Currently Accepting New Clients! These are tough times! Many of us find our anxiety or depression is through the roof! Relationship issues are magnified by fears, financial woes, having to stay cooped-up together, and even grave loss. I am here to help. The decision to enter therapy is a courageous one: therapy requires change. You’ve come this far and that says something about you: you want a better life. I have a deep and heartfelt interest in walking the corridors of life with you, helping you find the things you want, the things you deserve, as you, and your partner or family find happiness and meaning in your journey.

I provide individual therapy for adults on issues of anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts and/or feelings, self-criticism, grief, and relationship dissatisfaction. Our time together will be engaging, thought provoking, and supportive. I also understand counseling can be painful at times. I am committed to being present alongside you during these moments and to honor your exploration into where you have been, where you are, and where you would like to go. I can assist you in growing self-compassion, unhooking from painful thoughts and feelings, developing healthy coping skills, and supporting your pursuits of a meaningful life.

Welcome! I look forward to exploring ways to deepen your self-awareness and compassion. I value you as the expert on your life and work to create a safe place to share what you are hoping for from therapy. While I work with a variety of concerns in my practice, anxiety and self-compassion are primary focuses. I am affirming of individuals of all ages, races, sexual orientations, and genders, with experience supporting the non-monogamous, TGNC/NB, and LGBQIA communities. My counseling style is often described as kind, insightful, and curious. I avoid advice-giving, instead encouraging you to explore the answers within yourself.

I am an evidence-based therapist who incorporates mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral strategies to tailor therapy to your needs. I will help you understand how to be more present-focused, how to set yourself up for success, and how to challenge negative thoughts and beliefs that hold you back from living a genuine life. I am a goal-oriented therapist. In the initial stages of therapy we will work together to identify and clarify goals. Then, I'll help you learn new skills or tools to make those goals a reality. Finally, we'll work on reducing the likelihood of similar issues comes up in the future.

You're not feeling so good about things right now, and you're running out of ideas to make it better. Maybe your relationship with a partner, family member or friend has gone sideways, leaving you feeling hurt, misunderstood or alone. Maybe your relationship with yourself is struggling, weighted by negative thoughts and feelings that don't accurately reflect who you really are or who you want to be. You're not your best self right now, and you know it. You're tired of feeling this way—and you want to change it.
