People seeking counseling may be troubled by 'external' challenges such as having to deal with difficult people or contend with serious financial issues. Or, problems may lie within the self--you may be stuck in patterns of feeling or behavior that sabotage your pursuit of happiness. Mostly, those entering counseling face both kinds of challenges. If you were to work with me, we would clearly identify and prioritize problems, choose appropriate strategies, and take action to resolve problems. We'll usually work extensively on thoughts and feelings before easing into behavior change.

Unleash your inner mermaid. Like a mermaid, you were born wondrous and whole, with awe-inspiring potential. Perhaps, like her, trauma hides your power, voice, and sense of magic; tries to cut you off from true self, body, community, and nature’s rhythms; tells oppressive stories that serve to keep you “in your place,” lost, lonely, ashamed, fearful, unfulfilled, or hating your body. The mermaid reclaims her birthright and returns to her community– stronger and more magnificent than ever. You, too, can lay that colonizing fear “am I enough?” in its watery grave, re-discover your voice & trust through therapeutic yoga or ecotherapy.

currently have openings...It can be a very scary feeling to take the first step towards therapy for you or your loved ones, and it takes courage and strength to ask for help. You are now taking those all-important first steps! You may be experiencing feelings of anxiety, depression, loneliness, and hopelessness, just to mention a few on a very long list of not-so-good feelings. Any of these feelings can make you feel stressed, unmotivated, and not knowing how to move forward.

For two decades, I've had the privilege of sitting with people through some of their harder and more tender moments — teens finding their footing, college students in the thick of big change, and adults working to feel more like themselves again.
I offer a space that's warm, honest, and free of judgment, where you can say the things that are hard to say and be met with real understanding. My style is genuine and down-to-earth: I'll listen closely, help you make sense of what's going on, and go at a pace that feels right for you.

ATTN: I will be out on maternity leave from late October 2026 to January 2027. Please feel free to reach out if you would like to know my availability for the new year!
I am so glad you stopped by. Trauma, past relationships, life stressors and more have a way of eating away at our joy and contentment, but are also incredibly difficult to overcome alone. Sometimes we need the little extra support of someone to come alongside us and offer kindness and empathy. I would be honored to walk along this journey with you.

Lastly, I am trained in EMDR and find it's really beneficial to help children reprocess trauma.
Is your child or adolescent struggling? Maybe a recent divorce, life transition, or addiction in the family has brought out some behaviors that are concerning to you. While I also work with couples, my primary focus is kids and teenagers that need some support or help working through a traumatic event. Often children show symptoms of anxiety, depression, and trauma differently than adults do, but noticing a behavioral change in your child and getting them support right away can make all the difference.

Did you grow up thinking you had a "good" childhood...but often felt alone, confused, or misunderstood? Did your parent’s needs always came first, and you were the “easy” or “independent” kid - quietly longing to be seen, understood, and like you belong? And now, as an adult, you doubt your feelings, have no idea who you are (or what you even like or want), struggle to connect in relationships, and feel like nothing is ever "good enough." These struggles are common when you grow up with emotionally immature or unavailable parents - but you don’t have to stay stuck here. Healing is possible - even if your parent never changes.

Hi! I’m a therapist with a passion for helping teens and adults navigate life’s ups and downs. With experience in providing Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I focus on helping you manage tough emotions, build stronger relationships, and find balance. I also have basic training in EMDR, which allows me to incorporate additional strategies for processing difficult experiences.
I love using creativity in sessions, especially art, as a way to express feelings when words don’t quite cut it. My approach is laid-back, nonjudgmental, and sometimes even a bit humorous—because therapy doesn’t have to feel stuffy.

I am trained in EMDR and have advanced EMDR training in dissociation.
I am a white, nonbinary transmasc, fat, chronically ill, AuDHDer with misophonia. My ideal clients are families (with children 6+) and adults navigating misophonia; and individuals navigating complex trauma, dissociation, OCD, and late-discovered ADHD/autism. I also deeply enjoy working with mental health professionals. I work from a systems and feminist perspective, recognizing the importance and impact of one’s primary relationships and social systems on one’s wellness. We are likely to work best together if you have been in therapy before, already have good coping/grounding skills in place, and are ready to do some deeper work.

EMDR Therapists
Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.
Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.
What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.
What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimizing its ability to trigger anxiety.
