I focus on helping adolescents, young adults, and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, relationship issues, stress, life changes, women's issues, and the impacts of trauma.
Accepting New Clients- Navigating life’s journey isn’t always straightforward. Along the way, we all face hurdles that can seem overwhelming—like they’re too much to handle on our own. And that’s okay. No one is meant to tackle life’s challenges alone. I firmly believe that each person holds the keys to their own life, but sometimes, we need a little help finding the right door. In our sessions together, I offer a supportive and courageous space where you can freely explore your thoughts and emotions. We'll work collaboratively to equip you with the skills needed for positive and lasting change.

My approach to psychotherapy is deeply rooted in building and working within an authentic relationship with each person.
I often work with patients to examine longstanding difficulties, both with others and within their own selves. Such patterns often leave people feeling misunderstood, empty, lost, unheard, unseen, taken advantage of, stuck, angry, or resentful. Feeling this way can leave you feeling disconnected from and distrusting of others; even those who you love and want to feel close to. Many times, these pieces can be extremely difficult and even can feel impossible to share. And that's okay. We will work together to address what feels important to you and at your pace.

Perhaps you are experiencing a difficult relationship, a new transition, a parenting challenge, work/life balance concerns, low self-esteem or maybe you are in pain, feeling stuck, anxious or simply want to move in a new direction with your life.
My approach to therapy is client-centered: clients are the experts on their lives and determine the direction and depth of therapy. Through a strengths-based and solutions-focused lens, I draw on multiple treatment modalities to guide clients in identifying strengths and developing treatment plans that accomplish their goals.

Maybe it is a confusing relationship, past traumas, parenting struggles, phobias, or general fears and anxieties.
You have already taken the first step toward healing, growth and answers by beginning your search for help. Struggles in life do not define us, but open up doors of greater insight and strength if we are willing to pause, listen and learn. It’s so easy to get used to rushing through life, content to just survive - doing to the point that we forget how to enjoy being, reflecting and growing. Sometimes you may feel like you lost yourself along the way, like you don’t know who you really are anymore.

Hello! I provide in-person, telehealth, and walk-and-talk counseling for adults and teens seeking healing and empowerment from difficulties with relationships, self-worth, trauma, and lacking passion or uncertainty about your place and direction in life. We might be a good fit if you like a more collaborative and relaxed approach (no “expert” ego here), want someone who highlights your strengths yet also holds you accountable to making meaningful changes, and appreciate a little humor to balance out the heavier work.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
