You may look like you’re holding everything together, while internally feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unlike yourself. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Registered Art Therapist, I work primarily with women and mothers navigating pregnancy, postpartum, motherhood, and major life transitions—including anxiety, intrusive thoughts, OCD, depression, rage, mood changes, birth trauma, relationship changes, and loss of identity. Together, we’ll slow down, understand what’s beneath the surface, and develop practical ways to feel more grounded, connected, and like yourself again.
If something feels off, heavy, or stuck, you're in the right place. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, body image, emotional eating, addiction recovery, and major life changes including perimenopause and menopause. Together we build practical tools and self-compassion that create meaningful, lasting change. I'd love to help you figure out what's next.
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. Beginning or continuing therapy can feel like a big step, and my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, validated, and genuinely understood.
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Registered Art Therapist (ATR) with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship concerns, and other life stressors. I have a particular interest in supporting LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent clients. I am also a mother with extensive clinical experience working with children, teens, and their families.
Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and able to serve clients in the states of FL, AK, MO, and MA. I am passionate about working with adults who are ready to explore their vulnerabilities and become better versions of themselves. I understand that taking that first step to ask for help is the hardest, and that all the hurt, frustration, and pain that brought you to this point are all valid! In my office you can expect to be able to share your experiences in an open and safe environment.
I like to create a environment of comfort, compassion ,humor and love with a system that is simple and easy to understand.Using various techniques and expertise, I will help you develop a practice and plan that allows you to manage, live a life of presence ,find a sense of freedom.
As a licensed substance use and addiction counselor, I believe that recovery is not a one-size-fits-all journey—it’s a deeply personal process that deserves compassion, respect, and hope. Every individual’s story is unique, and so are the reasons behind their struggles with substance use. My approach is rooted in the belief that healing happens when people feel truly seen, heard, and supported without judgment. I view my role not as someone who tells clients what recovery “should” look like, but as a guide who helps them discover what recovery means for them.
Most people arrive at therapy carrying something they've never said out loud. My job is to make saying it possible by being someone worth trusting with it.
I've been a practicing counselor for over a decade. I also teach and supervise the next generation of therapists, which keeps me sharp and current. But experience and credentials aren't what makes the work good. What makes therapy work is that I'm a real person in the room with you: direct when that helps, quiet when that helps more. I will never ask you to do something I'm not willing to do myself.
My education isn't limited to my degrees. My clients have taught me more about resilience, compassion, and what it means to live fully than any program did. I hold that as sacred, and I take you as seriously as I take that.
As a Master's level therapist(MSW) and Licensed Alcohol & Drug Counselor I(LADC I) with 20 years of experience treating substance use disorders, I understand the anguish addiction causes. I treat substance addictions and mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, bipolar disorder, personality disorders and other addictions such as nicotine, gambling & gaming. You decide your level of recovery. No pressure. Questions? Please ask me!
I work with people of all ages who are trying to make sense of what's going on in their lives and figure out what needs to change. They may be dealing with stress, relationship difficulties, major transitions, attention or learning difficulties, or patterns they've struggled to change on their own. Before becoming a therapist, I spent years working in business and other practical, people-focused roles, which gave me a firsthand understanding of the competing demands and pressures of everyday life.
As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. I've been practicing for 15 years, and my main focus is to help alleviate your pain, whether it be from depression, anxiety, trauma, or dissociation. I've excelled myself in and places great value on serving clients from diverse racial, gender, and sexual backgrounds. I am Deaf and fluent in American Sign Language.
