Many people consider therapy because some part of life has become too painful. Perhaps life has changed unexpectedly, and you’re struggling to adjust. Or maybe you’re repeating ineffective patterns, and you can’t figure out how to break those habits. Or it could be that your own emotions and thoughts feel overwhelming. If these or other problems are interfering with living the life you want and you are ready for change, let's work together. Therapy is a collaborative process anchored in your values and goals, and I'm dedicated to providing compassionate, change-oriented care to help you build a meaningful life.
I use evidence-based practices to address a range of mental health concerns and incorporate mindfulness, compassion, and values into our work to support you in reaching your goals. For those seeking specialized care, I have expertise in PTSD (including among military veterans and first responders) and suicidal thoughts/behaviors.
We each have a unique experience of the world that is informed by the intersectionality of our identities. I provide safe, affirming, confidential care for all individuals, including those with marginalized identities related to gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, ability, and neurodivergence. Reach out if you're ready for support.

I value working with clients who are struggling with overwhelming emotions, painful thoughts, and ineffective behavior patterns. When we feel stuck, it's often difficult to know where to go or how to even start. You and I will work together to identify your personal values and goals, use skills and strategies to help you get unstuck, and reconnect with what's important to you.

I take a transdiagnostic, skills-based approach to mental health treatment. Understanding and addressing the underlying cause is more important than a diagnostic label. Targeting the actual problem generates lasting change. When we are better able to regulate ourselves (our thoughts, emotions, and actions), stop avoiding, and accept reality for what it is, then we can start living our lives.
