When talk therapy is not enough...
Clients often find me when they've had some experience with traditional therapy and have gotten some benefit from it, but there is still something getting in their way. They frequently say "I know what I need to do, but I just can't seem to do it."
Using trauma-informed therapies like EMDR Therapy, Brainspotting, Internal Family Systesm (IFS), and Trauma Release Exercises (TRE), we focus on resolving old wounds and stumbling blocks so you can live the life you long to have.

I'm AuDHD, and I specialize in working with neurodivergent adults—ADHD, autism spectrum, OCD, and highly sensitive nervous systems—who are experiencing neurodivergent burnout, anxiety, and executive overwhelm.
You may be self-aware and capable, yet exhausted from masking, overfunctioning, or feeling like life requires twice the effort. If your nervous system feels stuck in overdrive, you’re not alone—and you don’t need to keep pushing through without support.

I love the concept of developing "grit". Learning how to overcome the obstacles and emotions that stand in our way. Let me help you deal with the inevitable anxiety and frustrations we face and develop the skills that help you deal with them. Perseverance, flexibility and adaptability gets us farther than intelligence, skill and luck ever will or ever have. If you are sick and tired of being sick and tired...I can help. Some days we need a cheerleader with pom poms; some days, we may need a "kick in the butt" or a nudge. All days we want to feel understood, accepted and validated. I am known as being both direct and kind.

Looking to unlock your mental game as an athlete, employee, or boss? As a Mental Health Therapist with 14 years of experience in sports performance and Sports Medicine, I have worked with thousands of athletes, addressing their physical needs to help them return to full capacity and compete. Through my experience, I have found that, whether on a court or in an office, individuals can only be their best if they focus on their overall health and wellness. The mental game is as important, if not more important than, the physical game in finding success.

I am most passionate about helping my clients recover and connect to their authentic self, helping them use that improved connection to heal and live more fully. Clients often need to find relief from fear, sadness, addiction, conflict, lostness. But lasting relief usually requires finding their true selves more fully. This may involve letting go of the anesthesia of addictions, overthinking and emotional disconnection, as well as shame and self-misunderstanding. Not everyone is ready or willing to do the deeper work that this requires, and that is ok. But as a therapist I am a better fit for those that are willing to try.

I believe that finding and understanding the root of a client's trauma is an important first step in the healing process, whether you're an adult or child. Utilizing cognitive behavioral therapeutic techniques, I aim to help clients change or manage unhealthy thoughts or beliefs, in order to respond to situations in a more effective manner.

You don't have to stay stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Many people come to therapy knowing what they do but not understanding why they do it. I help clients look beneath the surface to uncover the beliefs, emotional wounds, and protective patterns driving anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and recurring reactions. Together, we'll make sense of what feels confusing, build healthier ways of responding, and create lasting change rooted in greater self-awareness, healing, and connection.

When should someone seek treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
People should seek a diagnosis and treatment after a head injury, especially if they were unconscious, and an early diagnosis can lead to a better recovery. Signs of a concussion include headaches, nausea or vomiting, exhaustion, dizziness, vision problems, sensitivity to light and sound, problems with attention and memory, brain fog, unusual irritability or sadness, and unusual sleep patterns.
What’s the most common treatment for a traumatic brain injury?
Treatment for a traumatic brain injury will be different depending on the severity of the problem. For mild injuries, treatment may involve rest and over-the-counter pain or headache medication. For moderate or severe injuries, treatment may involve stabilization, medication, and rehabilitative therapies such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, cognitive therapy, and counseling.
How long does it take to recover from traumatic brain injury?
The recovery time for a traumatic brain injury depends on the individual and the severity and nature of the injury; the length of time spent unconscious is often an indicator of severity. Recovery time for mild injuries may be a week or two while recovery time for more severe injuries may be six months to two years. Research suggests that the vast majority of recovery occurs in the first two years after an injury; recovery after that time frame is less certain.
What if a traumatic brain injury is left untreated?
If a traumatic brain injury is left untreated, it can lead to long-term physical and mental health problems. Physical problems may include dizziness, headaches, vision, healing, or speech loss, and an elevated risk of dementia. Psychological problems may include impairments of memory, judgment, and decision-making, depression, aggression, poor impulse control, and personality changes.
