About

Our connections with ourselves, others, and our communities can bring tremendous joy, meaning, and fulfillment. In contrast, experiences of disconnection and loss can elicit profound anguish. A crucial step toward relief and enduring growth in psychotherapy starts with an affirming connection with your therapist. Beyond the reasons that bring you in, I am committed to listening to your life story and learning about you as a whole, imperfect person who deserves unconditional care and respect. From there, we can identify opportunities to relate to yourself and others in new ways.

I specialize in treating concerns related to trauma, grief, loss, life transitions, and chronic stress. I am particularly experienced working with the military community, early and middle adulthood transitions, healthcare professionals, and individuals whose professions carry an elevated risk of trauma exposure.

Finding a strong fit with a therapist is essential. Let's schedule a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation to discuss what brings you to therapy and how I may help. I welcome your questions and look forward to hearing from you.
