You've lost your spark and find yourself feeling tired, confused, maybe irritable, and even hopeless. As much as you've tried to improve relationships with others and your own well-being, you feel stuck. You feel misunderstood by others and struggle to relate or trust loved ones. You've maybe even tried therapy before without avail and are trying again in hopes of healing. You are looking for connection, not only to others, but also to yourself. Looking to others, online, and maybe within yourself has left you with more questions than answers. Above all, you want harmony, balance, or peace.
We will collaborate to combine science with your own values to develop a unique plan for you. I've worked in a variety of settings including corrections, VA & other hospitals, and private practice and use that to help adults facing relationship issues, mood concerns, life stressors, queer/non-monogamous folks, and chronic illness.
While I might have some letters behind my name, you know you best and therapy should respect your wisdom. If you're looking for an inviting space to create meaning, overcome barriers, integrate pieces that have only partly been addressed, and improve relationships while exchanging feedback in an affirming place, I'd love to hear from you!

I tend to work with clients who are likely facing multiple stressors at once, including neurodivergent folks, chronic illness, and those struggling to maintain relationships. I also work with queer clients, non-monogamous clients, and Veterans. You can expect creativity, openness, and some humor while we collaborate to reveal your strengths and a solidified plan to overcome your challenges.

First, we might take time to build trust and decide if this is a great fit (if not, I'll help you find someone else because it's your therapy!). I intentionally combine therapies for your unique needs to help you create balance and reach your goals. Creativity and openness are important to me, and we can accommodate how we do therapy as well!
