Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, navigating a big life transition, struggling in your relationships, or carrying the weight of unresolved trauma? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out alone either. I’m a trauma-informed, person-centered therapist offering compassionate support for individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, work stress, relationship concerns, identity shifts, and reproductive health. I also integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy to help clients explore parts of themselves—like the inner child, protective parts, or anxious parts—with curiosity and care.

The therapeutic relationship is one of healing and hope. Facilitating that relationship is very important because I understand the value of working with someone not pushing their usually well-intentioned agenda onto your situation. Someone outside our problems who has no investment in how we handle those problems can offer limitless perspective and an abundance of compassion. In addition to being a listening ear, therapists have many resources and tools to help us navigate whatever challenges and changes life throws at us. This is the type of therapist I strive to be.

I understand what it's like to be bound by a substance or behavior such as porn or social media and trying to make better choices with it. You may be using cannabis, alcohol or "scrolling" and don’t want to stop but you want to be able to manage it better or be more productive or even have people leave you alone about it but making these changes aren’t coming as easily as you hoped it would. This process can very shaming and cause feelings of inadequacy or weakness and you’ve been trying to control and manage this all by yourself. In addition, I also work with a variety of other mental or emotional issues and concerns.

I am astonished each day by the beauty and resilience of the human mind and spirit. I believe that we all have so much wisdom, power and purpose inside of us that is just beneath the surface, waiting to breakthrough and be expressed. Sometimes when we feel we are at our lowest, our inherent will to grow and overcome is unleashed and we can alchemize all of the pain, trauma and darkness into power, joy and light. This does not have to be a long and draining process, in fact, my goal is to facilitate relief, hope and excitement for the future as soon as the first session, and move from surviving to thriving.
