I understand that the difficulties of life can cause us to feel overwhelmed, stuck, or hopeless about the future. Honest and direct communication is the most effective way to assist others in overcoming the barriers that keep them from being who they want to be. I believe we are capable of creating significant change in our lives and relationships when we have the right support and counsel. I will help you gain insight into the patterns in your life that cause suffering, and to develop and execute a plan to address these issues to create your version of a “life worth living”.

Are you caught in a cycle of anxious thoughts, avoidance, and the quiet dread that things will never change? Whether you're managing OCD, social anxiety, or the kind of persistent worry that follows you everywhere, you deserve more than white-knuckling through another day. You don't need to have it all figured out to start — you just need to be willing. I'll meet you exactly where you are, with warmth, a clear game plan, and the occasional laugh along the way.

My ideal clients are adults or couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, or life transitions—whether it’s a career shift, relationship change, or simply feeling stuck in their life choices. They often want to understand themselves better, develop healthier coping strategies, and regain a sense of control and peace. Many of my clients appear to “have it all together” on the outside but feel overwhelmed or unfulfilled on the inside. They’re ready for a safe space to pause, reflect, and create meaningful change in their lives.

There's an exhaustion and isolation that often come with mental health struggles. It’s easy to feel trapped in a cycle, both yearning for change and fearing it – especially when the cycle involves suicidal thoughts, self-harm, addiction, or the lingering effects of trauma. They all become ingrained in one's identity, making the idea of letting go terrifying. I want people to know, though, that there's more to them than their pain or their past. I’m here to help them reconnect with their resilience, their values, and their empowerment that is often hidden beneath depression, anxiety, emotional distress, or trauma.

Therapy is an active process. Together, we will establish clear goals, challenge unhelpful patterns, and develop practical skills that empower you to manage life’s challenges with increased confidence and clarity. In our work together, you can expect a supportive, open, and non-judgmental space. I will provide structure, tools, and compassionate guidance, while you contribute your experiences, willingness to engage, and courage to grow.

I believe every person has the capacity to grow, heal, and create a life worth living. Sometimes we simply need someone to walk alongside us while we find our footing again. I want to help those who want to help themselves. I can provide my clients with many tools but they have show up ready to put in the work; ultimately it will be worth much more when they did it themselves. I've seen clients from as young as 5 years old to 70 years of age. Over the past ten years I have been working all sorts of populations, most recently the military population, active duty, veterans, couples, and families.

In my more than a decade of counseling, I’ve frequently heard, “You’re the first person I’ve ever told that too” or “I’ve been too afraid to admit that until now”. It is after these freeing moments that the real work begins. One of the best things about counseling is that it provides a safe place where the truth can be told! If you are afraid to speak your truth, to be honest about your feelings, or to just keep it real, it impedes the healing process. I like asking the hard questions, guiding my clients through having the hard conversations and motivating them to make the hard decisions. Let's talk about the truth!

I help women build resilience to weather the storms of life with grace and strength. I know the importance of being able to bounce back from loss, disappointment, or crisis. As a therapist who works with women stung and damaged by all sorts of life events, I believe that resilience is one of the single most important qualities that enables us to bounce back from the edge. Resilience allows us to find our strength in adverse circumstances. It requires a willingness to fall apart for a time and get in touch with our pain. There is much healing that can be accomplished by getting to know yourself at your rawest and darkest times.

When I picture my ideal client, I think of you. You might feel stuck, anxious, unhappy, numb, or disconnected. Maybe you feel scared or ashamed of something that has happened to you or something you’ve never discussed with anyone. Perhaps you have thought about therapy before, or someone recommended it, but you never pursued it. But now, you show up and that is the first step. You are beginning to be honest with and trust yourself, me, and this process. You want to feel better, more connected, and begin to live your life again. I have good news: With a little courage, a willingness to try new things, and a little support, you can!
