Many times in life we come to find that we can no longer avoid. Avoid that person, that event, that memory, that feeling. It’s normal to want to just get through things, to survive, to say that we are “ok”. Sometimes, we don’t feel okay and that’s okay. No matter what you’re going through,I truly believe that a safe, warm, nonjudgmental space can help you to process, feel, and release the old patterns that have caused you to feel stuck. I hope to guide you towards authenticity, transparency, an...

Establishing a strong working relationship is essential to positive therapeutic outcomes. I firmly believe that therapy works best when you match well on a personal level. Adjusting to college is hard. There's a lot of pressure to do well academically, socially, personally...and it can be helpful to have an unbiased person to vent to and talk about what you're struggling with. I specialize in treating individuals struggling with primary and secondary trauma. I use a multifaceted approach...
