Working with children and adolescents and their families since 1997, my emphasis has always been on how to help the adults help their kids. My focus is on finding out what a child needs and then figuring out how to help their parents, schools or caregivers meet those needs. I work with a variety of presenting concerns-from anxiety, depression, behavorial problems, grief, trauma, divorce and normal life transitions.

I offer evaluations to help understand a child's cognitive and social development, learning style, and other skills. These evaluations can help diagnosis things such as dyslexia, ADHD, autism, executive functioning delays, or learning differences. They can also help parents and schools understand what supports and interventions will help a child reach their potential. We can do evaluations for individuals ranging in age from early childhood to college.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, and trauma that leads to difficulties with regulating emotions. I support clients who experience overwhelming anxiety that leads to behaviors like shutting down, self injurious behaviors and withdrawal from social situations. The clients I work with are willing to unpack childhood and the unconscious to increase self awareness and help them make sense of their current behaviors. I also work with couples who struggle with communication that leads to discontentment in their relationships.

With a strong foundation in somatic therapies, including specialized training in Somatic Experiencing, I provide mental health counseling focused on trauma recovery and embodiment. My approach helps clients impacted by trauma and dissociation regain a sense of presence and engagement in their relationships and daily lives. I emphasize in-person sessions, as I find that somatic work is most effective in a shared physical space, fostering a deeper therapeutic connection and facilitating greater healing.

What if healing deepens not by asking why, but by noticing where unease lives in the body and how it’s been trying to speak? Maybe you’re burnt out, disconnected, or lost sight of who you are. You carry so much for others, but lately, even showing up for yourself feels heavy. Or maybe you're in a season of change—grieving what was, uncertain of what's next, or caught in between. I work with adults in these “in-between” spaces—between who they’ve been and who they’re becoming. Whether you're facing life transitions, identity shifts, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can offer a space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with yourself.

Areas of focus I specialize in are trauma, multi-generational trauma, addictions, codependency, women's issues, racism and white identity, life transitions, depression and anxiety.
My passion is teaching specific tools to help people heal from the distress of current, past, or multi-generational trauma and any related addictions. I can provide an atmosphere of safety and compassion to assist in expressing, understanding and healing the pain and shame of trauma and addictions; thereby transforming the legacy of pain into a legacy of healing. As a proponent of social justice and anti-racism, I also promote understanding of how we are shaped by community and community is shaped by us through the intersectionality of race, gender, class, and sexuality.

Are you struggling to feel heard or understood by others or even yourself? As we navigate challenges and successes we begin to write the stories of our lives, and I believe that every person has a valuable story worth telling. Sometimes experiences in your story are at the hands of someone else, which can be upsetting and it can be hard to understand why. Counseling provides the opportunity for us to talk through what feels hard or confusing and give it a new meaning in your life.

The foundation of my practice stems from the belief that every person has an inner capacity for well-being. I believe that when a safe environment is created, people can access their own inner resources and discover their own solutions. I strive to create a warm, supportive environment which allows children and adults to heal and begin the journey of reconnecting to themselves. I see my role in counseling being an empathic, deep listener as you explore and identify your unique values and goals.
