Do you feel misunderstood, disconnected from yourself, or weighed down by past experiences? You may be trying to keep things together while feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of yourself. No one is born knowing how to navigate life’s big (or small) challenges. You don’t have to figure it out alone. I help my clients slow things down, untangle what they’re feeling, and reconnect with themselves, while offering practical tools to make sense of their experiences and build helpful skills. As a therapist, I am genuine, approachable, and value humor as a form of medicine. Do you feel misunderstood, disconnected from yourself, or weighed down by past experiences?

I help my clients slow things down, untangle what they’re feeling, and reconnect with themselves, while offering practical tools to make sense of their experiences and build helpful skills. As a therapist, I am genuine, approachable, and value humor as a form of medicine. You deserve to feel seen as a whole person rather than defined by a diagnosis or a single chapter of their life. My background in Mobile Crisis Response has taught me to listen closely to what people are saying, as well as to what may be harder to name. I help clients think through options that feel both emotionally right and realistically doable. We all share a core desire to feel safe, supported, and able to live a healthy, meaningful life. If you’re ready to take an active role in your healing, I’d love to support you.

Treatment Approach

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Combines CBT with mindfulness to help regulate emotions, tolerate stress, and build stronger relationships. Originally designed for borderline personality disorder, it’s now used more broadly.
  • Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.
