Find Your Counselor

Many of us spend so much time taking care of everyone else that we forget what it feels like to take care of ourselves. We push through stress, trauma, loss, relationship challenges, work demands, and daily responsibilities because that's what we've always done. Over time, that constant pressure can leave us feeling exhausted, disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck.

As a Psychologist Candidate with a PhD in Clinical Psychology, I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, adjustment to changes, ADHD, autism spectrum level one concerns, relationship difficulties, and challenges related to stress, identity, and personal growth. I have a particular passion for working with first responders, veterans, healthcare professionals, and other helping professionals who often carry significant responsibilities while putting their own needs last.

Our work isn't about fixing what's "wrong" with you. It's about understanding your story, recognizing what has helped you survive, and developing tools that help you move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and resilience. My approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and tailored to your unique needs, goals, and strengths so that therapy feels meaningful, practical, and supportive of the life you want to create.

I have provided therapeutic interventions as an outpatient therapist and crisis counselor for 10 years; working with people with acute mental health concerns and people with serious and persistent mental health disorders.

I have worked with people of diverse backgrounds over my career. In helping clients achieve their mental health goals, I acknowledge and support developing a strong therapeutic relationship with my client to best support my clients in developing awareness and skills needed to achieve the therapeutic goals that you set. I believe in a client-centered approach that focuses on interventions that will work best with each, individual client for the best result, based on the beliefs and values of those clients

I understand that people have situations that come up in their lives while working on goals and have, and hope to continue to, help my clients learn skills needed to help manage those problems and increase awareness of how they impact my clients' mental health. I will support you in making changes in your mental health when you are ready to begin.

I specialize in working with individuals struggling with anger and emotional regulation, as well as substance use and co-occurring mental health concerns. These are areas where I bring focused experience helping clients understand the patterns beneath the behavior and build practical tools for lasting change. Beyond these specialties, I also support clients navigating trauma, relationship challenges, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. I take a holistic approach, recognizing that emotional well-being is shaped by many interconnected areas of life, including relationships, physical health, spirituality, work, family dynamics, and past experiences. Challenges rarely occur in isolation, so together we explore the whole person rather than just the symptoms, working to understand the experiences and strengths that shape your life. I offer a compassionate and collaborative space where you feel safe, respected, and understood without fear of judgment. Drawing on evidence-based methods tailored to your unique needs, values, and goals, I help you develop practical skills while also addressing the deeper experiences that contribute to emotional distress. To me, healing is about more than symptom reduction. It is about building a life that feels meaningful, balanced, and aligned with who you are. My goal is to help you strengthen self-awareness, build resilience, improve relationships, process difficult experiences, and reconnect with your authentic self so you can move forward with greater confidence, purpose, and hope

Life can feel overwhelming at times—especially when anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, or struggles with food and body image begin to take over. You don’t have to navigate it alone. I am a Licensed Social Worker (LSW) with experience working with depression, anxiety, social anxiety, relational issues, grief, disordered eating, and weight management. I offer an empathetic, non-judgmental space where you can feel safe, heard, and respected. My approach is person-centered and uniquely tailored to each client. I believe meaningful change happens within a therapeutic relationship built on trust, collaboration, and understanding. Together, we’ll focus on what matters most to you and move at a pace that feels right. If you’re considering therapy, I’d be honored to support you.

Feeling safe with others is probably the most critical aspect of mental health; safe connections are fundamental to meaningful and satisfying lives." - Bessel Van Der Kolk.  

I believe that we all deserve relationships that we feel emotionally safety within. Relationships where we can get in touch with our emotions and feel truly felt by another person. I believe in the power of sharing our stories and being seen and "feeling with" another human being can be an incredibly healing experience. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and a Master's in Social Work(SWC). 

As a therapist, I strive to provide others with outside insight, helpful information, and empathy to help you normalize your struggles. I bring good listening skills, and a little gentle humor to each session. My practice is rooted in attachment theory and pulls on IFS and Narrative work.  I am happy to work with clients who have a variety of challenges including- relationships, trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and LGBTQ support!
