If you're motivated to grow, open to exploring change, and ready to learn about yourself, then I want to help you do just that. I believe in showing up in therapy as a real, compassionate person that you can talk to, laugh with, and be skeptical with to approach your growth and your problems in a way that feels both fully human and fully manageable. Whether you are facing trauma, navigating neurodivergence, exploring questions about gender and sexuality, walking the tightrope of being a caregiver, or going through a life transition, I'm here to walk beside you every step of the way.
I pull from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and am trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy. I blend these approaches with a humorous, empathetic, and direct style of therapy to create a space full of compassion and honesty, where you never have to worry about being judged.
I understand the struggles of finding a balance between caring for yourself and others. I understand conflict, and the deep wounds that battling your way through life or navigating difficult transitions can leave. I also understand the healing that can come from personal growth and vulnerability. Let's explore that healing together.

Clients seek to work with me on topics such as caregiver burnout, neurodivergence, gender and sexuality, identity, trauma, and coping with mood concerns. Therapy can be daunting at times, and it's okay to be skeptical. I always strive to make the work we need to do feel human and approachable.
