Therapist

Trauma, relationship issues, and a lifetime of being misunderstood can profoundly impact our mental health and sense of self. Some of these experiences may be difficult to process on your own, or even say out loud. As a board-certified therapist, I help women with a history of trauma/codependency build confidence; reduce self-harming behaviors; and heal their relationship with themselves.

Psychologist

I help people heal from trauma, with a special focus on sexual trauma, and I’ve been honored to support a wide range of individuals — including women, men, military veterans, and LGBTQIA clients — as they work through their experiences and take meaningful steps toward healing. I also enjoy helping people work through challenging life transitions (e.g., parenthood, divorce, etc.) and identity-specific concerns (e.g., men's issues, women's issues, gender identity exploration). In addition to individual therapy, I also provide relationship therapy for monogamous, non-monogamous, and open relationships as well as psychological assessment (e.g., ADHD, dementia, learning disorder, mental health) for adults.
