I take a warm, curious approach to understanding you and the roots of your suffering. Together, we’ll explore not only what you’re experiencing, but why, so you can better understand yourself and navigate your life with more clarity and confidence. I’m a natural “dot connector”—almost forensic in how I help piece together the ways your history, relationships, beliefs, and experiences intersect and shape the present.

I work extensively with trauma (both recent and historical), relationship challenges, and substance use concerns. My goal is to help you feel truly seen, understood, and supported as we build a healing path that is both informed and deeply personal to you. Wherever you’re starting from, we’ll walk the path of understanding and healing together.

My pronouns are they/them. I have extensive experience supporting clients within the LGBTQIA+ community as well as those outside of it, and I strive to offer an affirming, knowledgeable environment for people of all identities and backgrounds.

I have been in the field of mental health for 30 plus years. My primary specialties include anxiety, depression, trauma/EMDR, couples, and post-partum concerns. I am also trained in Internal Family Systems, Love and Logic Parenting, and I have expertise in chemical dependency as well. I work with individual adults, couples, adolescents, college age youth.

My approach is holistic, and I often use CBT along with solution-focused and mindfulness-based therapeutic strategies. I integrate these methods based on the unique client and do not believe in a “one technique fits all” approach. I am non-judgmental and easy to talk to. Through collaboration, I empower my clients and promote inner strength and growth.

Sometimes our lives can become overwhelming and challenging. We might encounter events that are out of our control. Perhaps our relationships are rocky, or we are at some point in our lives where change is disruptive and hard to maneuver. Suddenly, we find ourselves needing support and want to explore what therapy might have to offer. I work with individuals, families, and couples in a range of ages, teen to elder. I am an inclusive provider who is a strong supporter/advocate in working with BIPOC and LBGTQIA2+ communities.

I find it really helpful to create a solid therapeutic connection which allows the individual to feel they are truly validated. Some of the interventions I am trained in include EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), Brainspotting, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Sand Tray Therapy, and Internal Family Systems.

People are unique human beings with a long list of remarkable qualities. Sometimes though, we feel that we have qualities that we need to work on to be our better selves. I work with individuals to find and strengthen those qualities. I consider each of the individuals who come to me for sessions as just that, individuals with autonomy. I use Emotional Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Play and Art Therapy.

I will help you figure out what you need and want, support healthy boundaries in your relationships, teach concrete skills that you can use, and guide you as you re-parent your inner child. Most importantly, in our work together you will find that you are a lovable human being with lots of awesome traits and that you belong in this world.

I offer a safe space to explore, express, and overcome obstacles while guiding you to live authentically and focus on your priorities. Through eclectic, person-centered approaches I can help you build trust and patience with yourself, others, and the world we live in. I offer both traditional talk therapy and Art Therapy as a Certified Art Therapist. I have specialized experience with people who have emotional and cognitive struggles, autism, and those dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, or serious and persistent mental illnesses.

I am dual-licensed to address both mental health and substance abuse. My approach uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, mindfulness techniques and person-centered approaches that have been shown to be highly effective for treating a multitude of concerns. I believe that by increasing conscious awareness, clients can be empowered to change their lives. I enjoy working with adults, adolescents, and families.

Some areas that I focus on include trauma and post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety, panic, boundary and relationship issues, chemical dependency and relapse prevention, behavioral addictions, mood disorders, ADHD and anger management.

You’re driven, capable, and often seen as “doing fine”—even when you feel overwhelmed inside. Maybe anxiety is showing up before tests, games, or social situations. Maybe you’re questioning who you are outside of school, your sport, or others' expectations. I work with preteens, teens, and young adults to slow down, manage anxiety, build confidence, and reconnect with what matters. You don’t have to do it all alone—and you don’t have to have it all figured out.

My approach is warm, direct, and strengths-based. I lead with empathy while also holding space for accountability. We’ll build on what’s working, explore what’s getting in the way, and take practical steps toward change so you can move forward with more clarity, confidence, and self-trust.

I just elected a membership with Association for Social Work in Sport (ASWIS). This is a Professional Member of the Association for Social Work in Sport (ASWIS), a national organization dedicated to advancing mental health care for athletes.

I am passionate about helping individuals and couples navigate the complexities of relationships and attachment. Utilizing attachment theory, relational dynamics, and some CBT, I will guide you in understanding how your past influences your present connections. My approach is rooted in empathy and collaboration, creating a safe space for you to explore your feelings, patterns, and behaviors. I believe that healing begins with awareness and that building strong, secure relationships is essential for our mental well-being. Together, we will work to identify attachment styles, challenge thought patterns, and foster deeper connections.

My areas of interest include anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self-esteem, and trauma. I enjoy working with young adults, adults, and couples. For couples interested in pre-marital/pre-commitment work, I am certified as a Prepare/Enrich facilitator and can provide an assessment and feedback sessions.

Many folks seek therapy due to a disconnection: from themselves, others, or community. During therapy, I support your identification of relationship patterns, offer feedback on your relationship style, and hold space for you to practice different relational approaches. I can also incorporate interventions that are cognitive (focus on thoughts), behavioral (action-based), or emotional (name, express, and be with feelings), depending on your personal needs.

Therapy is about change, and change can be scary. With humor, compassion, understanding, and belief in your capacity, I can help you explore what types of change might help you most.

Navigating life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, especially when you're dealing with anxiety, relationship strain, or major transitions like starting a new job, entering adulthood, or adjusting to change. You don’t have to go through it alone. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Therapy with me is a collaborative process where we work together to help you gain insight, build confidence, and reconnect with your strengths. My therapeutic style is warm, patient, and flexible. I take an integrative approach, tailoring sessions to fit your needs while we move at your pace.

I draw from evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness-based strategies, and strengths-based framework. I welcome clients of all ages and enjoy helping individuals and couples through periods of personal growth, identity development, and transition.
