Therapist

For the last 8 years, I've had the privilege of helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, family challenges, and the moments in life that leave you feeling stuck or disconnected from yourself. I also support concerns including grief, OCD, panic, ADHD, and identity. My work is grounded in the belief that healing involves the whole person—mind and body. I bring warmth, curiosity, compassion, and humor into therapy while helping you recognize your strengths and create meaningful change. As Brene Brown says, "You can choose courage, or you can choose comfort. You can't have both".
