As you open your eyes to another day, the tightness in your chest is still there. The hum of nervousness has begun in your belly and you're not even sure what you're really worried about. Dread fills your mind as you realize today is going to be one of those anxious days. You keep telling yourself to stop, relax and chill-out. It still doesn’t get better. You try to pause and see all you have going for yourself, thinking about the people who love you. Every day you give full effort to do what’s right, put your friends and family first. None of it works. None of it stops the worry. It feels as if the anxiety now has full control.

Clients who have wounds, especially interpersonal ones, find that they feel heard without judgement when working with me. I don't get embarrassed or surprised and I think clients find I am warm, genuine, open-minded and respectful. My experience is heavily focused on trauma, especially interpersonal; anxiety; and parenting challenges. Talking with people in counseling is a gift people share with me and I am honored when I can be a part of someone's "story." With 20 years of clinical experience, I have had many opportunities to help people navigate changes in their lives. I believe in the importance of connectedness.

Imagine having healthier relationships, balanced emotions, and better boundaries. You might be dealing with problems in your relationships with your spouse, family, or friends. You are a “people pleaser” who can't say no and often puts yourself on the backburner. You may say “I don’t deal well with emotions” or feel like your emotions get the best of you. After a recent life change or relationship issue, such as a difficult marriage, motherhood, or divorce, you may feel like you don’t know who you are any more. Let's find YOU again. If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationships, I am here to help.

I work with adults and adolescents. I specialize in helping individuals and families heal from and cope with the impact of issues like trauma, abuse, grief, loss, adoption, attachment problems, anxiety, depression, life transitions, parenting challenges, family conflict, relationship struggles, and postpartum and women's issues. I believe every client I see is more than their problems or labels. I complete a thorough assessment, so I can customize treatment to meet clients where they are and help them toward their goals. I also create a supportive, non-judgmental atmosphere that allows for reflection and healing.

Not accepting new clients at this time. Life has a way of overwhelming us and convincing us that we are powerless. I seek to work with individuals in life transitions to help them connect with their own agency and combat the lies life tells us. Whether it is anxiety, depression, trauma or grief that has control over you we can work collaboratively to promote change and build healthy relationships/ lifestyles. I work with individuals ages 10 and up who are looking for a non-judgmental environment to uncover their voice/story in order to locate power and meaning.

Are you struggling in your relationships? Having a hard time communicating with others? Do you find yourself stuck in the same patterns with other people? Feeling stressed out, anxious, or depressed because nobody seems to know what you need? If you feel stuck and aren’t sure where to go next – I can help. My focus is improving your relationships and managing anxiety, stress, and mood issues stemming from day-to-day life. We live in the context of our social relationships (family, friends, romantic, etc.), and there is no better way to treat mental health concerns than through a social lens.

Welcoming New Clients. Did you know that if you have ADHD, you are more likely to struggle with anxiety & depression? You may also struggle with relationships, staying on task, managing emotions, and difficulties at work or school. You may feel like you are working against your brain versus with it. Having ADHD and it affecting your life daily feels exhausting. My goal as a therapist is to help you feel empowered throughout the therapeutic process. I approach therapy more as a conversation between the two of us and address any concerns or needs you feel are important. I approach each session with an open mind and without judgment.

Seeking therapy services can often seem like a scary step, but it is also the first step to no longer holding your problems in isolation. As a therapist, I work to create healing relationships with clients by viewing you as the expert of your life. I believe the foundation of our work is one that is collaborative and begins with honoring your experiences and identities. I enjoy helping individuals through a variety of concerns with a particular passion for working through trauma.

You are feeling disorganized, distracted, or confused about life direction and struggling to anchor to a sense of self or personal values. Maybe you are struggling to acknowledge, feel, and express your emotions, and experience yourself shutting down. Or perhaps you are feeling stuck in negative self-talk, often struggling with perfectionistic tendencies and cycles of shame.

If you feel stuck, anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, or apathetic, I am passionate about helping you rediscover purpose and joy in your life. I specialize in addressing anxiety, depression, spiritual questions, and family challenges by not minimizing or ignoring these stressors, but by finding light and purpose in the midst of darkness and uncertainty. I specialize in using a holistic approach to target the root of the problem, which I believe is necessary to enact lasting change and deeper healing.

I am accepting new clients and taking in-network Cigna Insurance. As a former USAF Combat Medic and civilian paramedic with over two decades of experience, I have dedicated my life to serving others in times of crisis. Witnessing the toll that trauma takes on individuals firsthand, I made the profound decision to transition from the front lines of emergency response to the forefront of mental health care. Driven by the loss of my comrades and friends to the silent battles of PTSD, I embarked on a new journey to make a difference in a different capacity.

Accepting new clients! Are you finding you & your partner arguing often, living as roommates, walking on eggshells, or all of the above? This can be very lonely & feel like a great love lost. Avoiding the root of these conflicts can continue negative cycles and lead to resentment, and relationship exhaustion. I use the "gold standard" of couples therapy to help couples understand their pattern of interaction, become aware of how to change it, and begin to cradle each other in conflict instead of turning away.
