Sometimes, life looks fine on the outside, but inside, something feels missing. You may struggle with self-worth, anxiety, perfectionism, or feeling stuck in your career or uncertain about your direction. You might be a high achiever who never feels good enough, a neurodivergent adult who has spent years trying to fit in, or just ready for change. I work with adults and couples navigating these challenges, including ADHD, autism, and relationship difficulties. As a former nurse, I understand the pressures of high-responsibility careers. Together, we'll explore what's keeping you stuck and create space for self-acceptance and change.
I often use Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help individuals understand their inner world with curiosity and compassion. Having completed Level 2 IFS training, I believe we all have an innate capacity for healing. For couples, I blend IFS with Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to foster deeper understanding, emotional safety, and connection.
You don't have to have it all figured out to begin therapy. I believe we each have the inner wisdom and capacity to heal, even when we feel stuck or disconnected. My goal is to offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can show up as you are, explore what's holding you back, and build self-compassion and confidence to create meaningful change.

I'm a Level 2 trained Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist. IFS, sometimes referred to as "parts" work, is a powerful model that will allow you to befriend all parts of you and better understand the function and purpose of your pain, anxiety, and inner conflicts. Regulating the nervous system through mindfulness techniques combined with parts work allows for great transformation and healing
