Getting to know who you are and what you are is a harrowing journey for even the hardiest among us. Let me embark on it with you and be your guide in discovering who you are, what's important to you, and how to get there! I have experience working through gender exploration, sexual orientation exploration, major life transitions, depression, anxiety, romantic relationship difficulties, sexual topics, and so much more. I am the best fit for clients who need a gentle, empathetic push towards self-love and fulfillment. I particularly love working with the struggling perfectionist.

I have the utmost respect for lived experience. I'm convinced we are influenced by early relationships and unconscious patterns, as well as social, cultural, and systemic forces that surround us. Experiences such as racism, gendered expectations, economic pressure, and trauma don’t just happen “outside” of us—they profoundly influence how we see ourselves and relate to others. There is a unique pain that comes from trying to survive in a world that often wasn’t built with us in mind. By understanding how past experiences and present social realities intersect, we can build greater insight, self-compassion, growth, and resilience.

I have specialized training and experience in working with substance use (particularly in harm-reduction), PTSD and trauma, racial/ethnic identity exploration, anger management, men and masculinity, veterans, and the LGBTQ+ community.

During times of stress and uncertainty, it may be difficult to get through the day, go to work, or be present with your loved ones. On top of that, these uncertain times can trigger anxiety, overwhelming emotions, and cause us to feel "stuck". Therapy provides an opportunity to find hope for the future, find joy and happiness, stability, and a sense of meaning or purpose in a rapidly changing world. I believe that everyone deserves a nonjudgmental, compassionate, and empathetic therapeutic experience.

I completed my master's internship at UNMC Counseling and Psychological Services where I had the opportunity to work with graduate and medical students. During this time, I started integrating neuroscience into treatment planning. I have found this evidence-based approach resonates well with my clients because they can better understand the way that they respond to their environment and how their internal processing frames the way in which they view the world.

In therapy I implement effective psychotherapy methods to instill self-understanding among patients and encourage them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. It is essential to keep in mind that therapy is not a magic pill or a quick fix: therapy is a healing process that necessitates participation and investment from the patient and caretaker alike. But in the end, making small changes to self-defeating behavior and coping with feelings of sadness, fear, and pain can bring life-altering results.
