Sometimes we may feel unhappy, lonely, or a bit stuck and want something more for ourselves and our relationships. Through counseling, I can help you create a more meaningful and fulfilling life, while also decreasing feelings of discontent. Working together, we can establish a supportive, therapeutic connection that is tailored to your individual needs and challenges to help change your life for the better. We will identify the barriers that may be preventing you, your child, or your families from feeling happy and connected with others. Please feel welcome to schedule a consultation with me to chat about how we can get started.

It's not easy starting therapy and investing time in yourself, but you've already done the first step! My experience has primarily been focused in clients with eating disorders and co-occurring diagnoses. With that said, I also have extensive experience working with relationship challenges, anxiety, self-harm, and suicidality. I generally like to pull from my knowledge of various therapy modalities such as DBT, CBT, FBT and EFFT. I also really enjoy self-compassion work. Your goals are always my top priority, and I am here to support you every step of the way.

Outside of work, I enjoy live music, spending time with friends, and hanging out with my dogs, Nala and Toni. These personal interests help me stay grounded and bring balance to my life, which I believe is crucial for overall well-being.

If you're ready to take the next step, I'm here to help you navigate your journey towards healing and growth. Let's work together to achieve your goals!
