Life is a storm. We will bask in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. Whether we are besieged by feelings we don’t understand, are held captive by doubts we just can’t seem to overcome, or are enduring a life transition that shatters all we thought was true about the world, there are few things as destabilizing. It is natural in those circumstances to experience stress, depression, despair, anxiety, and anger. As we wrestle with those feelings, we may wonder if they are our new normal. My response to that question is no. We can find peace, meaning, and balance.

In my mind, the ideal client is someone who has recognized that some aspect of their life is no longer working and is ready to take steps to restore balance. This person is seeking help to get their life back on track. I enjoy working with a variety of clients, including individuals, couples, and families. The people who seek counseling to validate that change is necessary, and who desire professional guidance to collaborate in identifying their natural strengths (or at least their potential capabilities) to overcome difficulties, tend to be goal-oriented. These clients are especially exciting to work with and a safe space to be in.

Are you tired of feeling stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed by the weight of past experiences?
Do fears, mental health challenges, or a history of trauma hold you back from living the life you desire? Trauma touches all of us in different ways, often leaving us feeling invisible, unheard, or fragmented.
I know this journey all too well. As a child, my family fled our home as refugees, navigating life in unfamiliar places. These experiences shaped my understanding of pain, resilience, and the deep need to feel seen and heard.
Choosing the right therapist is a significant step in your healing process.

My 10 years as a therapist have exposed me to a variety of challenges from deescalating unsafe situations to mediating complex relationship barriers. In my experience trauma can often be found at the core of depression, anxiety, family/spouse conflict, disordered eating, sexual confusion and addiction. All of these challenges can create a sense of feeling stuck, unfulfilled and alone. In some cases, these struggles can be intimidating to address without help. My belief is that therapy acts as a safe place for you to address those struggles in an empowering way; one that gives a sense of purpose, and leaves you feeling connected.

All are welcome! I work the most with individuals and couples that are navigating multiple intersecting identities and mental health concerns. As a trans veteran, I find it easy to connect with members of the LGBTQ and veteran communities. I can help members navigate life and the nuances that come with those identities by drawing on experience, training, and education. Clients often find that not having to explain things that feel basic really makes therapy accessible. This baseline can help the navigation of trauma and PTSD to feel less dark and lonely.
