Do you feel disconnected from life, from yourself and possibly from others? Is there panic, anxiety, depression, confusion, loss, overwhelm, or numbness? These can all feel like powerful forces separating you from the vibrant and productive life you imagine is possible. I can help! My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where my clients can work through challenges and gain a deeper understanding of themselves. In therapy, I utilize a variety of evidence-based techniques, including cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions.

You and your story deserve to be heard - in a safe, supportive environment, and on your terms. Many of my clients have been trying to figure out their place in the world. It could be from undiagnosed neurodivergence (ADHD/Autism), coming into your sexuality or gender, feeling like your life is moving in a different direction than your upbringing, or even that some negative experiences (past or present) are keeping you separate from those around you.

Have you ever thought about your life as it relates to the happiness you experience rather than the problems that plague you? Let me help you sort those issues out, whether they involve moving past trauma or substance abuse or just developing a more balanced life, letting go of people pleasing behavior or learning to set boundaries. I bring life experience along with education and 5 years treating those with severe and persistent mental illness. I would like to help you open your heart to healing and begin to experience some peace and happiness in your life.
