Life can sure LIFE, right! The long “to do” list, the expectations from all those around you. The constant weight and pressure that can’t be explained or diminished. Feeling sad? Who has time to cry? "Not you!" You feel guilty for even thinking of taking a break, let alone self care. That irritable mood is lasting much longer than it used to these days and your family and friends are starting to call you out for it. That’s not who you are and that's not who you want to be. It feels like you are getting further and further away from yourself. If you can even remember who that is.

Life can present us with situations that cause pain, anxiety or suffering. These problems can stem from your past, or may have presented more recently. While this can be overwhelming, seeking out therapy is a courageous act in and of itself, and there is no correct point when beginning to address these issues. I know too well that coping with the challenges of life is not a straightforward path. That is why I offer my clients an open and trustworthy therapeutic environment where we can explore these issues in a trauma informed manner, to not only gain better insight, but also learn how to cope more effectively.

I am currently in network with Aetna, Ambetter, Cigna, and United, and I can provide superbills for out-of-network clients.
Everyone has a story to tell. Sometimes it is filled with dark twists and turns, shadows, and the unexpected. Other times it is full of light, gentle breezes, and warmth. Stories are often full of both and it can be daunting to try and revisit some of the harder chapters alone. I offer a place of solace for your stories. A place where we can open and read each chapter of it together, learn from them, and gather tools to face the battles ahead. A place where we can challenge the things that still haunt us from these stories, and then put them on a shelf, a reminder of where you came from and what you’ve overcome.

Welcome to you, squinting at this website, likely wondering if a therapist is the sort of thing that might actually help. Maybe you find yourself lost, heartbroken, furious, defeated, or confused. Maybe you're looking for a place to check in while dealing with the many stresses in this life. Or you or your relationships are caught in painful loops or explosions both expected or unexpected. Whatever brings you to search for a therapist, I find it’s some version of these questions: “Who am I? Where am I? How did I get here?"
