You’re a badass woman who, from the outside, has her shit together. People might even be envious of your achievements. You excel at setting goals and achieving them. You are determined, high achieving, and set high expectations for yourself. But internally? You overthink, worry, and panic. You might even be uncomfortable with feelings. You're anxious. You feel intense pressure to do things perfectly. You've been known to be a people-pleaser and struggle to set boundaries with people in your life...

I view counseling as a collaborative effort between client and counselor, with my role being predominantly to provide a safe space for introspection, discovery, and growth, while offering targeted interventions to assist and support clients through the process. I see value in approaches that empower clients to see the abilities they already possess, such as person-centered therapy and narrative therapy, and seek to meet every client where they are with a diverse toolkit of theoretical approaches...

Do you feel overwhelmed, like no matter what you do it is never good enough to please the person you love: so you defend yourself, shut down, or turn away in your relationship? You feel frustrated and stuck. You are exhausted from feeling misunderstood, fighting over the same issues over and ...

BASE Cognitive Behavioral is a specialist practice that focuses on evidence based treatment for a range of mental health needs. In my own approach, I have seen time and time again that each person is doing the very best they can to survive difficult life experiences. We each develop ways of coping with our world, but often get caught up in our own internal struggle to push away feelings of depression, anxiety, or self-doubt. My passion is helping people drop this “struggle” with themselves throu...

I specialize in working with the LGBTQIA+ community because I am part of that community. You should never have to educate, defend or explain your identity to your therapist and you should never have to worry about having that identity invalidated. You are more than your gender and orientation but those identities need to be affirmed. My focus as your therapist is to give you the tools you need to have just one day where you are not overwhelmed with anxiety, fear, shame- whatever it is that fe...
