Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and depressed? You may be tired from trying to give everyone your best and still feel like you aren't enough. I believe that healing occurs when the mind, body, and spirit are acknowledged, nurtured, and allowed the freedom to fully transform. If we aren't living our life intentionally we unknowingly block the best versions of ourselves from emerging. Do you become fearful of success, self-sabotage growth, and yet continue to seek deeper meaning and purpose in your life? If this message resonates with you it's time to do something different! Ask yourself - What's the best that can happen?

We all bear marks and scars from life’s hardships and trials. Comparison of pain can frequently keep us from reaching out for help because “someone has it worse.” I am here to help you walk through whatever pain has brought you to where you currently are, grief, anxiety, depression, or transitions in life. Taking the step to seek counseling is incredibly brave; it is stepping out and saying you are more than what may seem insurmountable right now.

Welcome! Looking for a therapist is a courageous and important step towards improving your mental and emotional health. A supportive therapy relationship creates a path to knowing yourself more fully, learning about your thought and behavior patterns, and changing parts of your life that aren’t working for you. I believe people have intuition about what they need in order to feel more content. Some of these needs include developing healthier habits and self-care routines, relationship support, or processing trauma or loss. All of these reasons for pursuing therapy are important and can improve the quality of our lives.

I'm not going to lament to you about how hard life is; if you're here you know that. My clientele often have a history of working with many therapists, and not finding the help adequate. Whether it's Autistic Burnout, social exclusion due to neurodiversity, sexual difficulties, disabling symptoms of ADHD, or hitting a wall regarding improvement in therapy, I have a plan. Neurodiversity does not jive with homework, so I do not give any. You will be challenged, and given a plethora of psychoeducation; because it is so hard to change something unless you know how it works.

My ideal client is someone who may be feeling stuck—perhaps weighed down by generational patterns, overwhelmed by self-doubt, or struggling to navigate life transitions. They may be working through anxiety, perfectionism, identity questions, or relationship challenges. Often, they’re thoughtful and self-aware, but unsure how to move forward. What they truly want is to break free from the cycles that no longer serve them, build healthier ways of thinking and being, and develop a deeper sense of self-compassion and confidence.

“It’s no use going back to yesterday because I was a different person then.” “Who in the world am I? Ah, that's the great puzzle.” Alice, from Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. I like to ask my client's "What has happened to you" versus "What is wrong with you." "How can we get you to where you want to go?" I believe each client has their own story to tell. I am willing to join you on your path...

I want to create a safe and supportive atmosphere where people can discuss their lives freely without fear of judgement. While the specific goals of therapy are always decided by the client, my overarching goals with each person is that they will come to understand their worth as an individual, and will find freedom to fully engage with life. I believe in not only addressing issues that hold people back, but also in exploring their unique strengths and interests.
