What kind of person do you really want to be? For yourself, for your relationships, for your community? What is getting in the way? I partner with individuals and couples that want a life of peace and purpose. I can not erase pain and hardship, however, I can provide guidance in creating the life YOU want in the midst of life’s inevitable ups and downs. From the beginning we will clarify your goals and practice skills together in order to bring the changes you desire. This might include learning to set and reinforce boundaries or untangling from painful thoughts memories or urges. Regardless of the goals, we will work together.

I recognize that finding a therapist can be quite time consuming & feel daunting. Our space here is limited, so lets get into it. I have been a practicing counselor for 20+ years. Areas addressed include: coping (w. change, life, distress), self sabotaging tendencies & negative self talk/thought spirals, resolving shame, establishing healthy boundaries, disentangling from unhealthy relationships & patterns of behaviors, decreasing people pleasing, grief/loss, identity. I strive to aid my clients in identifying which choices, thoughts & behaviors have served them well & which may need to be reframed, redirected or just released.

I am currently accepting new Telehealth clients! - Any number of barriers could impede peak performance. Anxiety, burnout, injury, external pressures, and trauma are but a few of the challenges my clients regularly face. Any one of these factors can lead to feelings of disappointment, dissatisfaction, and/or diminished self-esteem. Sometimes, my clients are unaware of the underlying mechanisms contributing to performance breakdown, distress, or loss of enjoyment in sport/performance or life in general. This can lead to maladaptive behaviors and beliefs that perpetuate a debilitative cycle.

Are you struggling with anxiety, burnout, injury, self-esteem, or life/career transitions? You are not alone! My speciality is working with performance-based populations: military, athletes, and performers. The pressure to maintain peak physical and mental readiness to achieve high levels of success, whether through operational missions, winning competitions, or delivering flawless performances can lead to emotional distress. These mental health struggles are often compounded by a culture that prioritizes physical achievements over mental health, making it difficult for these populations to seek help.

Life has a way of molding us into the person we had to be instead of the person we actually are. If you grew up with emotionally immature parents, you likely learned to shrink yourself or become the “reasonable one” while the adults acted like toddlers. Now, you're stuck in old patterns—choosing relationships that feel eerily familiar, doubting your needs, saddling yourself with responsibility for everyone else's joy while feeling chronically inadequate. It’s frustrating as hell, especially when you know what’s happening but can’t seem to shift it. Therapy with me is about dismantling the old M.O. and consciously choosing YOU.

If postpartum feels hard, if pregnancy is harder than you thought, if you're trying to conceive, or if you feel distant from your partner now that you're parents- you are not alone. Relationships, the perinatal season, and parenting are hard- I know from personal and professional experience. Because of this, I believe that these parts of our life should not be done alone. I offer couples therapy, family therapy, and individual therapy. I support individuals and couples from preconception to postpartum to parenting. I intimately understand the complexities of the postpartum experience and I will be honored to hold your story closely.
