Life can be painful, but therapy doesn’t have to be. I specialize in helping people overcome existential stressors, recover from complex trauma, and restore meaning and balance to their lives. My approach is a little different from basic "talk" therapy - I focus on building skills that empower my clients to create real change in their lives. People often come to me when they're feeling "stuck" or have hit a plateau with previous therapy, and I enjoy working with folks who are new to therapy or who are feeling skeptical about the process.
I offer integrative therapy and evidence-based treatments like EMDR, CPT, ACT, & CBT. I help people build flexibility, self-confidence, and develop effective strategies for creating meaningful and lasting change in their lives. My treatment style is present-focused, science-based, and sensitive to clients' unique backgrounds, identities, & healthcare needs.
Whether you'd like to build more satisfying relationships, recover from trauma, strengthen self-confidence, address anxiety or depression, or change unhelpful patterns, we can work on it together. Reach out and let's get started!
