Many of my clients feel stuck in cycles of overthinking, self-criticism, people-pleasing, emotional exhaustion, challenging relationship dynamics, and feeling disconnected. Navigating clients through changing core childhood beliefs about themselves, others, and the world is the cornerstone of my practice. By rewriting these foundational narratives, you can experience a profound transformation in your sense of belonging and in your relationship dynamics.
I have over two decades of experience treating anxiety, PTSD, OCD, depression, postpartum depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma, grief & loss, relationship issues, and parenting struggles. In short, I support people who are hurting, independent of label or diagnosis. I maintain a dedicated clinical focus on LGBTQIA+ identity and faith transitions.
I am a firm believer that my ability to help you feel emotionally safe is fundamental for successful therapeutic growth. I warmly welcome all genders, sexual orientations, ethnicities, races, and religions. Working as a therapist is undoubtedly my passion. I am profoundly honored to be the person who gently and compassionately holds your story.

I gently work with people who are hurting; people whose life view has been altered by a faith transition, by coming out as LGBTQIA in an unaccepting environment, and people who have a skewed sense of their worth due to childhood trauma.
