When seeking out a therapist and scheduling that first session, it may bring about a mix of emotions. It may even be tough to identify how you’re feeling about this process. There may even be a mix of emotions after that first session. But I want you to know that it’s ok to feel whatever it is you may be feeling.

Healing shouldn't be a struggle; it’s a journey toward liberation. I approach therapy with the belief that it doesn’t need to leave you with a “thinking hangover” between sessions. Instead, we’ll dive into a different way of healing—one that prioritizes your body’s wisdom and innate responses. My goal is to help you feel safe and grounded in your own skin, fostering a deeper connection with yourself. My passion lies in helping humans who have faced trauma, particularly those struggling with disconnection and a sense of unsafety in their relationships or attempting to balance substance use with mental wellness responses.

The world can be a confusing place, especially for the youngest members of our society. I enjoy providing support for children, teenagers, and young adults by getting to know them, their interests, and their difficulties. I focus on social/emotional skills such as communicating feelings in a healthy way and practicing emotional regulation skills. In my practice, I have noticed that self-awareness and understanding provides a good foundation for growth. These tools and others are helpful for navigating problems such as anxiety, low self-esteem, anger, depression, and relationship difficulties.

Maybe you feel yourself start to close off when someone asks how you're doing, because you don't really know the answer. Maybe you're a parent, who doesn't recognize who your teen has become. Maybe your partner doesn't feel like your partner, this relationship doesn't look like how you envisioned it would anymore. Maybe depression, guilt, or shame have become so familiar, that you wonder what therapy would even do. Maybe you just want to be known by someone.

My ideal client faces anxiety, PTSD, trauma, eating disorders, relationship struggles, perfectionism, self-esteem issues, life transitions, co-dependency, and self-sabotage concerns. They seek stability, calmness, independence, and control over their lives. This client wants a no-BS approach that’s refreshing and clear. With my interactive style, they’re engaged in active, two-way conversations that cut through vague advice and focus on tangible change. Ready to confront their challenges, they value practical, realistic strategies, aiming to feel grounded, resilient, and empowered in their daily lives.

I work with clients who are wanting to understand themselves more fully, figure out what may be holding them back from the life they've imagined for themselves, uncover what is beneath troubling behaviors, and/or find ways of being and relating that feel healthier and more fulfilling. Some clients come in speaking of feeling discouraged, restless, worried, unfulfilled, or unhappy within themselves and/or their relationships; others come in with just a vague sense that life could feel much better.

Finding the right therapist for you is important. My style tends to be warm and soft-spoken but I can be gently confrontational when necessary. I decided to become a therapist because I deeply care about helping others in meaningful ways.
