It’s easy to lose your sense of direction, especially when life pulls you away from what once felt clear or important. I work with individuals who feel stuck, uncertain, or unsure how to move forward. You might be questioning your choices, your path, or your place in the world. These experiences often come with anxiety, depression, relationship stress, or a sense of loneliness. In our work together, we’ll focus on helping you reconnect with what matters most and begin moving forward with more clarity and intention. Sessions include both reflection and practical steps, helping you better understand yourself while also creating a path forward. My approach is grounded, supportive, and collaborative. We’ll explore patterns, clarify your values, and work toward changes that feel realistic and aligned with who you are. Over time, clients often feel more confident in their decisions, more steady in themselves, and better able to navigate uncertainty. If you’re considering therapy, I offer a free consultation so we can talk through what you’re looking for and see if we’re a good fit.

If someone is struggling with today's news and events, surviving a difficult upbringing, or wrestling with issues of identity, the best thing they can do for themselves is to find that safe, affirming space that allows them to speak freely without fear of judgement. My goal is to provide the emotional, physical, and affirming space for that very thing to happen. My clientele consists of students, mental health professionals, veterans, seniors, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community. I hold master's degrees in trauma informed counseling and the arts. Sometimes individuals have a block and the words are difficult to find. A more creative process can often reveal nonverbal cues and metaphors that can deepen understanding and healing. I help clients use imagery, symbolism, and creative expression to uncover meaning and insight. I currently work with individuals ages 8 and up, I have worked with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, grief and loss, life transitions, and trauma-related issues. I bring creativity, compassion, warmth, and a genuine desire to provide affirmation, and occasionally humor to foster a safe, affirming, and empowering environment.

After struggling with anxiety or depression for long enough, you may start to feel stuck. Anxiety and depression can make us think and act in ways that ironically leave us feeling even more anxious and depressed, creating a kind of "vicious cycle." Fortunately, advances in evidence-based therapies have given rise to interventions that can reliably interrupt this cycle, so you can stop struggling and start living. I work with my clients using cognitive-behavioral and humanistic approaches, and incorporate mindfulness-based interventions to decrease the impact of challenging thoughts and emotions, while simultaneously increasing engagement with who and what matters most. Your values and goals will guide our work together every step of the way.

I also believe that there can be therapeutic value in humor during the hard work of therapy. You can visit my website to learn more by clicking on the link.
