With over a decade of clinical experience, I help children, teens, and adults process difficult experiences, reduce anxiety, depression, and trauma symptoms, and build practical tools for everyday life.
You don’t have to carry everything on your own anymore. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma, or life stress, we can slow things down together and make sense of what you’ve been through. Many of the people I work with feel stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand or are tired of just “getting by” and want to feel like themselves again.

The world can feel like a lonely place when you struggle with feelings of anxiety and depression. Maybe what you are feeling can’t be explained and no one knows how you feel. People have told you to "just get over" things that have hurt you or to suck it up when you feel low. Maybe you were never taught how to express the way you feel emotionally and if you did, you were dismissed. If this is the case, know you are not alone there are people out there that feel the same as you do. There is hope in therapy. There is a safe place to be validated to be heard.

Are you finding yourself struggling with anxiety, irritability or overwhelming stress? You may be noticing that it is difficult for you to move forward following a distressing life experience and overwhelming emotions are keeping you from functioning at your highest potential. Sometimes past experiences, such as bullying or childhood abuse, can linger in the background manifesting as performance anxiety, panic attacks, overwhelming anger or frustration.

I am a firm believer of the client being behind the wheel on their therapeutic journey while I am there, passenger side, as the navigator providing guidance. I meet my patients where they are at and build off of their strengths to increase their self-esteem, knowledge, and well-being. The client-counselor relationship is very important to me, and I do my best to create a space where guards can be let down and vulnerability is welcomed through a person-centered approach.

My passion for this work began with teens and young adults, where I saw how much they hold beneath the surface.
I believe healing happens when you feel truly seen, known, and supported. Many of my clients come to therapy carrying worry, stress, or exhaustion—whether from academic pressure, relationship stressors, life transitions, pregnancy shifts, or the realities of early motherhood. Others come because they’re tired of perfectionism, people-pleasing, or feeling like they have to hold everything together for everyone else. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling more grounded, more hopeful, and more connected to the person you hope to be.

Life may look good out on outside —a job or a career, solid relationships, a family maybe, and a circle of friends. But on the inside, things might feel different. Perhaps you find yourself feeling unfulfilled, stuck in recurring emotional struggles, or disconnected from the people and moments that matter most to you. Maybe you feel weighed down by comparisons, regrets, grief, or the constant push to do more, leaving you unable to pause and appreciate your progress. No matter how hard you work or how much you give, there’s a sense that it’s still not enough.

Life can be hard, but you and your family do not have to navigate it alone.

I take an integrated and collaborative approach to care – every person is unique, and, as a result, I believe treatment should always be tailored to your unique needs and circumstances.

I work with adults, couples, and families carrying trauma — including veterans, survivors of childhood abuse, and complex trauma that never had a name — along with anger, personality disorders, and adolescents whose families have stopped being able to hear each other.
I'm certified in TF-CBT, DBT, and Adlerian approaches, and am completing my EMDR certification, alongside ADHD and parent coaching training. My work is methodical: assessment first, plan second. Because I measure progress every session, my clients see meaningful improvement well above national benchmarks — and almost none get worse.

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.
