You feel stuck. On the outside, it looks like you’re doing fine, but inside you’re carrying fear, shame, and sadness that never really quiet down. You’re functioning, getting through the days, yet you’re exhausted by the constant pressure to get things “right.” What if you had a safe place to say the things you don’t usually say out loud, to share your concerns, ideas, and even your hopes without having to perform? And when you’re ready to move toward change, what would it be like to have someone walking alongside you as you take those steps? At the core, you want to believe that you matter, that it’s possible to feel grounded.
It’s important to be able to take a break and ask yourself, “how am I doing?” Therapy is not only for folks who struggle with mental illness; it’s a fabulous place for navigating fulfillment in life and relationships, self-discovery, and self-care. Whether you want to address a concern or want to invest in yourself/your relationship, therapy is that place.
I offer a safe and orientation-affirming space to do the courageous work of personal growth. Using a non judgmental approach and evidence-based practices, I hope to support, encourage, educate, and empower you. I'll walk beside you to help strengthen awareness and increase personal and professional growth. Reach out to begin this journey today.

These are the treatment types I use, and this is what your experience will be like: I integrate sex therapy and sensate-focused methods to deepen intimacy. We'll employ CBT and DBT skills to reframe thoughts and regulate emotions. Solution-focused care sets clear, achievable goals, and mindfulness fosters present-moment awareness and self-compassion.
