I provide a supportive, collaborative, and direct approach to therapy, helping clients better understand themselves while developing practical tools to move toward their goals.

Do you feel tired or have little energy or so restless that it is hard to sit still and relax? Are you easily annoyed or irritable?

I work exclusively with women only who are experiencing Depression and Anxiety. These conditions are treatable through talk therapy sessions and can often resolve in the short-term. Therapy does not have to be a long-term process and often you can achieve the goals you set for yourself within a matter of months.

I believe that each one of us has the answers to our problems inside of us. However, sometimes we need someone on our journey to help us unlock those answers by asking the right questions---things you may not have considered, presenting proven strategies, and psychoeducation.

I am a therapist who values the courage it takes to seek help and take the first step toward working on yourself.

Therefore, I offer a space where people can slow down, better understand the patterns behind what they feel, and learn how to navigate life with more clarity, emotional balance, and self-understanding rather than constantly feeling like they are just trying to survive through it.

I enjoy working with clients and helping them through the therapy process and achieve their goals. Originally, I was planning on becoming an anthropologist and studying with Dr. Margaret Mead, however, my career plans changed when I realized that my own family had difficulties in communicating with each other. I wanted to study and help other families learn to talk to one another. From seeing families, this turned into seeing children-teens, couples, and adults. I find it very rewarding to help clients through a difficult time.

I work with men, young adults, and adolescents who are navigating a wide range of life challenges, including emotional struggles, behavioral concerns, and major life transitions.

One of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. I applaud you on taking this first step in investing in your growth and personal development. Sometimes, we are faced with major life changes or challenges that alter our perspective on life, which directly impact our mental, emotional, and social well-being. By promoting a safe, judgement free, and shame free environment, my aim is to allow you the freedom to explore your experiences with a sense of curiosity, compassion, openness, and acceptance. I offer online counseling to individuals, families and groups to help them develop the skills necessary to successfully overcome challenges in life.

I work with teens and adults who want a space where they can breathe, feel understood, and not have to explain the parts of themselves that already feel heavy. Many come in sorting through identity, mood shifts, trauma, or the realities of living with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. My approach is rooted in empathy, deep listening, and genuine connection. Together, we move toward healing, steadiness, and a life that feels more like your own.

I approach mental wellness as a spectrum of being that will regularly ebb and flow for all people. We all have "good" days and "not so good" days; we all need someone to talk to and to listen to us when days are harder, and we all need a compassionate voice to tell us that we can work through this. Menatl health work is manageable when it is education and information based, which helps us to make our problems seem more manageable. I like to help my clients feel comfortable about talking through their thoughts and obstacles, and finding real, simple solutions to problems. I have worked with people of all ages; my youngest client was 3 years old, and my oldest client was 84; I am proud to say that I can adjust to meet clients' needs. This is due to my ability to listen and to collaborate actively with clients to help them have a say in their care and healing.

As a therapist, I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you feel truly heard. I view therapy as a partnership, combining practical coping strategies with insight-oriented support. Whether you face major life transitions, anxiety, or challenges related to ADHD, I am here to help you heal, grow, and live authentically. I specialize in neurodivergence, executive functioning, and building practical skills, utilizing CBT, DBT, and mindfulness tools to build a safe space for your growth. Together, we will work to understand old habits, leverage your strengths, and help you live a proud, authentic, and values-driven life.
