As humans, we are wired to seek out pleasurable and passionate experiences, but often in this pursuit, something gets in the way of our enjoyment: shame, stigma, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues...the list goes on. I believe sexuality is a very important part of life, but often we experience mental and emotional struggles associated with who we're having sex with, how often, and how we do it. As a sex-positive and LGBTQIA+ allied counselor, I am passionate about empowering my clients to live their most authentic lives, free of shame, doubt, and the other things that get in the way of our pursuit of pleasure.

It is wonderful to meet you! I am a therapist and social worker. I primarily work with adults struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, grief, parenting struggles, and domestic violence. My approach to therapy is that I truly believe everyone has the ability to heal, but you may have never been given the opportunity or the tools to do so. I also believe that therapy is never a one-size-fits-all. Therapy is a collaborative process in which we work together to find the best way of healing for YOU. Some of the modalities I use to equip my clients to heal include EMDR, CBT, ACT, DBT, and solution-focused therapy.

Whether this is your first time seeking counseling or your 10th time, I hope to encourage and help empower you in your fight to become who you want to be. Whatever next step you decide to take, I hope the best for you.

Whether you are navigating the complexities of religious trauma, narcissistic family dynamics, or the burnout of being a healthcare professional, your struggles are signals—not character flaws. In our work, we’ll go beyond the surface; unlearning rigid expectations of perfection and quieting the voice of shame. When a plant wilts, we don’t blame the plant; we look at the soil, the light, and the water. As a trauma therapist, I help you identify the missing "nutrients" in your life. My goal is that you leave our sessions not just with insight, but with a body that feels like home and a heart that feels seen.

My clients often refer to what I call 'blurry trauma,' early attachment experiences that were less than affirming but so ingrained, the client often doesn't recall outstanding events. They may not even remember much about their childhood at all. That kind of trauma leads to addiction, confusing, disorganized or unfulfilling relationships, and difficulty harnessing the resources needed to navigate change so the client can create their most authentic life and relationships. I use present moment, present location resources such as the client's own strengths, passions, and ability to make creative decisions to facilitate safe change.

Our collective struggle is that we have inherited a world of imbalance and as such, imbalance lives within each of us. It is my belief that healing is done in community, and that true change can only occur in the space between individuals. Together, we will work to find equilibrium and healing amongst the madness. It is my goal to help clients develop and hone the best version of themselves according to their own vision. Through the integration of movement and the expressive arts, I seek to assist clients in rewriting their narratives in a way that embodies dignity and strength.
