I am passionate about supporting mothers- whether you are just beginning your journey into parenthood, navigating the challenges of being postpartum, expanding your family, or simply struggling with the daily grind of being a parent, you are not alone! As a mother of two, I understand how isolating and difficult parenting can be- but also how rewarding and transformative. I will provide a warm, non judgmental space where you can explore the full range of emotions and experiences that motherhood can bring up.

Depression, anxiety, and despair invite us to seek out deeper connections and growth. The intimacy that develops in the therapeutic relationship is different from what passes for communication in most peoples' daily lives. In the I and Thou, of genuine therapy, there is no barrier. The goal is to be able to totally see and to be seen. Pretense, persona, the need to impress, many aspects of false perception all fall away. There are no barriers. It is a way of healing soul sickness that is challenging to both therapist and patient while at the same time being effective and fulfilling.

Life is challenging, and I believe humans were never meant to face life's challenges alone. I work with clients who are open to exploring how childhood experiences, relationships, trauma, and deeply rooted beliefs shape their inner world. Many are navigating anxiety, depression, sleep disturbance, relationship concerns, identity exploration, or major life transitions. I have over 7 years of experience working with adult survivors of domestic and sexual violence. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore patterns and emotions. I also enjoy with young adults and individuals who feel “stuck” despite wanting change.

People don’t usually come to me because they feel anxious or stressed. They come after discovering infidelity, compulsive sexual behavior, or repeated breaches of trust—and their sense of reality has been shaken.

You may be questioning your judgment, your relationship, and yourself, while still trying to hold everything together.

Are you in a tough spot or struggling? No matter what you are going through, therapy is a valuable place to get support, work towards making a change, and create a better understanding of oneself. I believe that therapy can be a beneficial experience for anyone as it provides a safe space to process feelings/stressors and to be heard and understood. My approach to therapy is grounded in relational theory - focusing on the therapeutic connection between an individual and their therapist - as this is one of the best predictors of progress and improvement over the course of therapy.
