I have always been passionate about helping people find solutions to complex problems. As a therapist, I help you find the clarity you need to make big decisions, navigate life transitions, and process emotionally difficult experiences. I have experience in outpatient therapy clinics as well as experience in residential settings with people who are living with PTSD. Our initial session will be a discussion about what brings you to therapy and what you’d like to change. Our work will be collaborative; you will have choice and autonomy along the way.

Experiencing a loss or trauma can feel alienating and leave you lacking connection. Maybe you have experienced a loss/trauma while also navigating pregnancy, postpartum or infertility. Maybe you are or were military or a First Responder but don't feel supported by the systems in place to "help". You might want to feel different but struggle to navigate the how. Or the opposite you understand the how, you have done lots of therapy and continue to feel like you are not making the progress you wish. Whether you've never been to therapy before or you have tried it before but feel stuck; you are in the right place.
