I have over a decade of experience as a Psychotherapist, helping clients recover from trauma (including religious trauma), manage ADHD, reduce anxious and depressive symptoms, shift destructive behavioral patterns, and manage complicated relationships. I have a highly relational, eclectic approach, and I specialize in utilizing EMDR, IFS, and CBT frameworks. I truly believe everything is connected, both internally and externally. Thus, it is imperative to account for the individual as well as the systems they exist within in order for therapy to be effective. I also think it's important to laugh once in a while.

You're a reliable, high-functioning woman—someone who looks like they have their whole life together, but on the inside it feels like things are falling apart. You're dealing with a lot of stress, your racing thoughts keep you up at night, and you find it hard to say nice things to yourself. You have big dreams and life goals, but somehow you can't quite keep up with day-to-day demands. Outside influences and pressure are bringing you down, you're procrastinating on important tasks, and avoidance has become your go-to coping mechanism. Welcome, I'm glad you made it here! I'd love to help you get unstuck, find balance, & feel better.

I have over 18 yrs experience providing trauma-informed, crisis support to adolescents, adults and families in community and 5 years in outpatient clinical settings.
My clients are often the ones everyone else relies on. They're capable, compassionate, and juggling careers, relationships, caregiving, parenting, or major life transitions—but beneath it all, they're exhausted. Many are navigating burnout, perimenopause, invisible labor, divorce, empty nest grief, resentment, or a growing sense that they've lost themselves. Together, we uncover the patterns keeping them stuck, build healthier ways of relating to themselves and others, and help them create a life that feels more balanced, authentic, and sustainable—one where they can thrive, not just get by.

Finding the optimal therapeutic fit is a bit like going on a blind date... you hope for the best and prepare for the worst. People who think I'm a fit are often high-achieving individuals with an acute awareness of the issue, feel they have tried "everything" to fix it, and are giving therapy “one last chance.” I successfully get clients “unstuck” by challenging them in unconventional, collaborative ways. I intentionally push people 20% past where they are comfortable (because that’s where the growth happens!) and practice pivoting to ensure you have the skills to navigate, manage, and address the discomfort long-term.

I offer a warm, affirming space for teens and adults navigating anxiety, ADHD and other neurodivergence, trauma, identity exploration, and the messy realities of growing up (at any age).
In therapy, we’ll explore what’s happening in your life, get curious about patterns, and build skills that help you feel more grounded, empowered, and capable. I use trauma-informed, neurodivergence-affirming care with mindfulness and insight-oriented approaches. Therapy with me is collaborative, validating, and very human.

I began working as a therapist in a Community Health Center seeing individuals, couples and families with minor to severe mental health issues, many suffering from past trauma. This led me to seek more education, supervision and training to help treat those reporting trauma and dissociative symptoms. Now, I mainly work with individuals dealing with complex trauma and dissociative disorders, though I still see some couples/families where one member is dealing with trauma-related dissociative symptoms. I work collaboratively, partnering with people to help resolve lingering past and current issues to achieve their stated goals.

Change is a central experience in the human condition. Life has a way of presenting both the things we want and the things we don't want. Sometimes the unwanted shatters our hopes and expectations, like the loss of a loved one through death or divorce or illness, or the loss of a job, or a dream. My intention is to help you find a deeper awareness of yourself and your mission in your unfolding story. Guided by your pace, I seek to be a supportive and active presence as you follow your unique path into and through the changes life presents.
