Healing that honors every part of you.
Therapy
I'm so glad you're here. If you choose to work with me, I'll have the honor of learning about you, so here's a little bit about me to see if I'm who you're looking for.
In Spring 2025, I became a mom to a little boy who is consistently a source of joy and wonder. I was thrilled for this next stage in my life, but pregnancy and postpartum were far more painful, complex, and vulnerable than I had expected. Until going through that personally, my clinical specialty was helping folks through their past and present traumas. While that is still a primary focus of mine, I have also had the privilege of working with moms, dads, and caregivers as they navigate the life transition of parenthood and explore their new, unfamiliar selves.
I am also a mom to three fluffy dogs and one leopard gecko, who is by far the easiest of the bunch. I don't have ample free time in this season of my life, but I love reading mystery novels, doing puzzles, and watching comedy movies when I can.
While I have worked with clients from many different backgrounds with varying presenting concerns, I find I am most effective with those focused on anxiety, depression, life transitions, parenting stress, pregnancy/postpartum issues, relationship difficulties, self esteem, and trauma. I was drawn to this work out of a deep respect for the resilience of the human spirit and a desire to be a steady presence for people during times of uncertainty, growth, and healing. Whether you're navigating a difficult season, healing from the past, or simply seeking to grow, therapy can be a powerful step toward a more connected and fulfilling life. I look forward to walking alongside you on that journey.

Individual Therapy
Individual therapy is a collaborative process designed to help you navigate life’s challenges in a safe, confidential environment. Whether you are dealing with deep-seated trauma, a major life transition, or uncertainty about who you are, therapy offers a partnership focused on growth.
Using evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches, we work together to process the "why" behind your struggles so you can focus on the "how" of your healing.
Areas of Focus
-
Managing Stress & Anxiety: Shifting from constant "survival mode" to a sense of calm.
-
Processing Transitions: Navigating career changes, grief, or shifts in identity.
-
Breaking Patterns: Understanding why you stay in cycles that no longer serve you.
-
Building Self-Worth: Developing a more compassionate and resilient relationship with yourself.
Couples Counseling
Whether you're facing a major crisis or just feel "out of sync," we’ll focus on practical tools to help you move forward together.
In our sessions, we move past the "who is right" dynamic and focus on the "what is happening" dynamic. My goal is to help you both identify the patterns that keep you stuck and provide the tools to build a more resilient, empathetic connection.
Areas of Focus
-
Communication Patterns: Moving from "looping" arguments to productive dialogue.
-
Emotional Safety: Rebuilding trust and creating a space where both partners feel heard.
-
Conflict Resolution: Learning how to disagree without damaging the relationship.
-
Intimacy & Connection: Rediscovering the friendship and passion that brought you together.
