Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, anxious or stressed despite being accomplished in other areas of life? Maybe you struggle with feeling pressured to be perfect or be who others think you should be. You’re not alone. I understand that life is nuanced and can adversely impact mental health. I understand that people have complex inner dialogs and don’t always feel that there is a safe place to be both accomplished and emotionally vulnerable.

Seeking professional help for your mental health is a huge step towards building a healthy, peaceful life. It can be scary and intimidating, so take time to reward yourself for this decision.

I am particularly passionate about working with adults, teens, and couples who are struggling with trauma, mood disorders, anxiety and relationship issues. I aim to guide individuals into overcoming internalized shame and guilt, embracing self-compassion, and finding their voice. As someone who felt like she didn’t have a voice growing up, I hope to provide the space for others to explore their own experiences and identities to ultimately find peace and authenticity. I have worked as a therapist for three years and have experience working with individuals and couples in multiple communities.
