I believe it is an act of profound courage and faith in oneself to enter into therapy! Whether you have been longing to be more connected to yourself or others, or are yearning for a sense of belonging, reaching out for support and guidance on your journey toward healing can be immensely helpful. Maybe you would like to be free from the patterns of pain that have held you back or dimmed your heart, like anxiety, self-limiting beliefs, depression, shame, loneliness or trauma caused by past or present experiences. While such complex emotions can feel insurmountable, you need not be alone as you seek balance and healing in your life.

Most people don’t begin therapy because their lives are collapsing. They begin because something isn’t sitting right. You’re functioning. You’re responsible. You’re meeting expectations. But the same conflicts resurface. The same anxieties spike. The same self-doubts hum beneath your competence. Or you’ve achieved what you were supposed to achieve and still feel unsettled.

I work with young teens and young adults who are feeling stressed, anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally stuck. Many of the people I support are navigating school pressure, work stress, family expectations, identity exploration, or major life transitions. Even when things appear “okay” on the outside, you may feel unsure how to manage your emotions or feel disconnected from yourself and others. I enjoy working with clients who are open to self-exploration and growth, even when the process feels challenging at times.

Life can sometimes be challenging; it is filled with ups and downs. It takes a strong person to ask for help when faced with the challenges life may bring. It is important for you to know that you do not have to go through these challenges alone. As a therapist, I believe that you are the expert on your life. Through guided discovery, my goal is to collaboratively work with you to help you process and work through the issues that are present in your life.

I primarily work with individuals and couples who have experienced sexual trauma. Some of my clients come to therapy to address symptoms that are getting in the way of joy and connection, such as numbness, fear, confusion, and anger. Others come with a desire to understand themselves or their partners better; to feel more firmly grounded and empowered in their sense of self. With authenticity, warmth, and steadfast non-judgment, I accompany my clients as they find the truth, make meaning of it, and begin the process of healing and change.

Change is difficult. We often need someone we can trust to validate our struggles and nudge us forward. My clients feel some challenge, but are given realistic expectations, practical skills, and an open heart in return. They appreciate being held accountable while trusting they can safely make mistakes. Many find comfort in learning they have my unconditional support and that I breathe with them through distress.

It can be hard to adapt to life's uncertain events and changes, so having a skill set to manage these changes is important. We all have thoughts, feelings, and stressors that can compile with nowhere for them to go. This can feel like a lot to handle, and that is okay. Everyone deserves a space where they can express themselves in a safe, supportive environment. Through counseling, an individual can find support that is nonjudgmental and empathetic as well as learn new skills and manage the unexpected. You don’t have to handle everything alone, and you can learn to manage yourself better for whatever comes next.

You're getting through it. Work, relationships, expectations, decisions. You're managing all of it. But there's a version of your life where you're not just getting through it, and you know that. The anxiety is too loud. The pressure is too constant. Something underneath it all needs attention. I work with young adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and the particular kind of overwhelm that comes with building a life while managing everything it throws at you. My approach is warm, practical, and grounded. We'll work on both the skills and the deeper stuff underneath them.

You may be feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety - whether it’s from external demands or internal struggles. Maybe it's social anxiety, "a life transition," or healing from trauma. Or maybe it's something more general, like you want to feel more "in control" of your emotions…and your life. I can help. Together, we’ll uncover the roots of your challenges, empowering you to move forward - with skill and confidence. I use “treatments that work” (CBT, DBT, mindfulness, etc). But we’ll find what works for YOU. Lastly, I don’t just want you to just “feel better.” I want you to live your best life. I'm looking forward to meeting you!
