If you’ve been carrying too much for too long, you’re not weak — you’re tired. Many of the people who need therapy are competent, capable adults who function well on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, or emotionally exhausted on the inside. Therapy doesn’t have to feel cold or clinical. Healing can be serious work — and still include moments of relief, perspective, and even humor. Sometimes a well-timed laugh is part of how the nervous system resets. Growth happens in safe spaces.
My approach is grounded in Person-Centered Therapy, which means you are not a problem to be fixed. You are a person to be understood. By offering a nonjudgmental, steady presence: we work together to help you explore patterns, emotions, and experiences at your pace.
I specialize in trauma, high-conflict relational stress, anxiety, and individuals navigating complex family systems. My goal is not just symptom relief, it’s helping you feel more grounded, more empowered, and more like yourself again. Therapy with me is collaborative, direct, and compassionate.

I often use EMDR in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With EMDR, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, we'll push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
