I am committed to working with clients to help them feel more energetic, satisfied with achievements, secure in relationships, and positive about the future. At times life experiences may overwhelm and discourage us. We may be grieving losses and past mistakes. If you deal with anxiety, depression, stress - you may feel vulnerable instead of resilient, focused on past trauma experiences/regrets, on fears for the future. I provide guidance and support as you explore and change habits of thought and behavior to improve relationships, to access natural resilience, to achieve a greater sense of personal security and self-confidence.

My areas of expertise include working with trauma, attachment, relationship issues, parenting support, anxiety and depression, self-harm and suicidal ideation.
Beginning therapy can be an overwhelming process and finding the right fit with a therapist is key to facilitating change. While I have many “tools in my toolbox” through years of experience and training, I believe the most important piece in the therapeutic relationship is connection and creating a safe space to allow vulnerability to be present. I utilize an attachment and trauma lens in my work, as I believe we learn how to function given the families, relationships and communities in which we grow up.

Now accepting new clients. Anxiety, depression, trauma and adverse experiences come out in different ways. Are you asking yourself “why do I keep doing this?” Do you question if you are "the problem"? Sometimes it feels like you have no one to talk to. You have BIG feelings, but hide these emotions from others. You’re just expected to be strong and not show emotion. You are tired. But you can’t slow down for fear of what may happen if painful memories overwhelm you. Maybe you're starting to realize you’re using not so healthy ways to deal.

I specialize in working with individuals who desire to improve their self-esteem, move away from people pleasing tendencies, struggle with anxiety, and want to discover new ways to solve problems within their family systems.
Immediate availability! My approach to therapy is warm and interactive. You’ll find me using humor a lot; just because therapy is hard work doesn’t mean it can’t be fun! I enjoy getting to know people on a deep level and helping uncover unconscious patterns holding them back. I'm all about getting to the root of a problem, and I will always be honest and direct with you. I offer a holistic approach to therapy and help people gain insight on the developmental experiences that shaped their current belief systems. To me, the biggest compliment is when clients enjoy coming to therapy and feel empowered to heal.

I work with adults and adolescents struggling with anxiety, low mood, relationship issues, and past trauma. I understand that pain has a way of separating us from ourselves and others, and I believe that we heal best within relationships. For that reason, I value the therapeutic relationship and strive to create a space where clients can feel truly understood. I offer all clients unconditional positive regard, and firmly believe that even in the most difficult times, all people are doing the best they can with the tools they have.

Let’s recontextualize and heal the trauma of the past, repurpose the anxiety of the future, and organize around the present moment.
If there is one thing I have learned as a therapist, it is reflected in this quote by Carl Rogers: “What is most personal is most universal”. We all hurt. We are all insecure. You are not alone. Though I believe we are more alike than different, not everyone’s therapy experience should be the same. Together, we would create a personalized therapy experience that suits your conversation style, personality, needs, pace. My job is to offer reframes and counterpoints, and sometimes challenge you. Therapy can be hard, but we can also have fun. I use humor to work through hard sh-t and I use hope as the engine to move you forward.
