Who We Are

Our Treatment Focus

Our Treatment Focus

Our Treatment Focus

I offer a supportive, collaborative space where you can explore what’s going on beneath the surface and begin to reconnect with yourself. My approach is trauma-informed, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs and goals. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply looking for greater clarity, therapy can help you make sense of your experiences and move toward meaningful change.

Our Patient Promise

Our Treatment Focus

Our Treatment Focus

Starting therapy is a courageous step—and one that deserves to be met with care, respect, and understanding. 


This is a space where you can be real, rest from the pressure of the outside world, and do the work of becoming more connected to yourself. I’m honored to be part of that journey.

Our Therapy

Depression & Anxiety

Depression, fear, and anxiety are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience at some point in our lives. Through counseling and treatment, we are able to help you recover motivation, perspective, and joy that you once had in your life. 

 

Addiction

If you’re struggling with addiction, you’re not alone—and you’re not beyond help. In therapy, we’ll explore not just the symptoms, but the underlying experiences and patterns that fuel the cycle. Together, we’ll work toward healing with compassion, not shame.

Trauma & PTSD

Many individuals can experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger post traumatic events. We can help you overcome these symptoms and guide you through the process of grief and healing. 

 

EAP

Life doesn’t stop when you go to work—and sometimes, personal challenges can affect your well-being both on and off the job. If your employer offers EAP benefits, you may be eligible for short-term, confidential counseling at no cost to you.

As a provider for various EAP programs, I offer support for a range of concerns, including:

  • Stress and burnout
  • Work-related conflict
  • Anxiety or depression
  • Grief and loss
  • Relationship issues
  • Substance use
  • Life transitions

EAP sessions are confidential and not shared with your employer. If you’re unsure whether you’re covered, I can help guide you through the process 

GRIEF

Grief comes in many forms—not just after the death of a loved one, but through any meaningful loss. The end of a relationship, a major life transition, the loss of a job, or even a shift in identity can bring grief. There’s no “right” way to grieve, and no timeline that everyone should follow.


In therapy, we’ll create space to honor your loss, explore your emotions, and find ways to carry your grief with compassion. My goal isn’t to help you “move on,” but to help you move through—at your own pace, in your own way.
