Are you navigating general stressors, life transitions, complicated family dynamics, or parenting challenges? If so, I’m here to listen, validate, and ask thought-provoking questions. We can explore your story with curiosity and process life’s ups and downs. My goal is to help you build awareness and gain a deeper understanding of yourself. Are you navigating general stressors, life transitions, complicated family dynamics, or parenting challenges? If so, I’m here to listen, validate, and ask thought-provoking questions. We can explore your story with curiosity and process life’s ups and downs. My goal is to help you build awareness and gain a deeper understanding of yourself. In our work, we’ll talk about what's on your mind, reframe unhelpful thoughts, and reflect on childhood experiences, patterns of thinking and behavior, and deeply held beliefs. We’ll identify barriers, strengthen coping skills, and uncover insights that support growth and new perspectives. As a helper by nature, working professional, mother of two, and oldest of four, I understand the complexity of juggling many roles. My healthcare experience has shown me the strength people bring to hard moments, fueling my passion for supporting parents, helping professionals, and those navigating the complexities of being human.

I believe therapy works best when it feels safe, honest, and collaborative. My approach is warm, direct, and grounded in helping you understand not only what you are struggling with, but why certain patterns keep showing up in your life. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, depression, addiction, relationship stress, and major life transitions. Many people come to therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or tired of repeating the same cycles. Together, we slow things down, identify what is happening beneath the surface, and build practical tools for lasting change. My style combines evidence-based therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) informed trauma work, mindfulness, and a person-centered approach. I do not believe therapy is about judgment, blame, or being told what to do. It is about creating space to understand yourself more clearly, process painful experiences, and begin making choices that align with the life you want. I also bring years of experience working in treatment settings, which has shaped my belief that healing is possible even when things feel complicated or deeply rooted. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, trauma, addiction, or relationship concerns, my goal is to help you feel less alone, more grounded, and more capable of moving forward.

I understand the weight of depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues. If you’re coping with the impact of trauma, addiction, or general stress, it’s time to get some relief. It’s easy to get stuck in negative patterns of thinking, feeling, or behaving. Your relationships, confidence, or self-worth may be at risk. If you want different results, you have to do something different. Talking to somebody about what’s going on might be that something. I started my practice, North Star Therapy, with the goal of improving the quality of life for those who struggle with mental health issues. Together we will navigate life’s challenges. I will use my clinical expertise to shine light on some solutions and help you accomplish your goals. Let me be your guide toward health, happiness, and healing. You can come by the office, talk over the phone, or do therapy through secure video conferencing. The office environment is dedicated to your comfort and healing. Hope to hear from you soon!
