Life is hard. Sometimes life is harder than what we’re equipped for. When that happens, seeking help can be daunting, and finding a therapist who’s a good fit even harder. While I can’t magically make everything better or brighter, I will sit in and walk through the darkness with you until we make it to the light. I have experience working with individuals who are dealing with trauma, depression, self-harm, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, and identity crisis. My areas of particular focus are sexual trauma, emotional abuse, suicidal ideation, self-harm, attachment issues, depression, PTSD, and those dark night-of-the-soul times.

Help clients presenting with sexual, physical, and emotional trauma, neglect, abandonment, inner child wounds, grief, depression, anxiety, infidelity (affair recovery/betrayal), codependency, interfaith relationships, self-esteem issues, adult survivors of sexual trauma, communication problems, sexless marriages (fostering feelings of rejection, resentment, frustration, loneliness, and ultimately emotional disconnect/distancing), 'roommate syndrome.' I also work with those experiencing sexual issues that lead to performance anxiety, low desire, mismatch in physical/sexual intimacy between partners, ED, etc
