I strive to help clients with both their daily ongoing stressors, while still identifying and working towards their long-term goals and commitments. I enjoy working with adolescents 16+ and adults of all ages, particularly those who are going through major transitions in their life, or coming to new realizations about themselves in any phase of life. I am a queer and neurodivergent identified and affirming therapist. I encourage you to reach out if you are looking for a therapist that can both hold quiet space, as well as push and challenge you in appropriate ways.

My work in the mental health field started more than 20 years ago when I provided crisis support to first responders and the people they served. My clinical training started with educational psychology and over the years my focus shifted to working with adults and couples as I pursued my doctorate in clinal psychology. The focus of my practice has always been on providing trauma informed care to individuals who seek to address the impact of life stressors or traumatic events to better understand themselves and their patterns of relating to others.

You're the one people call when things fall apart. You're good at it — steady, competent, the person who knows what to do. And somewhere along the way you stopped having anywhere to put your own stuff.

So you can run the meeting, hold the crisis, answer the phone at 2 a.m. — and still not be able to make yourself open the mail. Competence and collapse live together far more often than anyone admits out loud.

I work with adults carrying that particular load: substance use and recovery, emotions that arrive at full volume with no dimmer switch, thoughts of self-harm or not wanting to be here, and the specific erosion that comes from caring for other people for a living. Helpers, clinicians, parents, first responders — people whose exhaustion doesn't have an obvious place to go. I work with teenagers too, often the ones in families like these.

My style is direct, warm, and collaborative. I'm not going to nod quietly for fifty minutes. We'll find what's actually driving things, build skills you can use on a Tuesday afternoon when it counts, and I'll tell you honestly what I'm seeing. You set the pace. I'll bring the structure.
