Therapy often requires a lot of hard work, but I have found plenty of space for laughter and light-heartedness along the way! I work with adults in any stage of life, and have a passion for working with teenagers whether they require someone to listen and help them process their thoughts or need tools and guidance to navigate complex situations. I will always provide validation and support, but I can also deliver direct and honest feedback when necessary. My focus is on understanding where you currently are and where you want to go, without judgment.

The human mind can get stuck in negative emotions, beliefs, and other patterns which make it feel impossible to move forward in life. I specialize in interventions (particularly EMDR, ACT, hyponsis, and BWRT) that enable the mind to let release old patterns quickly and often permanently. I specialize in treating trauma and anxiety. But these same interventions work wonders with addictions, depression, and other serious problems.

Sleepless nights, constant reassurance-seeking, stomachaches before school, and "what if" questions that never seem to end—it is exhausting to watch your child struggle with anxiety. As a parent, you find yourself trying to navigate their fears but there is no magic switch to turn off their worry. Meanwhile, your child is missing out. One day they seem brave; the next, a small change in routine leads to a total shutdown. It’s painful to see your bright, curious child become paralyzed by a world that feels unsafe. You want them to feel confident and free, but right now, it feels like anxiety is the one calling the shots.

You replay conversations in your head for hours. "Why did I say that?" "What did they mean by..." "I should have said this, instead."

Anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or past experiences keep pulling you off course.

It’s collaborative, focused, and built to help you move forward with clarity and direction.
