You may be navigating trauma, anxiety, grief, anger, relationship challenges, life transitions, changes in identity, or simply wanting to deepen your connection with yourself and grow. I offer a warm, authentic, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen, heard, and accepted exactly where you are, recognize your strengths, and work toward meaningful change. As a former police officer, I have a particular heart for first responders, veterans, and those accustomed to being the person others rely upon. I also enjoy working with couples seeking to strengthen their connection, deepen understanding, and approach challenges together.
My approach is person-centered, trauma-informed, and integrative, drawing from mindfulness, CBT, DBT, parts-informed work, self-compassion, and somatic approaches tailored to your needs and goals. With couples, I draw from Gottman-informed principles to help partners understand the experiences and patterns they each bring while strengthening connection.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel vulnerable, especially when you're not sure what to expect. I believe feeling comfortable, understood, and supported in therapy matters. If you feel we may be a good fit, I invite you to reach out. I would be honored to hear your story and walk alongside you toward what matters most.
