You are constantly exhausted from putting too much on your plate, yet you keep saying yes when you desperately want to say no. On the outside, you keep everything moving. On the inside, you are stuck in a cycle of anxiety, self-doubt, and people-pleasing. You second-guess your decisions, constantly look for reassurance, and feel entirely disconnected from your own feelings. You’ve conditioned yourself to believe that resting equals being lazy, so you just keep your head down and keep grinding but in reality you are running on empty.

I carry a calm, supportive energy that allows you to show up as who you are, with all of the challenges that you have been carrying. However, these challenges do not necessarily define us when we are given the choice of what to embrace and of which we would like to let go. You have made the first step so far, which is taking the courage to reach out. I approach counseling from a resilience and strength-based lens, which not only aims to help you uncover the barriers that you have been carrying, but also envisions the many places of empowerment that your strength and resilience can be manifested. Welcome to my space.

My passion is to help teens find their voice by empowering them to take control of their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I also enjoy partnering with parents to form stronger relationships with their children. I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience working with kids and teens. I specialize in girls and nonbinary folks ages 10-21 who have experienced trauma. If your teen or child has symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder, I will work with them using Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and mindfulness coping techniques to reduce those symptoms.

I work with individuals (ages 19–80) who are navigating a wide range of emotional and relational challenges. This often includes healing relational wounds, working with anxiety, complex trauma, and shifting out of insecure attachment patterns. I additionally have a passion for helping parents and birthing people through emotional intensity, identity shifts, and the generational patterns that tend to surface as we parent—particularly when external systems feel strained or unsupportive.

We humans are relational beings and our greatest capacity for healing and growth can be found in the community we build with one another. I believe that many of the challenges we face today are framed by the dominant culture as shortcomings within ourselves, when in reality systems of oppression keep us from accessing the resources and relationships that would allow us to thrive. I work with every individual to develop a therapeutic plan that meets your unique needs and goals, believing that you are the expert on your own life. Together we will explore what is necessary for you to create a fully embodied life of thriving.

Therapy works best when it feels like a genuine human connection. My goal is to create a space where you feel accepted, understood, and comfortable showing up exactly as you are. You are the expert on your experiences and therapy is a collaborative process where we work together to better understand what's going on and identify what might help. I enjoy working with teens and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, dissociation, self-harm, identity exploration, and life transitions. As an LGBTQ+ and neurodiversity affirming therapist, I am committed to providing a safe, non-judgmental environment for self-exploration.

Sometimes the closer you are to a problem, the harder it is to see. Unfortunately an inevitability of life is we can’t have all of the answers. As a clinical intern, I see this as an opportunity for us to embark on a journey together to find some solutions. I love working with many different kinds of clients. But I’m passionate about representing communities that don’t have a strong voice in the mental health space. Some of these populations are emergency responders, police officers, firefighters, nurses and many more. Mental health is not something we have to deal with alone; together we can find new ways of being in the world.
