Great to meet you!

I specialize in young and mature adults who are often viewed as "complicated" by others in their lives. I have extensive experience with individuals suffering from anxiety/depression and low self-confidence; as well as survivors of trauma and a variety of mental illnesses.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach is informal, supportive, and I love to laugh! I use a variety of therapeutic interventions such as Internal Family Systems, Brainspotting, and DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy). If you are feeling skeptical about therapy, try to have 3 sessions before making a decision either way. If you want your life to be different, you at least owe it to yourself to try something different.

What you can expect from our first session

My purpose as a therapist is to meet you wherever you are in your journey and create a safe, empowering space where we can work together as a team to move you closer toward your personal goals. This may mean working through past trauma, identifying destructive patterns, or perhaps it just means helping you reframe your thinking about a current life change. Please reach out and take your first step toward becoming a better version of yourself!
