When you're tired of pretending everything's fine, I'm here.
Life throws a lot at us — addiction, complicated relationships, self-doubt, even the quiet pressure to hold it all together when you're barely staying afloat. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand, you're not alone. I help people untangle the mess — whether it's addiction, eating concerns, low self-esteem, or the aftermath of military experiences — and build a life that feels more peaceful, connected, and true to who they are.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I draw from CBT, DBT-informed tools, and psychoanalytic therapy to create a treatment plan that actually fits you. No one-size-fits-all solutions here. My style is warm, gentle, and steady — you’ll never feel rushed or judged in our sessions. Instead, you’ll find a space where you can exhale, speak freely, and start healing in your own way.
Whether you’re in recovery, navigating strained relationships, or trying to repair the way you talk to yourself — therapy can be the turning point. My goal is to help you feel more in control of your life, more grounded in your choices, and more confident in your relationships. We’ll work together to strengthen your sense of self, develop tools that work in real life, and rewrite the story that’s been holding you back.
Outside of work, I’m probably curled up with a book, soaking up time with family, or riding rollercoasters just for the joy of it. I believe laughter is healing, support is essential, and therapy should feel like something you want to show up for — not something you dread. Let’s walk through this together.
