My clients are women, men, and nonbinary people. They successfully “put one foot in front of the other” to get through life, but feel constantly on edge or numb. I love working with helpers. If you tend to have room in your day and your life for everyone but yourself, and you want to know why you do that and HOW TO STOP IT (ok...realistically, do it less often, you're still going to be a caring and generous person after all), I'm the therapist for you.

Specializing in trauma recovery, major life transitions, LGBTQ+ experiences, and the beautiful messiness of relationships, I believe therapy should feel like both a warm hug and a creative breakthrough. Whether we’re untangling generational patterns, embracing self-discovery, or turning setbacks into comebacks, our work together will be a dynamic mix of reflection, empowerment, and maybe even some unexpected “aha” moments.
My clients are artists and creatives- neurodivergent, highly sensitive "black-sheep" healing from complex trauma and longing to live authentically in a toxic culture. You may find yourself stuck in distressing patterns that are affecting your relationships, self-worth and health. Together we can explore how these patterns actually make sense given your lived experience. We will reduce shame making space for compassion & healing.

I primarily work with individuals and couples who have highly stressful careers that are ready to do what's necessary to experience real and lasting change. Together we'll face what's felt too much, explore the impact and the meanings made of the past while building a future centered around freedom, fulfillment and joy.
Divorce can feel like make you feel like your life is out of control; like someone or some thing picked up the snow globe of your life and shook it. Now all the pieces are flying around and everything feels overwhelming, uncertain. You don’t know how to put things back together again and are maybe not even sure you really want to. It can feel like you will never be happy again. Divorce is hard and often it's really shitty.
In this increasingly “good vibes only” culture, do you feel that you need to hide parts of yourself in order to fit in or be included in the group? Do you feel like you’re either too much or not enough? Like you’re the black sheep in your family or with your friends? You may have been thrown into an adult role as a child, having to emotionally care for your parent or caregiver, at the expense of your own emotional development, growth, or even safety. If this sounds familiar, there is hope.
I work with individuals and couples navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, eating disorders, trauma, attachment styles, identity exploration, and life transitions. I’m especially committed to supporting those whose struggles often go unnoticed, including LGBTQIA+ individuals. My approach is grounded in empathy, self-compassion, and practical tools to help you build a kinder relationship with yourself and move forward with clarity.

I strive to come from a place of compassion and empathy because, as humans, we all have patterns, messages, and lessons that show up in our lives. The more conscious and mindful we can become of these patterns, the more freedom we can have from them. My goal in therapy is to utilize evidence-based treatments to help you understand these themes so that you can gain the tools, insights, and skills necessary to live the life you want.
Complex or relational trauma can show up as overwhelming emotions, depression, anxiety, or problems building or keeping relationships. It can also show up as symptoms of post traumatic stress or PTSD. Whether you need help navigating current stress, or processing and resolving problems rooted in past experiences, we can work together to build skills to manage emotions in the present while uncovering glimmers of hope to move forward through darkness toward healing.
My clients are intelligent, insightful, caring, and generous people who feel turned upside down in their relationships. Some are in marriages that stopped working a long time ago and they want to make things better. Some have betrayed themselves and their loved ones with sexual behaviors that even they don't understand. And some are the partners of sex addicts, trying to figure out whether or not to work it out. My clients are amazing, compassionate people who want the best life they can have!
I am an AASECT certified Sex Therapist, who works with individuals and couples who identify as LGBTQIA+, Kinky, Sex Workers, or practice Polyamory/Consensual Non-monogamy. I help any client interested in experiencing a more fulfilling relationship with sexuality or gender and is looking to heal from trauma.

Are you struggling to cope with life transitions? Many of us are experiencing significant anxiety due to changing work environments, parenting children who aren’t in school or attempting to navigate the changing social conditions. Are you feeling stressed by a traumatic event? Perhaps you are experiencing a divorce, have family conflicts or are alone as an empty nester. These circumstances can impact your connection with family, colleagues, and most importantly, the relationship with yourself.
I see many people who are overwhelmed with their day-to-day life, and often because of this, their important relationships have begun to slip away from them. They long for close, grounded relationships that enable them to experience more of the best parts of life.
