I offer individual therapy for adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, perfectionism, self-criticism, intrusive thoughts, and relationship struggles. Our work together will be engaging, thought provoking, and supportive. I also understand counseling can be difficult at times. I am committed to being present alongside you during these moments and to honor your exploration into where you have been, where you are, and where you would like to go. We will work together to grow self-compassion, navigate painful thoughts and emotions, and create a life that feels meaningful to you.
I'm here to meet you where you are, using a range of approaches that fit your needs. I’m trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I strive to offer care that’s LGBTQIA+ affirming, culturally sensitive, anti-racist, trauma-informed, and weight inclusive.
You are the expert of your story and I strive to be a fellow traveler in our time together while we make sense of the world around us. I value taking a curious and non-judgmental stance with all of my clients. If you are interested in learning more about my services please reach out by phone, e-mail, or through my website.

Experiencing anxiety is a normal part of life. Sometimes we feel anxiety so intensely, in our attempts to cope and survive, we may find ourselves moving away from the life we want. My training treating anxiety utilizes approaches to assist others in connecting to their values, unhooking from painful thoughts/feelings, growing self-compassion, and helping you reconnect to what is important to you.

ACT is an engaging form of therapy that includes reflections, self-compassion, and clarifying what matters to you. If you find you have tried everything to stop painful thoughts or feelings, but the struggle continues, this may be a helpful approach. I hope you leave our sessions with a plan of action- something you can take with you and do between sessions that will make a positive difference.
