What if therapy actually felt like talking to someone who gets it?
Not awkward silences. Not repeating your story for the tenth time. Not feeling like a case file.
Just a real conversation with someone in your corner.
That's what I try to create. I work with people who've had a hard time connecting in therapy, whether you tend to shut down, don't trust easily, or just haven't found the right fit. My clients often say they're surprised how comfortable they feel, and how fast the time goes. That's not an accident. I believe the relationship is the foundation. Everything else builds from there.

My work is focused on all types of addictive behaviors, especially the use and abuse of substances. An Addiction is simply the use of something outside of ourselves to change the way we feel inside. I help individuals cope with their Addiction and Co-Occurring Disorders by using an eclectic array of theories. CBT and EMDR are extremely effective in treating addiction disorders, but I use whatever techniques are required to help individuals overcome their addiction and face the underlying issues that are being medicated by their behaviors. I received a Masters in Community and Addictions Counseling from William & Mary in 2000.

Is your child struggling? Is your relationship feeling disconnected?
The meltdowns, the anxiety, the behaviors that leave you exhausted. Or maybe it's the distance between you and your partner. Two people in the same house feeling miles apart. You know something needs to change, but you're tired of navigating it alone.
My approach is quiet and steady. I create a low-pressure space where children and couples can ease into the process without feeling overwhelmed or put on the spot. For children who shut down with big personalities or clients who've felt steamrolled in therapy before, I use a calm, low pressure approach.

You look like you’re holding it together — but inside, it feels heavy. Maybe you’re overwhelmed, anxious, burned out, or stuck in patterns that won’t change. You manage life on the outside, yet something feels off. I work with people ready for clarity, relief, and real growth. Therapy isn’t about fixing you — you’re not broken. It’s about understanding yourself deeply, building practical tools, and creating meaningful change so life feels lighter, steadier, and authentically yours.

Something I learned early in my career, back when I was working in child welfare as a CPS worker, is that people are far more resilient than they give themselves credit for. Even in the hardest, messiest, most overwhelming seasons of life, there is strength in you. Sometimes you just need someone to help you find it again.
That belief is at the center of everything I do. I work with adults, young adults, teens, and children who may be carrying trauma, anxiety, depression, big life changes, and the kind of self-doubt that makes it hard to move forward. I’ve also spent time supporting military-connected families.

You’ve carried a lot — for your family, your partner, your community — but lately, it might feel like there’s little energy left for yourself. Whether you’re navigating military life, relationship strain, or personal challenges, you don’t have to face it alone.

My path to this work began with my own healing journey and a deep calling to help others access the tools they already carry within themselves. I began my career supporting clients as a life coach 10 years ago, guiding people through transitions, self-discovery, and personal growth. In work with me, individuals move beyond symptom relief toward genuine transformation. My integrative approach weaves together somatic therapy, mindfulness-based practices, attachment theory, and parts work to address the roots of nervous system dysregulation, trauma, chronic pain, and low self-worth. I believe the body holds profound emotional intelect.

You don’t have to keep carrying everything on your own. Lately, the weight of anxiety, burnout, or a major life transition might feel like too much.

From the outside, things might look fine, but inside you feel stuck and unsure how to move forward. I'll work with you to help you move from just surviving to actually feeling like yourself again. Therapy can be a place to finally exhale and make sense of what you are going through

Feeling anxious or depressed is a reasonable response to living in an uncertain world. For many of us, recent years have brought loss and trauma. It may feel like you will never heal. Learning to cope and adapt may feel overwhelming. You want to be your "old self again," but it feels impossible. You may have tried to heal yourself, only to realize you need help. You may hesitate to seek help for fear of being judged. You may feel that you are alone in your struggles, but I want you to know that you are not alone. There is hope.
