Are you facing a new or ongoing medical or mental health diagnosis, or caring for someone who is? Life transitions are HARD, and mixed emotions are normal. I work w/ adults and older adults navigating healthcare changes, aging, reproductive journeys, and shifting identities. Whether you're moving through pregnancy, loss, parenting, perimenopause/menopause, being child-free by choice, or making sense of altered states from psychosis, bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia, you deserve a safe, nonjudgmental space. I believe in the power of collaboration and curiosity, bringing both your lived experience and my clinical skills in the room.

If you’ve landed here, you may be feeling stuck or tired of carrying so much on your own. You might be functioning on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or not quite like yourself on the inside. You may be noticing patterns you can’t seem to break, old family dynamics showing up in your relationships, or the feeling that you’re always the strong one, the responsible one, the fixer, or the one who stays quiet to keep the peace. Often those roles started long ago, and therapy can help you understand what you learned to carry, what you learned to silence, and what you needed to do to feel safe and loved.

Are you intuitive, sensitive, and often overwhelmed by emotions or life transitions? Do you feel stuck in old relational patterns, disconnected from your voice, or weighed down by anxiety, grief, or inherited family dynamics? Are you seeking more than symptom relief, such as clarity, healing, and alignment with your true self? Deep down, do you want to feel grounded, seen, and free to live authentically, embodied, and whole?

Therapy for anyone who hates small talk but loves real talk. Let’s have honest conversations that actually help you feel better! What are you looking for in a therapist (aside from their experience/therapy focus)? For me, it starts with the relationship, the vibe, the energy - which is tough to convey in a Psych Today profile or website. I offer a complimentary 30 minute in-office consultation for prospective clients who would feel more comfortable actually meeting before working together. Whether you prefer virtual appointments or plan to attend sessions in person; come meet me, see the space and ask any questions you may have.
