Finding a therapist can feel more overwhelming than continuing to bear the weight of stress and anxiety alone. Questions of identity, difficulty finding meaning, and navigating life’s transitions can often feel insurmountable on your own. Wondering if you’re going to show up to meet a therapist only to be judged, invalidated, or minimized can make you want to stop the search before you even start. My goal is to provide you with a warm and nonjudgmental space to explore and join with you in the h...
I am a certified EMDR clinician, specializing in trauma and attachment work. I value the therapeutic relationship and believe that clients need to feel safe enough in therapy in order to dig deep and do the work. While I work with adolescents through adulthood, I work primarily with women ages 18-50....
Central to my client care philosophy is the belief in providing a safe, non-judgmental, and empathetic space for clients to explore their thoughts, emotions, and challenges. Each client interaction is approached with sensitivity, respect, and a genuine desire to understand their unique needs and experiences. By building a strong therapeutic alliance, I collaborate with clients to develop tailored treatment plans that address their specific concerns and work towards meaningful and sustainable gro...

Thank you for considering my counseling services. My work is grounded in the belief that change, growth, and healing best occurs through a caring, collaborative, holistic, and warm space.

I seek to understand, increase awareness, improve interpersonal skills and encourage growth. As a mental health counselor, I draw from a number of perspectives including attachment, ...
You’re the go-to person - the one everyone relies on. Your friends and family see you as competent, put-together, and strong. And while that’s helped you achieve, the pressure to meet such high expectations is exhausting. You spend so much time caring for other people’s needs that your own get lost in the process. Saying no feels like a risk. What if the relationship falls apart? What if they see the real you and decide it’s not enough? On the outside, your life looks great. Inside, you’re strug...

I believe that a collaborative approach and a genuine therapeutic relationship serve as the foundation for immense personal growth and change. I approach therapy through warmth and compassion, striving to create a safe and non-judgmental space from which to explore emotions, life patterns, and areas for growth. I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults and college students experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, loss, relationship challenges, and trauma. I have worked in...
My approach is warm, perceptive, and clarifying. I primarily use the IFS model, which posits that we each contain an ecology of different parts that each have a valuable role to play within us. When these parts develop roles that are in conflict with one another, or with our external world, we can experience distress, confusion, disconnection, and shame. I work with clients to explore these areas with curiosity, compassion, and courage in service to promoting greater ease and sense of meaning in...
Your plate is more than full. You’re struggling with managing it all at once. Whether college, work, family, a declining family member or your own medical illness, things are hard. Life can feel overwhelming. You’re exhausted. You put other’s needs in front of your own. You keep pushing these feelings down and telling yourself “it’ll be okay” because you can’t take on JUST. ONE. MORE. THING. You may smile and say “I’m good thanks” when asked but know inside you’re not as good as you lead on. You...
You long to exude confidence and clarity, presenting an image of having everything under control. Yet, beneath the surface, you grapple with feelings of overwhelm, doubt, and self-questioning. You find yourself yearning for something more, perhaps feeling weary of insecurity, fatigue, or disappointment in yourself or others. It's possible that you can't recall a time when things didn't feel this way. Nevertheless, one thing remains certain: you're seeking a reprieve. You're eager to experience c...

I'm an LGBT+ and neurodiversity affirming provider based out of Sarasota, FL. I use an integrative approach that considers the role of both mind and body, as I believe neither are fully separate and both are equally important to mental health. Treatment modalities I may use include CBT, EMDR, mindfulness, and holistic coaching. My approach is very client-centered and I believe every client has the right to choose their own treatment path and collaborate together on what that plan looks like. ...
