Are you often feeling like your past is in your present? Impacting everything from your ability to cope with day to day stressors to romantic relationships or even your relationship with yourself? I know that very feeling. Feeling as though you have healed from past experiences only to have them show up unexpectedly in different ways impacting how you move forward in life. This can often leave clients anxious, depressed and scared of the future. I want clients to know they can heal!!!

I work with clients aged 6 years to 70 individually, within families and soon I will launch a grief therapy group. Specific issues I have knowledge treating include anxiety, depression, grief over loss, low self-worth, eating disorders, negative body image and interpersonal issues within families and intimate relationships. I am in the process of learning about NPD in order to help victims of narcissistic abuse and neglect to heal and end those patterns of abuse.
18+ years experience providing psychotherapy to clients ages 13+ with a broad range of concerns. I work well with clients who seek support, guidance, and and encouragement necessary to create and maintain value based action each day (living with purpose). Clients tell me they are comforted and motivated by the empathetic, down-to-earth, and solution focused style I offer. I am passionate about creating a strong therapeutic alliance with all clients as the foundation for meaningful change.
My clients often feel stuck in patterns of anxiety, trauma, or relationship struggles. Many are survivors of narcissistic abuse, navigating complex relationships, or working through life transitions. I work with adults, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and nontraditional relationships, offering a space that is affirming, trauma-informed, and practical. If you’re ready to deepen self-trust, heal past wounds, and create meaningful change, I’d love to support you.
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 need help in figuring out why, and how, you make the choices you make I can help. Need assistance addressing an issue? I can help. If you're kinky, I can help. I understand the various structures and dynamics of power exchange. I am skilled at deciphering between healthy and unhealthy processes and relationships. If you are transitioning, I can help. If you are a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, I can help. If I am not the right person for you, I can help find the person that fits.
I work with clients who share a common desire: to break free from the grip of perfectionism & control, genuinely connect with others and live in-alignment with their values. Many of my clients are women who are self-diagnosed/newly diagnosed with Autism, ADHD, or AuDHD, and they're ready to embrace their authentic selves. In our sessions, my clients enjoy a blend of humor & compassion, creating a space where they feel understood and supported on their journey towards acceptance & fulfillment.
Maybe you and your partner are considering opening your relationship to others, or you already practice polyamory or consensual nonmonogamy (CNM). Let’s work together to discover how you, as the individual or partners, want that to look & feel. Overarchingly, I value helping my clients examine their own boundaries & needs, while learning to manage difficulties created by anxiety & fear. These feelings are natural responses, but they can sometimes feel overwhelming and upsetting. Let’s talk!
Do you struggle with intimacy, with low sexual desire or dysfunction? Are you a couple that experiences the same old conflicts, have difficulty communicating or just aren't having the connection/sexual relationship you want? Has your world been rocked by partner betrayal, whether it be an affair or something else? Do you struggle with esteem/feeling worthy? Then you're in the right place! I can help w/sexual desire discrepancy/dysfunction, w/affair recovery and other relational issues.
Anxiety is exhausting and can feel completely overwhelming. I look forward to teaching you new skills that will lead to relief of these symptoms! OCD is an extreme form of anxiety, and there are tools that work including ERP therapy, mindulness and more. In addition, past unresolved traumatic memories are often the root of compulsive/obsessive thinking. EMDR therapy is a way out of this. I look forward to working together to find just the right tools for you.

Do you often feel anxious, sad, or stuck? Maybe you're having trouble in relationships or with your family, dealing with the effects of a difficult experience, or going through a tough period. It could be that you're questioning your identity or facing challenges from societal or family pressures while trying to discover your true self. Life doesn't always have to be so difficult. I will support you where you are and guide you toward becoming the person you want to be.
My ideal client is someone who is wanting to make changes and appreciates a direct, but empathetic approach that will sometimes include humor. As a therapist, I will not give you advice but rather help you identify maladaptive patterns, coping skills, behaviors, etc. and work with you on changing those things that are a barrier to happiness and contentment. I believe my clients are their own experts and as such, believe they should drive their treatment and their goals.
