I love getting to know my clients as a starting point for therapy so we can incorporate their interests into treatment. Everyone has unique needs, wants, and goals, and I embrace each person as they are to help them move toward those goals. I work with individuals experiencing trauma, addiction, depression, anxiety, and personality disorders, supporting them in building a more positive future while accepting their past. I also encourage clients to explore their challenges from new perspectives to gain deeper understanding and create meaningful change.

Oftentimes, it is helpful to be reminded that emotional peace and happiness are possible. I strive to create a safe and accepting environment where individuals can fully explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a meaningful way. The purpose of therapy is to embark on a path that will help you find balance within yourself and with the interpersonal relationships that you value. Although therapy can be challenging, it can also yield rewards for those who are willing to be consistent, vulnerable, and engaged.

Healing can happen in many ways—not just through talk, but through creative expression, movement, and exploration. I work with clients ready to engage in a safe, supportive space to process trauma, explore emotions, and express themselves freely. Whether through art, poetry, dance, or improv, my goal is to help you release what your body and mind may still hold and move toward a greater sense of freedom and well-being.

Healing is never easy, but you will never have to do it alone. I have a huge passion for seeing people heal and grow into the person they didn’t feel they could become. I strive to create a safe space for anyone who takes the courageous step to share their story with me, as I know this is not an easy ask from anyone. I always strive to create a judgment free, open, and caring space where you can be yourself and challenge anything in your life. My office is colorful, often full of laughter and sometimes tears (comfort items included), and my genuine personality.

My mission is to empower clients with knowledge about themselves and their strengths. Furthermore, I will work clients to help them identify their truth as it relates to their lives. I seek to help clients pull from within themselves the strength needed to persevere and overcome daily life obstacles and struggles. I hope to have clients find their own strength to work through their issues. I aspire for clients to celebrate the small wins and use that to push them to greater gains.

Healing is a journey, not an event, and it starts by forging a new path, doing things differently. I believe we are a collection of our experiences. We learn to change our actions or suppress our feelings to fit the expectations of others. Sometimes, the culmination of these experiences can leave us feeling unbalanced, not ourselves. In these seasons of uncertainty, we yearn for change but aren’t sure how to make that happen.

Many experiences in life can motivate us to look for support―a difficult current or past relationship, overwhelming stress, unprocessed trauma, or maybe just a sense of being stuck. You aren't alone. My hope is that you find in me a nonjudgmental, caring presence to listen and help you process whatever pain or disconnection you might be experiencing. My aim is to guide you toward the wholeness you seek.

Life has a way of surprising us. Sometimes it’s a single major upheaval; other times it’s a pileup of smaller stresses that hit all at once. The beliefs we grew up with may stop supporting us and instead create conflict, confusion, or even trauma. Old wounds can resurface and take over our emotional landscape. And although these experiences can feel isolating, they’re far more common than most people realize.

My ideal therapy participants are men and teenage boys navigating identity, purpose, relationships, and the pressure to constantly perform, provide, or suppress what they feel. Many come to therapy carrying anxiety, depression, compulsive behaviors, anger, loneliness, or unresolved past experiences while trying to survive in a world that often leaves men disconnected, emotionally isolated, and without real support. Too often, men are taught to endure instead of understand themselves — expected to succeed without ever being shown how to process pain, vulnerability, or uncertainty in healthy ways.
