I believe that from a young age, we find ways to navigate and survive the world around us. However, sometimes the tools we’ve developed in the past no longer serve us in our current situation and can lead to distress. By gaining a better understanding of ourselves and embracing our strengths, we’re better equipped to develop adequate and effective skills to navigate both internal and external challenges that come our way! I have experience working in settings that have allowed me to meet and work with people with different challenges, backgrounds, and experiences!

Or, is there something about yourself, an area in your life, or something from your past that affects you but you aren’t sure how to address it? Resolution can take many forms and might end up being different than what you thought it would be. It can be helpful to explore your situation with an experienced counselor.

Each person has a unique and valid story; it is a privilege to get to learn each client’s. As a clinician, my goal is to help discover and expand clients' existing resources and skills, in order to grow in the directions they choose. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults who may have PTSD and a history of trauma in their lives, ADHD, anxiety, depression, struggles with body image, weight stigma, and/or sexuality. I welcome clients who are part of the LGBTQIA+ community as well as those who may practice nontraditional relationship structures such as consensual nonmonogamy.

Are you struggling with feeling like you are not enough as a parent, partner, family member, or friend? Do you often find yourself sad, worried, or overwhelmed? Do you ever feel like no one truly listens to you and your problems are minimized by others? I understand how difficult it can be to reach out for help, and I believe everyone should be heard and accepted without judgement.

Deciding that we need help is not an easy thing to admit. It's even more difficult to reach out to get the help we know we deserve. No matter what you are dealing with in life, may it be daily anxiety and depression or transitioning through a phase in your life that turned out to be more difficult than you thought. I am here to listen and help you through these times. I hope that with my help you can live your life the way you have always wanted and feel proud for the work you have done to truly take care of yourself.

Accepting New Clients. Often what brings people to therapy can be summed up by the word “stuck”. You might be stuck in a rut; under a cloud of sadness or depression; caught in the spin cycle of anxiety; trying to process relationship issues or a big decision; or wanting to move past trauma or grief & loss. Maybe someone or something in your life has given you a soft or firm nudge in the direction of therapy. We’ll work through whatever you bring to therapy in a way that prepares you to meet any difficulties along the road while you reach your goals.
