I work with people who want to start or continue their journey in healing from trauma, clients who may be struggling to navigate what it means to be neurodivergent and clients who want to learn more about their own identity throughout this process. Together, we can work on reducing shame, blame and guilt surrounding traumas, decrease hypervigilance and avoidance to work toward valued living.

I have been working with kids, teens, and families for over ten years. Whether it has been in a children’s hospital, an intensive program, or a small community practice, I have continued to learn and grow alongside my patients.

I have been working with toddlers, children, adolescents and their families for over 15 years providing therapy, parent support, and assessment. I take a collaborative warm approach.

My goal is to meet patients where they are, understand their needs, and work together through change in a supportive environment.

Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, losing time, loss of a sense of self, masking, sensory overload, or trauma that affects activities of daily life, life goals, relationships, or work? Do you find yourself feeling exhausted, frustrated, lost, overwhelmed, or just plain done by trying get through the day or live up to other’s standards? Do you question whether life could be better? Now more than ever, folks are feeling uncertain about finding a life that they want to live.

Welcome! I am so happy that you are taking the hardest and most important step in your mental health journey - finding a therapist that is right for YOU! I work with a multitude of people from different backgrounds and goals. However, the ones that I find I have the most successful relationships with are young adults in their 20s-30s dealing with transitions into emerging adulthood. We are constantly bombarded with the push to be perfect (supermom, money mindset, 75 hard etc.) But why run yourself into the ground when you can live by your values and be your most authentic self? I can help you along that journey!

Negative emotions, difficulties in interpersonal relationships, and trauma can all have a profound impact on our ability to feel well and engage fully with the world around us. Despite these troubles, we all have an incredible capacity for healing. I believe that healing is not a one-size-fits-all experience, so I work with each person individually to create a plan that works to best meet their unique needs.

While I work with clients of all ages and needs, I spend a lot of time working with teenagers and young adults with depression, anxiety, and adjustment disorders. I enjoy providing a safe space for clients of this age range to develop coping skills, discuss identity and self-esteem and address life changes and transitions.

If anxiety and fear have more control over your life than you do, you are not alone. Living with relentless-intrusive thoughts, scary images, paralyzing anxiety, and mental and health-related fears is exhausting. If you support a loved one suffering from OCD or anxiety, it can be just as painful. Being pregnant or a new parent adds additional stress and responsibility, which can make symptoms worse. Working with me, you will gain a better understanding of what is happening, reduce unwanted symptoms like anxiety, fear, and shame, and learn helpful tools and coping skills to manage all of it.

Normal is a setting on a dryer. We are all unique and valid individuals with vast minds. We all have different situations and I believe in using those pieces to heal and build strength. While I specialize in trauma, addiction, and mood, our struggles are usually not that one note or simple. I focus on all aspects of who you and where you want to be, building a strong relationship based on empathy, trust and non judgement. Life is rough, we lose sight of our way, stop seeing the beauty, forget who we are, feel stuck or changed. It takes courage to be vulnerable and reality is we are imperfectly perfect.
