I work best with clients who want to explore how their patterns began and are commited to feeling better. I have training in Somatic Experiencing and Inner Child Work as well as experience working in residential and out-patient Eating Disorder Treatment.

One of my greatest passions involves helping people through various transitions of life. I offer therapy for Grief, Loss, Substance Use Disorders, Trauma, Behavioral Addictions, and Spiritual Direction. I believe our mental health is intricately connected to our emotional and spiritual well-being. There are times we find ourselves choosing unhealthy coping tools to redirect self-defeating, self-loathing, and self-sabotaging thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Through a multi-disciplined approach I'll help you identify those negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and reconnect to the emotions you've grown numb to.

Uncovering your most authentic self can be a lonely process. At first, you may not be sure who to turn to or who to ask for support. Whether you are coming to terms with a new gender identity or sexuality, how a past event has shaped you, or a new challenge in your life that is stopping you in your tracks, navigating these changes by yourself can be difficult.

You’ve done all the right things - held it together, pushed through, kept busy - but deep down, something still hurts.

Together, we create a space to explore the deeper roots of your pain with patience, warmth, and curiosity.

Learning how to heal from trauma you have experienced as a child and adult can have a very positive impact on your life. I am looking for clients that are ready to discover how the trauma they have experienced affects them, how to develop healthy coping skills, how to learn how to develop and maintain healthy relationships, and how to regain a sense of security within themselves.

Progress is made in the struggle; if we’re not struggling, we’re stagnant. People are inherently resilient and resourceful, but sometimes we bump up against something that leaves us feeling stuck or disconnected. If you have found yourself reading this, perhaps you’re tired of feeling “stagnant” or you feel ready to wrestle with the issues bringing you to therapy. I am dedicated to assisting my clients in navigating trauma, family of origin issues, eating disorders, body image concerns, and depression and anxiety. I also enjoy working with first responders and their families, and neurodivergent individuals!

I began practicing outpatient mental health in 2010 working with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, co-occurring substance use, trauma and borderline personality disorder. Clients often want to feel better, and I enjoy coming alongside to understand what feeling better means for each person, what are their hopes and dreams, and how can we partner together to achieve those dreams. Sometimes, that means needing to heal from past hurts. Sometimes that means learning how to navigate shame, anxiety, depression that keeps one in bed, or anger that comes out in unhelpful ways.
