About

People choose to come to therapy for a variety of reasons. Do you find yourself feeling depressed or overwhelmed? Do you want to worry less and enjoy life more? Do you want to have better control of your emotions? Maybe you’re struggling to have meaningful, lasting relationships. Whatever your reason, I’m here to provide a safe and affirming space for you to explore, learn, and create a new way of approaching the world and relationships. My approach to counseling is collaborative and trauma-informed. I utilize emotion-focused, attachment centered strategies to help people identify how past experiences and relationships influence how they respond to others and the world. I have experience in treating mood disorders, eating disorders, body image concerns, substance use issues, life transitions, relationship issues, and trauma. I believe connection is essential for healing- we never do big things alone! The power of the therapeutic relationship is essential to achieve the change you are looking for. I strive to provide a safe and nonjudgmental space for you to explore life’s challenges.
