Find Your Counselor

As a therapist, I believe I work for you because no one knows you better than you know yourself. I will walk with you on your journey to healing and help you discover the roots of your issues. I am committed to supporting you in finding solutions that will facilitate your growth, bring you peace, and enable you to embrace your authentic self, living a life of fulfillment and prosperity. I am well-educated in addiction studies, trauma, and co-occurring disorders. My goal as your therapist is to provide you with a safe space to be yourself, connect with your honest emotions, and express whatever you need to say without judgment. I emphasize an approach that includes compassion, authenticity, and understanding as we work together to find courage, embrace healing, and actualize the potential that has been within you all along. I feel passionate about trauma-informed therapy perspectives, Internal Family Systems, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing practices, and mindfulness skills for healing, balance, and for connecting to our internal experiences.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who provides individualized and evidence-based care to people with a wide variety of mental health concerns in an environment that is professional, respectful, and empathetic. Seeking help can be intimidating. When I first meet someone, I strive to create a safe environment for each client to feel heard, supported, and comfortable. I get to know each client as a whole person with a unique history, life experiences, interests, and goals. My approach to care is always collaborative and flexible, with clients as active participants in their care. By working together, I am confident I can help clients minimize their distressing symptoms, attain a sense of fulfillment, and improve their quality of life.

As a therapist, I believe that healing begins in relationships - especially the one you have with yourself. I offer a warm, grounded, and collaborative space where you can explore your inner world, reconnect with your authentic self, and build healthier, more fulfilling relationships. My approach integrates person-centered therapy, attachment theory, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and relational psychodynamic work. I specialize in working with people navigating anxiety, attachment wounds, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, high sensitivity, and neurodivergence. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck in patterns that once helped them survive but are no longer serving them. Together, we explore those patterns with curiosity and compassion, not judgment. Clients often describe me as calming, present, and easy to talk to. At the same time, I am an active therapist: I don’t sit back silently, but instead engage thoughtfully, ask meaningful questions, and offer gentle guidance when needed. I see therapy as a shared journey, one where my role is to provide both a safe haven and a catalyst for meaningful change. Growth often involves discomfort, and I aim to support you in stretching just enough to foster that change, without overwhelming your system. Ultimately, I want therapy with me to feel like a place where you can bring your full self, messy, uncertain, hopeful, tender, and be met with care, insight, and genuine connection. In addition to my clinical work, I am passionate about research and am currently pursuing my PhD, focusing on culture shock, reverse culture shock, fluctuations in self-concept, and belonging.

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.
