I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in working with individual adults. I support clients navigating ADHD, neurodivergence, emotional regulation, relationship patterns, identity, and life transitions. My work is trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming, and grounded in the belief that therapy can help you better understand yourself, strengthen self-trust, and the clinical belief that any person can change course in life at any time.
I draw from approaches such as EFT, IFS, ACT, and integrative experiential techniques, tailoring our work to your unique needs and goals. Together, we’ll explore emotions, patterns, and strategies that help you feel more grounded, resilient, and connected to yourself and the relationships that matter most.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to start therapy. On the outside, life may look “fine,” but internally you might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck in old patterns, or pulled in different directions. Part of you wants change, another part feels exhausted, protective, hurt, or unsure where to begin. Therapy can help make sense of those inner conflicts instead of fighting against them.
I’m a warm, down-to-earth therapist who believes healing happens through real human connection. Clients often tell me they feel comfortable with me quickly because I show up authentically, without judgment. I create a space where you can be fully honest, feel understood, and finally exhale.

Life sometimes brings us moments where things don't feel quite right - relationships change, identities evolve, responsibilities grow, or the ways we’ve always coped stop working as well as they once did. Those moments can feel confusing, lonely, or heavy.
For more than 20 years, I’ve helped people move through those seasons of change.
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable individuals who have spent years showing up for others - at work, in relationships, in their families - but feel uncertain about how to care for themselves in the same way. My clients often come to therapy feeling stuck in self-doubt, low mood, complicated family dynamics, body image struggles, or the quiet pressure to be everything for everyone.
I work with adults across many life stages - college students finding their direction, young adults building their lives, and mid-career professionals balancing work, relationships, parenting, or caregiving. I also have experience supporting military members and their families and provide affirming therapy for transgender clients.
Above all, I believe therapy should be a place where you feel respected, understood, and able to reconnect with your own voice.

Consider whether you'd prefer a therapist who specializes in a specific approach — such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or trauma-informed care — or one who takes a more flexible, personalized approach. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and decide if they're a good match before your first session.
