I want to help you build the capacity to make long-term change in your life. I enjoy helping people develop an understanding as to why the world can feel so overwhelming, and how this negatively impacts the way we feel about ourselves, the way we interact with others in relationships, and generally the way we move about spaces everyday. When we have an understanding of the emotional reasonings and negative impact on our minds and bodies, it can help us make sense of what has been missing in our lives. I'd like to help you find new, healthy, and mindful ways of getting what you want and need.

The most important relationship we have is the one with ourselves. Therapy provides space to reflect on the ways we think, feel, and act, empowering us to know ourselves more deeply, heal more fully, and become the person that we want to be. I believe that healing and growth must welcome and incorporate all facets of ourselves–even the parts with which we have a complicated relationship–and that self-compassion and curiosity are some of the most powerful tools of self-discovery. I welcome people to show up authentically, offering an environment that is supportive, nonjudgemental, and safe.

Struggling with mental health and life transitions are extremely difficult. The hardest part about facing these challenges is asking for help and being open to accepting that help.

If you struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationships, identity, grief, eating disordered behaviors, and more, I'm here to support you on your journey of healing.

Sometimes life can feel a little overwhelming. This holds true for young kids, teens, and adults. In my therapy, I use a variety of techniques and approaches to meet my clients where they are and utilize their strengths in order to get them to achieve their goals regardless of their age, gender, or orientation. Together, we will identify strengths, skills, and resources that you will turn into opportunity and growth. We will focus on the solution and not the problem. Greatness is just being better than you were yesterday!

It can be overwhelming to try and to deal with the stress of everyday life while carrying the weight of unresolved stress. In time, that stress can cause us our perspectives towards others and how we feel about our lives to change. This is typically when people seek treatment to work through that stuck feeling, to pursue more meaningful lives that aren't weighed down by stress or their experiences. I work to create a calm, accepting atmosphere so that clients can more easily speak their experiences into existence and let go of the stress that keeps them stuck.

As a licensed professional counselor who has worked in the field of mental health for more than 8 years, I believe that each person in therapy is ultimately "the one behind the wheel".
