Anxiety can be overwhelming and isolating, affecting every aspect of your life. Quick to self-blame and judge yourself? Have trouble navigating communication with people you love? Struggling through a period of transition? I understand that life throws challenges your way – from academic and societal pressures to complex relationships and changes in your norm. You're not alone. It is my goal to provide a space where you can openly share your thoughts, increase your emotional vocabulary, and explore change without judgment or expectations. I also offer Equine Assisted Psychotherapy!
Let's work together to ease the burden of pressure and perfection, ease anxiety and distress in transitions, get un-stuck, improve communication, and understand yourself on a deeper level. I utilize experiential therapies - journaling, art, walk and talk - and believe in your ability to heal, find joy, hope, love yourself, and live the life you envision.
The decision to enter therapy is a big one and it can feel daunting. I admire and honor the courage it takes for you to seek support. I offer a free 15 minute consult call to see if we're a good match. Additionally, I specialize in CAMS a suicide-focused, flexible, evidence-based framework, that engages us in a cooperative treatment of suicidal ideation.

I work with clients who are struggling with their self-worth, relationships, life-transitions, stress, anxiety, and depression. During our initial sessions, we will spend time exploring the challenges that brought you to therapy. Together, we will create a plan to address them in a way that feels right to you. Most of my clients experience a gradual decrease of symptoms within the first month.

In some sessions, clients that are interested will find themselves engaging in creative, experiential interventions such as collage, painting, drawing, clay, journaling, and in the new year - canine, and equine facilitated therapy. We will process these experiences together to gain insight, exploring a bit deeper than traditional talk therapy sometimes takes us.
