Individuals
YOU DESERVE TO FEEL JOYFUL.
Maybe you're in a constant state of questioning yourself and your worth. Maybe nothing seems to be going your way. Maybe you are dealing with some really heavy sh** right now and need some support. If any of these ring true for you, I'd be honored to help.
Areas of Focus
Therapy for Men
Guys, you deserve therapy, too. I have experience working with men's issues, including anxiety, depression, masculinity, identity issues, fatherhood, and learning how to better communicate your needs. Here, you'll find a space that honors your perspective and doesn't try to "fix" you, but instead helps you identify what you need and how to communicate it.
Are you constantly questioning your worth outside of your performance? Do you tend to fixate on the things you want to control? If so, you aren't alone. Perfectionism can be highly engrained in our self-concept and can serve us well – until it doesn't. If you've reached a point where you want to make a change, you've come to the right place.
Perfectionism & Self Worth
Anxiety
Is your anxiety brain trying to control your life? Are you constantly struggling with unwanted thoughts and worries? Let's talk about the ways we can separate YOU from your anxiety and quiet the thoughts that aren't serving you in your daily life. Anxiey can feel like a beast, but I'm here to tell you that there is hope for a quieter, more peaceful mind.
Figuring out who you are (and who you want to be) can feel so daunting, especially when events in our lives make us question our sense of self. In therapy, we'll identify the things that make you, YOU – all while learning to cherish those parts of yourself that are authentic and beautiful.
Identity
Motherhood
Whether you're newly pregnant, dreaming of being a mom, or have been a mother for years, it's always an ongoing process of managing a million things at once and finding your ever-changing identity amidst the chaos. We often give so much to those around us and forget ourselves in the process. Let's care for you, too, mama.

I use a combination of talk-therapy and IFS in my work with motherhood. I am pursuing EMDR certification this fall and will be slowly integrating that into my practice.
My Approach
My work with individuals is rooted in a combination of training and personal experience. I use a holistic approach to therapy, meaning I look at you as a whole person and tailor my approach to your individual needs. I consider therapy a partnership and wholeheartedly believe that you have an equal say in how we approach your goals. In our work together, I might bring in things like IFS (Internal Family Systems), Attachment Theory, Narrative Therapy, and Expressive Arts Therapy.
