My practice is focused on helping unique individuals understand and accept themselves and engage in healthy relationships while still maintaining individuality. I work with those who don’t always feel like they fit in a box or align with society’s expectations regarding their relationships, career, and personal pursuits. My areas of specialty include: anxiety, religious trauma, relationship issues, self-esteem, chronic illness, and issues specific to creatives and highly sensitive people.

We specialize in working with veterans and first responders who are going through difficult times in their lives and need to regain their sense of balance. Whether it's transitioning into the civilian world, healing from their professional experiences, or moving on from unhealthy dynamics, we work with people who want to get their lives in better shape and strengthen their personal relationships.
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with over 12 years of experience. I have professional certifications in career coaching and employee assistance, along with holistic training in meditation and mindfulness. I specialize in anxiety, depression, career and school issues, grief and life transitions, LGBTQ+ and relationship concerns, as well as self-esteem and stress.
I work predominantly with women and LGBTQIA+ people (and couples) working through relational issues & trauma and who are wanting to explore the origins of their distress. I also work with children and adolescents, incorporating interventions from play and art therapy. With my clients, I enjoy weaving through moments of healing insight and moments of intentional growth while honoring our changing needs and overall goals.
Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

If you are feeling lost, having difficulty understanding why you are feeling the way you do, or struggling to believe your own experiences are valid or “enough”, you’re not alone. Sometimes, we feel a deep sense that something is wrong and we need to attend to it, but we aren’t sure where to start, or what it is. You deserve a space to explore your experiences, yourself, and your relationships in a way that feels safer and meets you where you are.
I work with adult individuals and couples/partnered relationships from various backgrounds. I work with clients who have experienced trauma (sexual or non-sexual), are dealing with life transitions, issues regarding sexuality and sensuality, improving emotional awareness, and people wanting to improve/enhance their relationships. While I do work with clients from all backgrounds, I try to make space for those within the kink/BDSM, polyamorous and ENM, and LGBTQIA+ communities.
If you struggle in your relationships with friends, lovers, colleagues, partners, family, and even with yourself, you’ve come to the right place. I am passionate about helping people form deeper and healthier connections and relationships. I bring experience in treating a diverse range of people in areas which include queer and trans identity development, low self-esteem, sexual identity development, as well as family stressors and life transitions.
At Resilience Lab my clinical work is focused on caring for caregivers. They might be first-time parents, overstretched teachers, or anyone who puts significant time and energy toward caring for those in need. It’s a tough job that can feel isolating and invisible. Some common challenges my clients overcome include people-pleasing, burnout, and weak boundaries.
I work with individuals navigating emotional distress from trauma, anxiety, and relationship challenges. My clients often feel overwhelmed or stuck in old patterns and seek deeper emotional connections and understanding. I focus on helping them heal these patterns, fostering a sense of security within themselves and in their relationships.

I specialize in guiding individuals and couples through the healing process as they navigate the complexities of trauma and challenging relationships. Together we will explore your past experiences and understand how they influence your present life. This journey of self-discovery will empower you to enhance your connection with yourself and those you love.
I work with clients ages pre-teen through adulthood, and particularly love working with teens and young adults. Many of my clients have experienced traumatic childhoods or incidences throughout their lives, however that is certainly not a requirement to gain support through a trauma lens! Many of my clients are also seeking support with navigating relationship needs, life transitions, and deeper self understanding and growth.
Have you been struggling to understand your emotions, cope with changes or reduce depression, anxiety or guilt? Through encouragement and empowerment, we will work to cope with the challenges you face. With a HAES and anti-diet lens, I am passionate about working with both men and women to find and maintain freedom from their eating and co-occurring disorders by gently confronting barriers, building on strengths and challenging unhelpful relational and thought patterns.
It may seem that the world is throwing you more than you can practically or emotionally handle. I provide therapy individuals and couples who may be feeling overwhelmed, uncertain that they are on the right track, or concerned with how others perceive them. I have often worked with people who are distrusting of their gut, or feel like they don't fit in.

We welcome all ages: children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples. Together, we will uncover the origins of your struggles, work through deep-seated feelings, and create new behaviors to replace unproductive patterns. The goal is to empower you to use self-awareness to your advantage, rather than letting it work against you, as you learn to navigate life’s challenges and embrace opportunities with clarity and poise.
I help LGBTQ+ and ENM/polyamorous adults heal from social anxiety, sexual trauma, and relationship stressors. My clients come to me feeling scared and confused trying to understand their sexual and romantic identity. They feel lonely but still desire community. They feel frustrated that unprocessed relational trauma is getting in the way of accessing intimacy and connection with others or their partner(s). They want to feel seen and validated in all of their nuances and identities.
At Resilience Lab my clients are people navigating life transitions, learning to love their bodies, or questioning their gender identity and/or sexual orientation. Our time together might look like healing trauma, reconnecting with family, or using mindfulness exercises to create more bodily awareness. Through this process, I spend time with clients to discover the values and pieces of their identity making them who they are.
Geeks, nerds, hackers, burners, and makers are my specialty! Tired of having a therapist roll their eyes when you talk about gaming? Over it trying to explain that Discord is a chat server and not a state of disharmony? Feeling finished with people who don't understand online friendships are valid social support? You deserve a therapist who gets you in all of your delightful nerdiness and awkwardness. Therapy for geeks from a geek therapist might just be the support you're looking for.
