My clients range from adults managing everyday stress to those with complex forensic histories, such as formerly incarcerated individuals, justice-involved populations, and people struggling with problematic sexual behaviors. I also work with couples and individuals in LGBTQIA+ and nontraditional relationships. What they share: feeling stuck in repeating patterns that insight alone hasn't changed. With a background in forensic mental health and victimology, I'm comfortable confronting issues that many clinicians are not. I am proudly gender-affirming and identity-affirming.

You might feel stuck in patterns of overthinking, second-guessing, or feeling out of control in certain areas of your life, even when you’re doing everything “right.” You may be used to pushing through or holding yourself to high standards, but are starting to feel overwhelmed, burnt out, or unsure how to move forward. Many of my clients want a more sustainable way to manage emotions, feel steadier, and make changes that last. I also support clients navigating health and body changes, including GLP-1 use, appetite shifts, eating patterns, and body image, while building a more flexible and sustainable relationship with food and self.

I offer individual, couples, and group therapy. In addition to ameliorating symptoms, decreasing emotional pain, and helping to solve difficult problems, experiential therapy, along with mindfulness and somatic awareness can facilitate significant personal growth and increased wellness. My approach is broadly humanistic, meaning we seek together in a safe and secure environment, mutual understanding of you as a whole person, honing your internal "voice" and tapping into your existing strengths. Once we identify who you really are inside and what is most important to you, the path to bringing your life into alignment becomes clearer.

Trauma impacts every part of us - mind, body, spirit. It can show up as hypervigilance, isolation, panic, guilt, and shame, all of which interfere with our ability to interact with ourselves, other people, and the world around us. I have worked with complex trauma since starting my career and frequently engage in training opportunities to continue learning more and more! My primary area of specialty is working with survivors of sexual and domestic violence in both childhood and adulthood, but I have worked with a variety of trauma backgrounds. I am also experienced working with anxiety, depression, BPD, and neurodivergence.
