My passion is helping young adults and adults heal from a variety of issues that leave them feeling disconnected from themselves and others, sad, lonely, and often fearful. These issues can interfere with living happy, authentic, and fulfilled lives. I am dedicated to helping those struggling to develop healthier coping mechanisms and learning new skills, including new thought patterns, recognizing body cues and listening to them, and adjusting behaviors not aligned with their values and belief systems. My clients are those who are tired of struggling, know there is a better life for them, and know they can have the life they desire. My clients often have experienced trauma, complex trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief/loss, interpersonal relationship difficulty, parenting issues, divorce, stress, career/vocational struggles, and adjustment issues.

The therapeutic relationship is a very important element of our sessions. I strive to meet the individual needs of each client and I believe in assessing all areas of life and how they affect one’s mental health. I utilize evidence-based treatments for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy along with mindfulness and other holistic approaches to help my clients achieve their goals and align with their authentic selves. You and I are a team and, at times, therapy can be overwhelming. I am here to make the process as compassionate as possible and try to insert humor when appropriate. My clients are active participants in the healing process and are ready to make changes in their lives.
