"Vulnerability is the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, courage, empathy, and creativity, it is the source of hope, empathy, accountability, and authenticity." -Brene Brown.

If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, disordered eating, body dysmorphia, or feel a general sense of unworthiness, please know that you are not alone and there is help.

Life changes and trauma can lead to disconnection from ourselves and others. This disconnection can manifest as anxiety, depression, and loneliness. Through therapy, we can untangle the changes and trauma so we can truly hear ourselves. Our work might include emotional processing and regulation, self-compassion, self-acceptance, and mind-body awareness. At each step, I will check in with you and guide the pacing to fit your needs and goals. (See my website for more information.) Authorized to practice in all PsyPact states via telepsychology.

There are a number of things that can create feelings of hopelessness, overwhelm, anxiety and stress. Changes and transition in our lives, our perceptions of self, and challenges within our relationships may inspire a desire for further insight and understanding of what we find important as well as how we might like to grow. Through counseling, you may begin exploring stuck points and areas of growth, supporting you in finding relief from emotional pain and in cultivating self-compassion - increasing your ability to cope with challenging situations and circumstances as you experience them.

Have you been nervous or reluctant to go to therapy? Not sure if you "need it?" If you have a desire to connect more deeply with yourself or others, then therapy might be for you (note: I believe we can all benefit from talking with someone). If you want to overcome past trauma(s), are struggling with addictions, have difficulty regulating emotions, have codependency issues, or have been involved with the criminal justice system (both as law enforcement or as an incarcerated person), this is where you can begin your journey of understanding, forgiving, and connecting with yourself and others in a more meaningful way.

You may have something specific you want to focus on or you may just need a supportive space to talk to someone who will listen. Everyone is welcome regardless of what brought you here.
