It is no easy decision to seek therapy. To look with someone at what hurts. To find hope, relief, and perspective, and to grow through this. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with people in many settings including academic medical hospitals, the VA, college counseling, and an American Indian Reservation. I have extensive experience helping individuals with anxiety, depression, chronic pain, PTSD, and life transitions. No matter what brings you to therapy, my goal is to provide a safe, welcoming space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered.

Trauma and grief are my areas of expertise. If the ways you have been coping no longer work, if pain has shifted into ongoing suffering, or if you feel persistently on edge, stuck, or disconnected from yourself, others, or the world, we may be a good therapy fit.
I take time to understand the nuance of your lived experience and integrate that with my clinical knowledge to help you feel grounded, safe, and understood within sessions. From there, we work intentionally to translate that safety into your relationships, choices, and daily life so change feels both meaningful and sustainable.

I won't just nod and listen; I will actively help you build a toolkit to handle life’s stressors with clarity and confidence.
