I have been on my own recovery journey for anxiety, depression and trauma related symptoms and my goal is to provide support, tools and concepts to facilitate changes which can lead to a life where you can thrive instead of just survive. I have been in the field of social work for 30+ years and in the mental health, clinical field for 12+ years. I am an artist, a writer and an avid cat lover. I am married to my husband of 6+ years and we recently moved from Florida to Ohio to be near his family.

My practice is a sanctuary where the tender work of becoming whole unfolds, where the fragments of your stories find their way back to each other through patience, presence, and profound witnessing. For fourteen years, I have walked alongside souls brave enough to turn toward their wounds, to befriend their exiled parts, and to discover that healing lives in the very places that have been abandoned. I hold space for your relationships, those you tend with others and the one you cultivate within. Through parts work, you learn to welcome home every aspect of self, even those long shadowed by shame or silence.

You find yourself feeling too much and not enough all at once. You feel stuck. Maybe even broken. Have you ever asked yourself, “Why can’t I just be normal,” or “What is wrong with me?” Sometimes you behave in ways that don’t feel true to yourself or aligned with who you want to be. You fear rejection. You often end up in unhealthy or one-sided relationships. I believe that just by coming to this page there is something fundamentally “right,” not “wrong" with you. Being human is complicated, messy, and can be painful; I feel honored to have the opportunity to support you through challenges in a way that fosters healing and change.

Life can be challenging. At times, it may leave you feeling anxious, depressed, or simply overwhelmed. You’re doing your best to hold things together, but with so many changes and transitions, it’s easy to lose your footing. Maybe you’re unsure where to turn. Perhaps you’ve experienced a trauma that still lingers, or you’re struggling to find joy in the things that once brought you peace. You might feel constantly worried or weighed down by life’s complications. You don’t have to face it alone — help is available.

Relationships are hard, I won't judge you or your loved ones. Let's work together to find a path to a deeper and more fulfilling connection. I specialize in working with couples and polycules facing a variety of issues. I am comfortable working with conflict and I would love to be invited in to that argument that always turns out nasty. I've helped people let go of resentment, understand the impact of their childhood trauma, learn to communicate better, and find a way to stop fighting so much with the people they love the most. With accountability, love, and dedication, you can get through this. I can help.

Moving forward or backward equally unsatisfying? Anxious or depressed? Relationship or family issues? Feeling lost or unable to navigate the avenues between yourself and others? There is a solution and that solution always involves change. That’s good news because none of us can hope to change others, but we have the power to change ourselves, the way we think, the way we feel and act. That’s why the decision to enter into therapy is a courageous one. You’ve come this far: that says you’re serious about wanting a better life! I have a deep and heartfelt interest in walking the corridors of life with you. I am reaching out to you.

I work with LGBTQIA2S+ adults (couples, families, and individuals) navigating trauma, identity, neurodivergence, and major life transitions—especially folks impacted by systems like foster care, housing instability, or healthcare. They may feel guarded, burned out, or unsure who to trust, but want to better understand themselves and create meaningful change. They’re looking for a therapist who moves at their pace, honors their autonomy, and offers a collaborative, nonjudgmental space to heal and grow.

You are each a unique individual and have within you great potential to make desired changes in your life.
