Even the most self-aware humans can experience periods of confusion, stuckness, and destabilization, and oftentimes suffering has unconscious roots. I've dedicated my training and education as a helping professional to learn how to unlock messages from the unconscious to promote healing and well-being. I also strive to arm my clients with concrete tools to use independently, long after our work together is completed. I have many years of experience helping people heal, blending a variety of nontraditional and expressive therapeutic approaches with evidence-based interventions to meet the individual needs of the people I serve.

I work with teens, young adult, and adult individuals, and families who want to deepen their emotional connection to self and others! If you find yourself stuck in patterns of overthinking, confusion, exhaustion from your daily stressors, and wanting to explore change, you're not alone. I work to support navigating these experiences by processing and grounding to create individual pathways towards your wellness goals. In therapy with me, you can expect to have a balance of humor, candidness, emotional processing and support, and skill building.

I work with adolescents, adults, and families who are struggling with a variety of mental health, substance use, and existential problems. The people I work with, regardless of life stage, are often looking to reduce their suffering and increase their sense of meaning and purpose. My first priority is to establish trust and help create a relationship that is both safe and honest.

My work with clients focuses on understanding somatic experiences and how our bodies continue to hold onto stressors and traumas. I strive to collaboratively explore what lies beneath the present moment experience and undercover ways that the mind and body are connected to fuel both emotional and physical pain. In my experience, the use of skills in the short-term can decrease immediate pain and open the door to a deeper exploration of what we all need to lead more authentically engaged lives. Through the use of attachment and connection, I work with clients to shift patterns and build the life they want.

One of my favorite mantras is "I can only get better when I accept myself as I am, where I have been, and where I am going!" I am passionate in my work. One of my main goals is to see you thrive. I want to aid you in your journey to better mental health. My therapeutic style is very laid back, and you will be the driving for in your treatment.

Welcome! Counseling offers a safe, nonjudgmental, space for exploring the psyche, finding meaning in challenging life events, and experiencing a sense of hope. The counseling process can be creative and exciting, and at times, it can be difficult. I seek to be open, supportive, curious, and responsive to my clients as they navigate their journey. I lean toward a psychodynamic psychotherapy model, exploring how our attachment styles, family stories, coping mechanisms, and unconscious layers of thoughts and feelings influence our present day life.

I hold a core belief that no one wants to be "bad" or do "bad." Keeping this in mind, I prefer to highlight strengths and focus on how we grow and learn in those challenging moments. My clients are in the driver's seat and they determine who is in the car, where the destination is, and how we are going to get there. My role is to help navigate the road ahead, process through things that have steered you off course, and help you get to your therapeutic destination safely. I love to find moments of humor and connection, but I am also prepared to sit with my clients in their moments of pain, processing and healing.

I have worked with children, adolescents, teens, and adults in various settings including summer camps, therapeutic boarding schools, and residential rehabilitation. This has allowed a wide breadth of experience in areas from supporting children and adolescents as they embark through developmental stages, as well as teens and adults as they learn, grow, heal and empower themselves through life’s many challenges. I have experience in supporting clients through various areas including: depression, suicidal ideation/self-harm, anxiety, perfectionism, OCD, trauma, attachment, substance use and process addictions, and supporting LGBTQ+

Do you find yourself struggling with day to day life or perhaps a dependance on a substance that you know no longer serves you? If so, I am here to help support you through whatever life goals you feel would add to your feeling of fulfillment in life through deeper self-exploration and self-compassion. I have experience working with adults of all ages struggling with substance use, trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, and disordered eating. My belief is that you already know what you need in order to heal, but that it may just not be aware to you quite yet.

As social beings, people need the contact and acceptance of other people. It is not uncommon for people to experience things that disrupt or unravel their lives, and they feel they have no one to turn to who understands or accepts them. Whether this experience is anxiety, depression, stress, life changes, or trauma, my passion is to help individuals find healthy ways of coping and processing the events in their lives. As well as helping people connect with others in more meaningful ways.

I believe as humans we must support each other on our life journey. I enjoy helping clients gain a deeper understanding of themselves, their thought patterns and emotions, relationships, and navigate and make sense of their world. I believe that clarifying what is important to each individual, their needs, and their goals, helps provide direction and purpose in life. I often help clients explore how past experiences, family dynamics, addiction, and personality affect how we relate and function in this world. I offer individual, couples, and family sessions.

I approach therapy from a trauma perspective because regardless if you’re experiencing depression, poor self esteem, relationship problems, divorce, abuse, anxiety/panic, addiction, self-harm, or simply procrastination — there’s likely something from your past that’s playing havoc with your life today. Whatever holds you captive will also reveal the key for your more positive future. That’s why it’s imperative we start there. Left to yourself, it might just get more muddy and feel overwhelming. But, I’ve witnessed clients transform a negative self concept and painful past into strength, resilience, and healthy living.

Life is challenging, sometimes it can feel like we aren’t made for the pace that is asked of us in today’s world. The result can feel like disconnect, overwhelm, or even depression and anxiety. Therapy can help. It is clear to me in my work, and in my own life, that once we start paying attention to our pain, we can do something about it. Having a guide in that process can make it simpler and more effective. Everyone is unique and as individuals what we need can take time to uncover and incorporate into our daily lives.

I believe therapy is a way to enrich life and develop connection in a space with compassion and free of judgment. My methods involve treating the whole person, mind, body & spirit. I believe it is important to identify and process emotion, non-verbal communication, somatic expressions and subconscious processes. Memories play a part in how our brains process and store meaning to life. Misinterpreted meaning sometimes becomes internalized and leaves us with unwanted thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. As we work together we process those memories leaving undesired mind/body connections behind.
