Are you looking for balance, confidence, and fulfillment? You’ve done a lot of inner work; you’ve been in therapy before or explored personal development, and you have a strong sense of self-awareness. But despite your efforts, certain patterns keep showing up. Maybe you struggle to maintain work-life balance, set healthy boundaries, or manage stress in a way that feels sustainable. Maybe you feel unfulfilled in your career or relationships and aren’t sure how to create the changes you desire.

I believe that true healing can only begin when we finally feel safe. So much of our suffering comes from a world that feels unstable emotionally, physically, or mentally. My mission is to provide the sanctuary I once needed: a space where you are truly heard and protected. By prioritizing a sense of profound safety, we can create a foundation where you don't have to perform or protect yourself. Together, we move past the survival of the here and now to unpack who you really are and who you want to be.

If you’re reading this, you already have the motivation to heal, the insight to know you need a change and the resourcefulness to seek support. You knew enough to get yourself to this page and I know enough to take you through the journey you may be scared of and yet eager for. Working as a specialist in eating disorders and trauma, I understand the highs and lows of being self-critical to the point of self-punishment, blaming yourself for the situation you are in and being stuck in an endless cycle of overriding your gut instinct in order to please others. Recognize that your intuition got you to these words.

Everyone deserves to feel safe and supported with someone neutral, who is there to listen to your story.

I am supportive, collaborative and focused on helping individuals build skills to feel confident and achieve success in their every day lives. Together, we can make sense of this wild thing called "life".

I work with clients who may be struggling with trauma, depression, anxiety, life adjustments, family issues, school stress, women's issues, and parent-child strains.
I am passionate about helping adolescents, individuals, families, and couples navigate challenges related to identity, relationships, and emotional regulation. I specialize in family dynamics, couples issues, and supporting survivors of narcissistic abuse. Having grown up with a narcissistic figure, I understand how these relationships can leave you questioning your reality and self-worth. I believe everyone can benefit from therapy at some point in their lives. In our work, we will rebuild your confidence, help you trust yourself again, and make sense of your experiences, including learning to “grey rock” to protect your peace.

Women's Issues Therapists
How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.

How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.

How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
