Engaging in the process of psychotherapy invites you to become more self-aware. This heightened awareness can inspire and encourage you to seek changes in your relationship with yourself and others. I join in collaboration with my clients to better understand past and present experiences and how they currently affect life options, choices, and decisions. As a therapist, I draw upon clients’ emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual resilience to support healing and engagement in life.

I’m a queer, sex‑positive therapist who centers LGBTQIA+ folks, women, nonbinary and trans people in individual and relationship therapy. I’m a good fit if you’re unpacking sexual shame, navigating pelvic pain or chronic illness and sex, exploring your desire or orientation, or trying to make polyamory feel less chaotic and more secure. Together we’ll notice how culture, trauma, and power have shaped your story and build more self‑compassion, choice, and pleasure in how you relate to your body and the people you love. My goal is to offer a brave, playful space where you can be fully yourself and practice new ways of relating.

Are you in a relationship that's manipulative? Or are you unsure and need some clarity? If you've recently left a challenging relationship, I'm here for you and can be a guiding and healing hand. Relationships are an intricate dance, and we all have moments of imperfection; however, those missteps leave us feeling drained, hurt and afraid. You may feel like you're sacrificing your own needs in order to please your partner. You don’t want them to feel any discomfort even if it' costs of your own well-being. But, amidst all your selfless efforts, you don't feel loved in return. You hope that it will change, but it never does.

There are times in life when we feel overwhelmed by our emotions. When we’re triggered, it's even more difficult to handle life stressors. Our children, adolescents, and young adults have so much coming at them nowadays...That’s where I come in. I specialize in helping young people develop positive coping skills and strengthen their overall mental health. Our goals often include promoting emotion regulation, decreasing anxious and depressive symptoms, increasing self confidence, and fostering healthy relationships. We do this by expanding their self awareness and develop strategies to navigate life situations.

As a former Ohio State wrestler, one of my greatest passions is in Sports Counseling - helping athletes and families reach their potential where anger, negative self talk and fear can often times speak so loudly. I help others realize they can silence those voices and take ownership of their actions and emotions so sports, relationships and life can be fun!

You've had the same argument three nights in a row. Or maybe you're not arguing much anymore but feel more like roommates than partners. Somewhere between work, parenting, life transitions, and the noise of everyday life, the connection that once felt natural is now harder to find. I use Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help couples slow reactive cycles, understand what’s happening beneath conflict, and change the way they respond to each other in moments of stress and disconnection. We'll work to reduce conflict, rebuild emotional safety, and strengthen closeness and partnership in your relationship.

Navigating childhood and adolescence can be hard enough for an individual, but it's also tough on parents. There are no manuals that come with being a parent. When one person in the family is struggling, the entire family system struggles. I work with children, teens, and their caregivers on finding the tools to navigate through difficult issues. I am a clinician who is experienced to help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, school issues, behavioral challenges, suicidal ideation/self-harm, social challenges, and other mood-related concerns. I believe if the child is thriving, then the family system thrives.
