Life can feel overwhelming when you're carrying the weight of anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, or past experiences on your own. My goal is to provide a space where you can slow down, feel heard, and reconnect with yourself. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I'm passionate about helping women navigate life's transitions, heal from emotional wounds, and build lives that feel more balanced, authentic, and fulfilling. I believe therapy is more than talking through problems—it's an opportunity to better understand yourself, strengthen your resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change, rather than simply managing symptoms. Together, we'll explore what's keeping you stuck and develop practical tools to support your overall well-being. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique experiences. I'm here to walk alongside you as you rediscover your authentic self, and create a life that feels aligned with who you truly are.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent more than 20 years building businesses, developing products, leading teams, and working with high-achieving professionals in demanding environments. Today, I bring that perspective into my clinical work, helping clients who may look highly successful on the outside while feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck on the inside. I understand the pressures that can accompany achievement, including perfectionism, burnout, career transitions, relationship challenges, and the feeling that your external persona no longer matches how you truly feel. My goal is to help clients understand what is keeping them stuck, reconnect with what matters to them, and develop practical strategies to move forward. I work with clients navigating career challenges, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions. Whether you are struggling to make a career decision, recovering from a difficult experience, questioning an identity built around achievement, or simply know that something needs to change but aren't sure how to move forward, therapy can provide a space to step back, gain perspective, and create a path forward that feels both meaningful and sustainable.

Hi, I'm so glad you're here. Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to figure things out on your own. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are—without judgment, pressure, or the need to have it all together. With over 14 years of experience, I work with adolescents, college students, and adults navigating anxiety, eating disorders, life transitions, identity, relationships, and the unique challenges that come with being an athlete. As an LGBTQ+ identifying therapist, I'm committed to creating an affirming, inclusive space where you feel seen, respected, and supported. I take a warm, collaborative, and holistic approach to therapy, blending evidence-based practices with an understanding of how our mental, emotional, and physical well-being are all connected. When it fits your goals, I also incorporate an integrative nutrition perspective to support your overall wellness. Outside the therapy room, you'll usually find me running, dancing, or horseback riding. As an athlete myself, I understand the highs, lows, and pressures that can come with performance, balance, and caring for both your mind and body. I believe therapy is about more than getting through hard moments—it's about building a life that feels authentic, meaningful, and sustainable. Wherever you are in your journey, you don't have to walk it alone. I'd be honored to walk alongside you.

I like to approach therapy like a journey that we take together- we work together to chart our course, to lean on one another in working through various challenges we encounter, to celebrate the successes and to hopefully reach the place you would like to see yourself in the end. I typically work to integrate discussions from a feeling and cognitive level to understand how we begin to untangle some of the challenges you might be experiencing.
