New to Grow
Have you found yourself wondering what’s keeping you from feeling fulfilled, peaceful, or loved? Maybe you can relate to the words "Self-sabotaging." Or you find yourself constantly feeling anxious in your relationships, feeling “not enough,” or “too much?” You might feel disconnected, like you're watching your life from the outside, and can't really experience living the way you want to. Maybe life has left you doubting your own ability to create happiness. You are not alone in this experience, and if you are willing to take the first step, I'm here to be a guide back to the person you want to be.
Together we will sit down and talk through what you want your life to look like. We'll talk through things like your family history, your relationships, and your patterns at a pace that feels safe for you. As you begin to feel more confident, I will challenge you to take necessary steps and actions to become more connected to yourself and the life you want.
Every person has a core self that’s capable of living well. But often we feel forced into roles and patterns that hold us back. My clients and I look honestly at past and present to figure out what has either wounded or not worked for them, and then find the skills to make meaningful change for the future. My goal is for you to feel safe, understood, and also challenged.

Other specialties
I identify as
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Sometimes we find ourselves feeling disconnected from what makes us feel truly fulfilled, connected, and at peace. I use Internal Family Systems as a framework to help you understand yourself more in order to advocate for your own needs and happiness in relationships and in life. This does not mean becoming more selfish, it means becoming more authentic, which makes space for us to feel real compassion, have real connection, and pursue what we are truly passionate about.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I find that when people feel stuck in the anxiety of what is outside of their control, whether this be in relationships, work, or life in general, DBT can be really helpful. With DBT, we work to connect you with your "wise mind," through grounding and mindfulness, so that you can learn to discern what is within or outside of your control, and choose your actions accordingly. This may mean coping with things you can't change, but it also might mean taking action when it comes to what you can, like setting boundaries, regulating emotions, etc.
Gottman method
If you are having relationship difficulties, the Gottman Method is a really helpful tool to have. The Gottman's have some of the best research in relationships to date, and used their research to build a path out of distress for couples. If you come to me with your partner or spouse, we will talk about communication patterns, deep underlying needs, and how to rebuild trust and connection.
