We all learn through early relationships and experiences how to communicate with others and ourselves, and how to cope and engage with our reality—-whatever that may be. Sometimes over the course of our lives, what we’ve learned no longer serves us and our needs. I believe that therapy serves as a space to become aware of who we’ve been and who we want to be, while engaging in new and healthy dynamics. These things are all part of life and they ebb and flow. I view therapy as an ever-evolving process with my goal being to get to the root cause of symptoms.

“I am out with lanterns, looking for myself.” -Emily Dickenson. Can you relate, like you've lost parts of yourself? Whether it’s due to trauma, anxiety, addiction, ADHD, co-dependency, or parenthood, it can be tricky to put your finger on. Let’s get curious about those stories you’re carrying; most likely, they are heavy, and a part of you is ready to become unburdened. Together, we can move through the layers of your life, explore times, relationships and situations that contain conflict. I’ll meet you where you’re at, and from there, encourage you to identify themes and patterns in your life that are no longer working for you.

I provide therapy and coaching to high-achieving people, people who have an itch to accomplish something more than the ordinary, and people who are trying to figure out how to align their day-to-day lives with their deepest interests, talents and obsessions.
Often this is people in high-stress, decision heavy vocations: entrepreneurs, leaders, clinicians, creatives, attorneys, and first responders.

I greatly enjoy working with adults (18+) who are a part of the LGBTQ+ community and/or anybody navigating gender identity, perfectionism, life transitions, anxiety, self-worth, and/or self-compassion. I thrive when working with those who are motivated, curious, and who identify as deep thinkers and deep feelers. I also resonate deeply and work well with activists and community organizers.
The modalities I use the most include narrative therapy, self-compassion work, DBT, and ACT. I care deeply about social justice and work to bring an anti-oppressive, feminist, and queer lens to my work.
