Looking for a therapist who gets you? Finding the right fit makes all the difference, but what a daunting, exhausting task. So here's my pitch: I believe in meeting you where you are without judgment and remaining flexible in my approach. I prioritize straightforward communication so we can make adjustments that work for you. If you are navigating grief, anxiety, depression, burnout, low self-esteem, or are just feeling stuck, let's talk.
But we are more than our issues, so here's who tends to connect well with my approach: animal lovers, child-free folks, secular thinkers, introverts, planners, and out-of-state transplants.

We all have painful patterns in our lives that we've struggled to figure out how to shift. I believe change occurs when we are able to have experiences of ourselves, others, and the world that counteract previous experiences that have rigidified in our bodies and minds. In my therapeutic work, I help to create those experiences during session by being a deep and empathetic listener and an active and challenging guide and facilitator.

My approach to therapy is nonjudgmental, inclusive, and deeply person-centered. I believe healing begins when we feel fully seen and understood. I work with teens, adults, and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions.
Before becoming a therapist, I spent years as a Christian pastor. Though I no longer identify as religious, this experience helps me connect with people from a wide range of spiritual and faith backgrounds—including those who are deconstructing, spiritually curious, or healing from religious trauma. I create a space where your story, values, and sense of meaning are respected.
