The past shapes us, but it doesn’t have to define us. Many people carry painful or difficult experiences that may show up as anxiety, depression, challenges in relationships, substance use, or a mix of struggles. Whether you’ve faced trauma, loss, or other hardships, these experiences are part of your story—but they are not the whole story. Together, we can work to uncover your inner strengths and create a path forward. My goal is to support you in building resilience, finding purpose, and creating a future that feels meaningful and uniquely yours.
My specialty is supporting first responders, healthcare professionals, veterans, and others who carry the invisible weight of difficult experiences. With a blend of professional training and firsthand perspective, I offer a space where you don’t have to explain the culture, the humor, or the unspoken realities of the job—I get it.
I draw on evidence-based approaches to help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and the aftereffects of trauma. At the same time, I believe therapy is more than symptom management—it’s about reconnecting with your strengths, finding meaning, and moving forward in a way that feels authentic to you.
