Life can feel overwhelming when emotions run deep and relationships become strained. Anxiety, depression, and past wounds can make it hard to connect with others and find peace within yourself. I believe in the healing that happens when we share our stories and experiences with one another in order to grieve the past, accept the present, and voice hope for the future. We will explore how your past impacts your relationships and current life circumstances. I will work with you, your children, or your family to develop coping skills and self-compassion, approaching our work with empathy and care.

Together, we’ll create a compassionate, supportive environment built on a foundation of trust. I help clients navigate life’s complexities, overcome barriers, heal from past wounds, and build a life that feels authentic, empowering, and fulfilling. My ideal clients are individuals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or dissatisfied with where they are in life. They have a sense that something needs to change but aren't sure where to begin or how to move forward. I work best with people who are open to exploring their inner world and are ready to take steps—however small—toward creating a more aligned, fulfilling life.

I see a wide range of clients, although I specialize in relationships, anxiety, frustration, ADHD, and problems with focus and motivation. I see both couples and individuals, as well as adolescents. Counseling focus may include relationship satisfaction, anxiety control, focus and motivational problems with both personal life and work, as well as general ADHD management. I've helped countless clients move from a place of feeling stuck and dissatisfied, to one of happiness and flourishing. I offer both short-term counseling (8-10 weeks) and long-term counseling. I also offer coaching related to focus and motivation.

Do discussions with your partner often lead to yelling or angry silence? Do you find yourselves arguing about the same issues year after year with no resolution? Learn to restore harmony in your home with communication skills that create guardrails for safety (I sometime call them training wheels or bumper pads). When couples feel like they’re walking on eggshells, life feels exhausting. When the best of intentions devolve into disappointment, misunderstanding, and hurt feelings, it might seem like there is no way back to the romantic bond you once enjoyed. It can be done, and together we will plot that course!

Hello! If you're looking for a deeply empathic therapist who is committed to traveling the emotional terrain with you, I'm right here. I have a lot of experience exploring Family of Origin dynamics, supporting those who've been in co-dependent relationships, and who have experienced emotional and/or religious abuse. I understand that life transitions of any kind, even positive ones, can bring up a deep sense of grief, and I am unafraid to wade through that uncertainty and discomfort alongside you.

In working with me, we will explore the many layers of context you inhabit, including primary relationships, community networks, and larger systems that shape your experience. Therapy with me will involve collaboration, connection, and trust as we work together to meet your needs and goals. Particular areas of interest to me are issues pertaining to families of elementary age children, grief and loss, life transitions, and the perinatal period for birthing people.

Life can bring seasons of pain, uncertainty, and heartache. At times, the weight of those experiences can feel overwhelming, especially when isolation, shame, or doubt make the burden even heavier. You don’t have to carry it alone. We are created for connection, support, and healing—and it’s okay to reach out when you need help. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate, faith-centered space where you can explore your experiences, find your footing, and rediscover hope. I believe deeply in reducing the stigma around mental and emotional health. Seeking support is not a sign of weakness or a lack of faith—it’s an act of courage.

Therapy can be a space to slow down, untangle what feels overwhelming, and begin to understand yourself with more clarity and compassion. I support teens and adults who are seeking a life with deeper connection and fulfillment. Anxiety, trauma, depression, and emotional distress can leave you feeling isolated or stuck in patterns that feel hard to shift. You may be navigating a harsh inner voice, struggling with self-esteem or self-doubt, or feeling uncertain about your place in the world. You don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. You can come exactly as you are and be met with care and curiosity.

Hi, I’m so glad you’re here! My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and understood. I’m a practitioner who works with individuals and couples to strengthen relationships, while also providing support to those who are navigating new or difficult chapters in their lives. I was a high school counselor before entering the world of private practice where I guided families through academic stress, identity development, and relationship challenges. This experience has given me a unique perspective on how our early relational patterns and life experiences shape who we become—and how we can learn to grow beyond them.
