I’m a therapist who supports individuals and couples through pregnancy, postpartum, and the transition into parenthood. As a mom myself, I understand that this season can bring incredible joy, but also stress, anxiety, overwhelm, relationship changes, and emotions that can be difficult to talk about.

I work with women, men, and couples to better understand what they’re experiencing, strengthen communication, and navigate this life transition together. Whether you’re struggling personally, trying to support your partner, or feeling disconnected as a couple, you don’t have to figure it all out alone.

My goal is to provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can feel heard, supported, and understood

Therapy isn't about fixing who you are. It's about understanding what's getting in your way. I'm Scott, a Licensed Professional Counselor with nine years of experience helping people navigate anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, trauma, and the challenges that come with different stages of life. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, struggling with self-confidence, or noticing the same patterns showing up in your relationships, my goal is to help you gain a better understanding of yourself and find a way forward.

I believe therapy should be a place where you feel comfortable being yourself while also making meaningful progress. My style is straightforward, collaborative, and practical. I enjoy helping people recognize their strengths, challenge perspectives that may be holding them back, and develop greater confidence in handling life's challenges. You don't have to have everything figured out to begin making positive changes.
