Are you struggling to stay present while your thoughts are racing constantly in your head? It feels difficult to juggle all the things on your to-do list and you’re struggling to keep your head above water. Maybe you take care of everyone else’s needs and it feels like you’re losing yourself, but you don’t know how to say “no.” You might be at a crossroads, trying to navigate personal beliefs amid questions & confusion. Your feelings could be related to something that happened to you and you don’t know how to get rid of the painful reminders. It’s like you’re ready to move forward, but you feel stuck trying to take that first step.
This is a place where you can feel seen & safe. I specialize in working with adults navigating anxiety (including people pleasing and perfectionism), trauma, & spirituality issues (including religious trauma, & deconstruction). I believe in meeting you wherever you are in your journey towards healing and to offer you a space to grow into who you want to be.
With me as a therapist, you can feel validated in your feelings knowing that I’m committed to helping you become your best self; whatever that looks like for you. I don’t claim to be perfect & I don’t expect you to be either. Here, you can find the freedom to wonder, explore, & heal without fear of judgment. Schedule a consultation today and let’s chat!

When it comes to therapy, I often take a cognitive behavioral approach. This helps me identify how your thoughts, feelings and behaviors all connect and guides the treatment process. We will also examine how your values inform the life you aim to live and use dialectical behavioral therapy to provide clarity. Last, I utilize a strength and compassionate-based approach to encourage your progress.
