Maybe you've been overwhelmed for a while, or just not like yourself lately. You want to feel better, but feel held back by anxious thoughts and emotions that are hard to manage. Sometimes in life, we get stuck, reliving a difficult past or worried about an uncertain future. I like to help people get back to living in the present. Maybe that's by processing through parts of your story, learning to cope with anxiety, or having someone alongside you as you navigate big life changes. It may look like letting go of shame, or gaining new perspectives on yourself and your relationships. We can work through it together at your pace.

Are you autistic? LGBTQ+? Looking to process trauma or work on a relationship? If so, I might be the right therapist for you. With me you’ll be met with compassion and a place to safely be yourself. Developing an understanding of your life context can be empowering. In my experience, many therapeutic issues show up at the intersection of capitalism, colonialism, and patriarchy. With me, therapy is a safe place to deconstruct these forces and to explore who you want to be within your context. Therapy can be really hard and really worth it. I’m here to make sure you have someone with you on your journey who cares.

I believe that people are strong and have the ability and resiliency to do incredible things. Life is full of challenges that can be difficult to overcome. It is my desire to help individuals find or renew their own strengths to overcome any challenge that they may face. Life doesn't get easier or more forgiving, we get stronger and more resilient as we overcome the challenges we face. My therapeutic approach to mental health treatment is that every individual is deserving of respect and having a strong sense of self-worth. Everyone deserves a happy and meaningful life.

For anyone in this day and age, there are struggles both visible and invisible that we all experience and need help with.

I believe that everyone can benefit from therapy. The ability to talk to an objective and supportive person who isn’t attached to your everyday life has value because they can help guide you through your life and offer perspective in areas that maybe weren’t clear to you. Seeking help from therapy is like getting help with your broken car. Sure you could probably watch a YouTube video on how to fix the car, but why not take it to an expert who is trained on how to fix cars. The same thing goes for mental health. Life has so many ups and downs, so why not seek help from someone who is trained to help people navigate that journey.

You’ve spent your whole life feeling “too much,” “not enough,” or just different — and you’re exhausted from trying to hold it all together.
If you’re neurodivergent, living with ADHD, navigating life as LGBTQ+, or struggling with pornography addiction, anxiety, or depression, you may feel misunderstood—even by therapists. Maybe you’ve been told to “just try harder,” “pray more,” “focus,” or “have more self-control.” Maybe you’re carrying shame that doesn’t even belong to you.
You don’t need another person judging you.
You need someone who gets it.

As a clinician I work to help those who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves and are quietly wondering, “Why is this so hard for me?” They may be navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, autism, emotional dysregulation, or addiction, or they may simply feel lost in relationships, identity, or life transitions. They are those who are doing their best to function day to day while carrying emotional weight they don’t fully understand or know how to release.

Courage is a defining characteristic of all those that are willing to come to counseling to address their challenges. Those challenges can be particularly difficult to sort through. I see myself as a fellow traveler who you allow to be a part of your journey. Together we try exploring the best solutions to navigate your problems. Clients usually appreciate my fun and supportive nature as we work together to achieve your goals. A high priority of mine is working with people in rural communities.
