Have you felt disconnected between what you think and what you feel? Have you feared what others would think if you lived authentically? I am passionate about helping folks dealing with disordered eating, trauma, anxiety, and/or depression to heal their relationships to themselves, to others, and their bodies. I aim to create a compassionate space for clients to feel seen and understood through exploring their authentic self and unlearning societal beliefs that they want to release in order to build a life that best suits them.

I see you. Quietly pretending everything is fine, not wanting to take up space. I hear you. All the mistaken beliefs like “I am not good enough, or I am unloveable.” I feel you. All the disappointments carefully tucked away in your heart or unsaid words clogged in your throat. Let’s lighten your heart, mind & body so you can live a life from your highest truth. I am gobsmacked by the power of love & joy. I help you call home all the parts of you that were broken off due to shame, embarrassment, regret, guilt, fear & trauma. Like a beautiful mosaic, let's integrate these parts into the whole masterpiece that is you.

I enjoy working with folks at the crossroads of their lives such as starting or ending relationships, shifting from young to middle adulthood, exciting new endeavors, or grieving the loss of something important.
When you choose to work with me, you will get compassionate care and a narrative approach to issues. I start out by learning more about where you come from, what kind of attachments you developed in your early life, and what beliefs you’ve formed about what it means be in relationships with other people.

You're sure the average therapist can't handle or accept you, because that's what you get everywhere else you go. School, work, almost everywhere, it's been an uphill struggle to fit in and feel understood -- IF you even bother anymore. If you DO find YOUR people, YOUR tribe, you spend the whole time secretly terrified they'll figure out you're not good enough and kick you out. You've been burned a few too many times, which just reinforces your belief that you'll never belong. All that rejection and pain sits in your body and spirit, grinding you down every day. But there's still part of you that believes you can find your place.

I have worked with adults who struggle with eating disorders, perfectionism, anxiety, depression, body image, relationship struggles, and difficult life transitions.
Sometimes life can become so overwhelming that we feel stuck and are unsure where to turn next. Sometimes in order to manage this stress, we turn to coping skills or patterns that are not helpful or healthy for us in the long run. For the past 15 years, I have worked with individuals to help them build awareness of any unhelpful patterns and behaviors that have gotten in way of living in line with their values and how they want to show up in their relationships and the world around them.

“Why do I feel like this? Why doesn’t it change?” These questions are so hard to sit with on our own. I’d love to help you find your answers.
Together, we can collaborate on seeing the roots, connections, and patterns in your life which are disrupting your ability to feel whole, healthy, present, and alive. Humans are complex. Every part of us is in relationship to something, and those feedback loops can be confusing to navigate.
My style is active, insight-based, creative, and flexible. My approach blends Jungian Depth Psychology (becoming whole) with Interpersonal Neurobiology (how mind/body/relationships shape each other).

With a deep appreciation for the complexity of the human experience, I bring both professional training and a lifetime of insight to my work as a psychologist.

I strive to create a space that feels genuine, respectful and grounded, where you can show up as you are and feel truly heard. My approach is guided by curiosity, compassion, and the belief that meaningful change is possible at any stage of life.

From the outside, it may look like you have things under control. But underneath, you can sense that something isn’t quite right. Maybe you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, burnout, a breakup or divorce, or trying to make sense of past experiences that continue to get in the way. You tend to keep a lot to yourself, worried about being misunderstood, judged, or disappointed again. You push yourself hard but still feel like something’s missing. You’ve handled a lot on your own, yet some patterns don’t seem to change regardless of how much effort you put in. If you’re here, you may be wondering whether therapy could truly help.

I believe that each individual frames their life from their experiences. Such experiences can cause distress, sometimes making life unbearable. I invite clients in the direction of the unconscious mental process to create healing and promote change. With wholeheartedness and non-judgemental support, I offer a deep journey in search of keys to unveil the answers that lie within. I help clients to find insight, and cope with the underlying causes of emotional and psychological symptoms. I suppose that it is through telling one's unique story, that one can re-write it.

" My experience over the past decade has been across settings including hospital, crisis response, in-home, and outpatient therapy supporting adolescents, adults, and families.

FAQ - About Adult Counseling
Why should adults see a therapist?
Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioral therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication. Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.
How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?
When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists hold various licenses depending on their training and state requirements. Common therapy credentials include Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs), Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs). Psychologists (PhD or PsyD) receive additional doctoral-level training and may focus on assessments or more specialized therapeutic approaches. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.
How do I find a therapist who sees adults?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
