You are tired of how things have been going. You are ready to begin taking personal inventory to figure out what’s working and what is no longer serving you. Whether its issues related to parenting, trouble processing trauma, or difficulties managing anxiety, you are ready to learn more about yourself and what your needs are in this current season of life. You want to build a new view of yourself and find ways to improve the relationships of those that matter most in your life. You want to build on your strengths and become more knowledgeable about your thought processes and behaviors.
I specialize in parent therapy, teen therapy, and relational therapy. I provide an integrated approach that adjusts to the individual client’s needs. We will gain an understanding of how the brain impacts behavior and thoughts. We will emphasize personal strengths and learn ways to communicate with your children, friends, romantic partner, and/or family.
If you are a parent struggling with dysregulation of your child, a teen who is dealing with hard feelings, or an adult who is having trouble navigating life/relationships right now, I can help. Research shows that the best indicator of success in therapy is a strong connection with a counselor. If you are ready to start connecting and changing, reach out!

Personal Interests
As for me personally, I love to travel, cook, and spend time outdoors. My favorite way to cook things is over a campfire and my favorite way to pass time is talking to friends and my mom. I am an avid hiker as well as a fierce board game player and puzzle completer. I have been playing Dungeons and Dragons for several years as both a player and a Dungeon Master. On any given evening, if I am not playing with friends, one could find me on the couch, under a blanket, watching low budget movies with my partner and our dog.
