Only by making a change in your behavior can you expect a different outcome, some people need support to make a change that is lasting.

My specialty is working with individuals who have experienced severe or complex trauma, and I understand that trauma rarely travels alone. It often brings along struggles like eating disorders, self-injury, and mood disorders, which can make daily life feel overwhelming. Therapy is not a single player game with a strict list of rules, it will look different from person to person. I view it as a collaborative journey—one where we work together to uncover and overcome the roadblocks to living life authentically.

I have over 16 years of combined experience helping adults and teens in crisis specific to substance use and mental health.
I find that it can be challenging, trying to figure out where you are presently and where you are trying to go. While navigating current life experiences, the challenges can cause frustration, with a need to seek freedom, sometimes choosing the unhealthy ways to cope. Sometimes we need a space and a support person that can help us navigate through these challenges and find healthy ways to cope while unpacking the known and unknown trauma that exists. Being able to have a safe space and a support, not only empowers us, but holds us accountable to those things that we set out to do and reminding us that we are not alone.
