Whether you're grappling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or challenging life transitions, we will collaborate to identify your counseling goals.
Now enrolling for 2025 Adolescent & Family DBT Groups - Navigating the ups and downs of life can be challenging. It helps to have genuine and nonjudgmental support along the way. If you encounter a fork in the road of life and feel unsure of which path to take, counseling may help you explore personal growth and positive change. In our busy lives, it can be difficult to slow down and truly connect with ourselves, our values, and our understanding of the world around us. I believe therapeutic change occurs when we let go of perceived pressures and expectations so that we may seek a better understanding of our authentic selves.

Additionally, I enjoy working with veterans, religious trauma survivors, and the LGBTQIA2S community.
You're not broken or lazy—you're tired of pretending. You've spent years camouflaging, people-pleasing, and overachieving to survive in a world that wasn't designed for you. You rest just enough to feel human again, only to land back in the same cycle of burnout and overwhelm. Maybe other therapists said you're “too self-aware,” but I see your insight as a strength. You're the expert on yourself. I'm here to help you reconnect with your intuition & shed others’ demands and expectations. This journey is about coming home to yourself, without the “shoulds” or the pressure to conform, and finding a path forward.

In my practice, I draw upon a unique blend of psychodynamic psychotherapy, interpersonal psychotherapy, and multicultural psychotherapy all guided by a trauma-informed lens.
You wake up in the middle of the night, your mind swirling with thoughts of whether you'll ever be able to trust someone again – to let down those walls that have become your armor. The old ways of coping that once served you now seem to be crumbling, leaving you feeling even more adrift. Each time you tidy up a space, the weight of responsibilities feels unbearable, and you can't help but yearn for someone to care for you, to give you the break you so desperately need and deserve. If your day-to-day seems like a maze of responsibilities and obligations that leave little room for your own well-being, I understand and I can help.
