At an early age I spent hours listening to people talk about the transitions, traumas, and troubles in their life as I played just out of ear’s reach (or so they thought). These special moments ignited a passion for people and what happens when human beings start being human.

Together, we identify patterns, build practical coping and communication skills, and create a treatment plan that reflects your needs, strengths, and goals.

Reaching out for therapy is a courageous first step, and I strive to make that step feel as comfortable as possible. I believe healing happens when you feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. My goal is to create a space where you can show up as you are, without judgment, pressure, or the need to have everything figured out.
I work with individuals ages 12 and older who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Whether you're facing a recent challenge or carrying experiences that have weighed on you for years, we'll work together to better understand what's happening beneath the surface and move toward meaningful, lasting change.
I see therapy as a partnership. You'll be met with compassion, curiosity, and respect as we work toward your goals at a pace that feels right for you.

Are you struggling with feelings that you can't quite put into words? Have you attempted to mask this with unhealthy behaviors and coping that has led to guilt, shame or self-doubt? Maybe just being forced to "push through" because life has given you no other alternatives. Potentially these emotions have gotten in the way of your success and or every day life (job, school, relationships), and, you have turned to every avenue for help, but still not found yourself feeling any better? If this is you then your feelings are valid. I help individuals who are struggling to get unstuck in tackling the many challenges of life.
My approach is individualized and non-judgmental. It is important for me to take the time to help you feel safe and comfortable enough to be your true and authentic self. I see everyone's journey as unique within its own right. I believe that the experiences from our past help shape and define our present sometimes being embedded in our subconscious.
Whether you are new to therapy and anxious about taking that first step, or returning after a long haul, I am here to help you take the steps needed to move your life in the ways of your own choosing. My hope is help you bring clarity to your experiences while supporting you in your journey towards transcendence.

I specialize in supporting individuals, couples, and families who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected. Many clients come to me during chapters of life that feel confusing or chaotic. Together, we slow things down. We work to understand what's driving the pain, identify what you truly need, and develop practical skills to move forward with confidence and clarity.
My clinical background includes addiction counseling, family dynamics, grief work, trauma-informed care, and supporting clients who have experienced unstable relationships, emotional dysregulation, or long-standing stress. I provide a non-judgemental environment where honesty is welcomed, growth is supported, and you don't have to pretend to be ok.
Therapy with me is active- we talk, plan, reflect, and practice new ways of thinking and coping. You will always leave the session with insight, direction, and support you can apply to everyday life. If you are ready to start healing, reconnect with yourself, and build healthier relationships, I'm here to walk with you. Reach out to schedule a consultation.

I’m a trauma‐focused therapist who helps clients heal in a safe, gentle, and effective way. My approach goes beyond talk therapy to include experiential methods that support deep nervous‐system healing while you remain fully in control. I draw from psychodynamic, somatic, and humanistic traditions to help you reconnect with yourself and move forward with confidence
