Sports psychology (equestrian sports in particular), infertility, anxiety, narcissistic abuse recovery, trauma, and executive or entrepreneur coaching are special interests.
Are you in an unhealthy relationship? Is it hard for you to set boundaries? Do you have difficulty making decisions? Doubting yourself or feeling like an imposter can make tough times (and decisions) even tougher. I can help you explore and develop a greater understanding and appreciation of your authentic self. Our bodies do keep the score, so it’s vital to connect mind and body. Unprocessed trauma can block that connection. Once our nervous system is regulated, everything seems to fall into place: Anxiety decreases, as does pain perception, while resilience is strengthened and cognitive and creative capabilities are enhanced.

Sometimes a person experiences life events that bring up distressing symptoms experienced in both mind and body that prevent functioning or the ability to move forward towards goals and dreams. Often these distressing symptoms are tied to past trauma that will continue to hold that person back unless the trauma is identified and healed. Often clients report symptoms of anxiety and/or depression that are resistant to medications, and experience emotional overwhelm that interferes with their functioning.

Are you the one everyone counts on—The good child/spouse/parent? The dependable one. The strong one. The one who keeps everything running. From the outside, your life may look stable, responsible, even admirable. You handle things. You show up. You take care of everyone else. But inside, you might feel exhausted, overwhelmed, or quietly disconnected from yourself. Maybe you’ve noticed you’re repeating the same painful patterns in your relationships—the same arguments, the same reactions, the same dynamics that once hurt you—and you find yourself asking, Why do I keep doing this? without knowing how to change it.

I will be on maternity leave mid June through October 5, 2026.
Therapy is about finding healing - it is a space for rectifying our past with our present. What happened before with who we are today. When that reconciliation happens, we find healing and begin to walk in freedom. My purpose is to help you do exactly that. And it starts with you feeling seen and known. When you walk into my office, you will find a welcoming, safe, relaxed environment, and, hopefully, you will feel at home. As your therapist, my goal will be to help you navigate how to walk in true authenticity towards who you are meant to be.

My specialties include abuse, sexual assault, and medical and healthcare trauma, and my role is to help you find “aha moments,” flashes of realization that what you already know can change your overall and daily life.
Openings & sliding fee available - Relationships with ourselves, our bodies, and with others may be complex, nuanced, and hard to explain. We may keep parts of us private and avoid invalidation. We may even feel like loving relationships are hard to come by. At times, our minds may be playing familiar tunes: I’m unlovable, I cause problems, I don’t matter, I can’t trust others/myself, or I’m not enough. Even with validation, change may feel elusive. Therapy can lead to hope and sustainable transformation. It can help with changing patterns, boundaries, self-compassion, ending power struggles, trust, and reimagining the future.

Domestic Abuse Therapists
What are the most effective ways to recover from domestic abuse?
Leaving an abusive relationship requires tremendous courage, so survivors in treatment should recognize that they have already completed the most important step. Still, the trauma of physical or emotional abuse can be difficult to process and overcome. Therapy can help survivors process trauma, grief, and difficult emotions, treat relevant mental health symptoms, and create a new framework for boundaries and relationships in the future. For some, support groups can also be an invaluable outlet for healing.
When should an individual seek help for domestic abuse?
Victims of intimate partner violence should seek help immediately. It can take substantial time, planning, energy, and courage to leave an abusive relationship, but starting the process—by seeking therapy, calling the domestic violence hotline, or simply confiding in a loved one—will help them get there. Those who have left abusive relationships but haven’t sought treatment can also greatly benefit from therapy to process and heal from the experience.
What are the consequences of staying in an abusive relationship?
Remaining in an abusive relationship has serious repercussions. In addition to the ongoing threat of physical danger and emotional abuse, research shows that intimate partner violence is associated with a range of mental health disorders including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and substance abuse. Therefore it’s important for individuals in an abusive relationship to seek help as soon as possible.
How can you get domestic abuse treatment for someone else?
It can be very complicated to identify and leave an abusive relationship; barriers include the threat of violence, financial instability, and family pressures. Those concerned about a loved one in an abusive relationship should talk to them about the situation, provide them with resources such as the domestic violence hotline, and introduce the idea of seeing a therapist due to their concern for the person’s safety and well-being.
