At times we may feel lost or overwhelmed. We may have uncertainty when it comes to navigating challenges we face. We seek freedom from our struggles and more balance in our day-to-day lives. That is where therapy with me comes in to play. In my office, I believe that there is a place for every person to be who they are while learning ways to navigate the world around them. In my work with clients, we work as a team in order to build up healthy strategies to cope, explore deeper reasons behind our struggles, and heal from past hurts.

Hi there! Do you often find yourself shutting down emotionally rather than opening up, working hard to appear fine when you’re not? Do you want to learn how to tolerate distressing emotions and feel comfortable within your own mind? Are you a woman or young adult trying to navigate a heavy change? Reaching out for therapy is an act of hopefulness, but it can feel overwhelming and vulnerable too. I know how important it is to feel truly seen and supported as you are sharing your story. It takes courage and effort to begin working towards creating meaning and finding purpose, and I feel honored to meet you where you are at.

I have over two decades of experience working with individuals seeking to improve their emotional & spiritual health. During this time I have seen first hand how difficult it can be for individuals to admit that they are struggling with their thoughts and emotions and their overall emotional health. It is even more challenging to have the courage to seek out and ask for assistance and help. The good news I want to share is that when I've had the opportunity to work with someone asking for help, that individual is able to improve their mental health and grow to experience their thoughts and emotions with depth and positivity.

Are you the athlete who looks unstoppable on the surface but battles self-doubt when no one's watching? Maybe you're navigating a major transition—changing teams, retiring from sport, or figuring out who you are beyond your performance. You might be carrying the weight of being "the only one" in spaces where you don't see yourself reflected. You're tired of generic advice and need someone who understands the unique pressures of competition, perfectionism, and proving yourself in environments that weren't built for you. You want a therapist who won't minimize your experience or tell you to "just think positive". I actually get it.

You are worthy of a peaceful, fulfilling, meaningful life. If you're struggling with emotional pain, insecurities, past trauma, or intrusive thoughts, you're not alone. You may find that the ways you have learned to handle these challenges are not moving your life in the direction you want. People-pleasing, perfectionism, and self-sabotaging are among many ways people cope. If you want to make a change, but don’t know how, therapy can help. You deserve to be seen and understood, and you don’t have to do this alone.

Most people who reach out to me aren't in a crisis — they're just tired of feeling stuck. Maybe anxiety has been a background hum for so long it's started to feel normal. Maybe you had a baby and something shifted that you can't quite name. Maybe ADHD has you perpetually one step behind, or there's trauma you've been quietly working around for years. Whatever brought you here, you don't need to have it figured out before we start. I've been doing this for 17 years, and that's always been true: you can show up exactly as you are.
