About
People who want to climb Mt. Everest and make it back safely often hire a highly skilled guide—frequently one of the famous indigenous people, the Sherpas—to help them find their way and carry some of the baggage. Here, if your daily life is feeling like a long, hard climb up a steep mountain, similar assistance is available in the form of therapists such as myself, who have made that climb hundreds of times, know the way, and are experienced handlers of baggage. If you need a skilled companion, I would be honored to join your expedition.

As a survivor of many adverse childhood experiences, I have an authentic understanding of the impact trauma can have throughout our lives, and the healing that is possible in safe, non-judgmental therapy.
I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 13 years of experience working in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I support teens and adults navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, substance use, prenatal and postpartum concerns, and major life transitions. I am passionate about helping clients feel less overwhelmed and more empowered as they work toward meaningful and lasting change.
I earned my master’s degree in community and counseling psychology from Sage Graduate School. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and intentional, grounded in trauma-informed care. I utilize evidence-based modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy.
I believe the therapeutic relationship is one of the most powerful agents of change. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can strengthen coping skills, deepen self-awareness, and reconnect with your values. I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing and inner peace.

You are more than what you’re struggling with, and I’m here to help you better understand yourself and build skills for a healthier, more confident future.
