Areas of Specialty

​

Trauma & PTSD

Trauma can shape the way you see yourself, others, and the world around you. Whether you've experienced a single traumatic event or the lasting effects of childhood experiences, healing is possible. Using evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), I help clients process painful experiences, reduce trauma symptoms, and rediscover a sense of safety, confidence, and hope.

​

Perinatal & Postpartum Mental Health

Pregnancy and parenthood can bring incredible joy while also feeling overwhelming, isolating, and emotionally exhausting. If you're experiencing postpartum depression, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, birth trauma, pregnancy-related stress, or simply don't feel like yourself, you are not alone. Together, we'll create a supportive space to help you navigate this season with compassion and confidence.

​

Substance Use & Recovery

Recovery isn't about perfection—it's about progress. Whether you're questioning your relationship with substances, beginning recovery, maintaining sobriety, or supporting your overall wellness, therapy can provide a judgment-free space to explore the challenges and celebrate the victories. My goal is to help you build a meaningful life that supports long-term recovery and personal growth.

​

Anxiety, Depression & ADHD

When anxiety, depression, or ADHD begin to impact your daily life, even simple tasks can feel overwhelming. You may find yourself constantly overthinking, feeling emotionally drained, struggling to stay organized, procrastinating despite your best intentions, or wondering why everything seems to require so much effort.

Therapy provides a supportive space to better understand how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact. Together, we'll identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, develop practical coping strategies, and build skills that fit your unique strengths and challenges. Whether you're navigating racing thoughts, low motivation, difficulty focusing, emotional overwhelm, or the constant pressure of trying to "keep it all together," you don't have to face it alone.

​

My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and empowered so you can manage life's demands with greater clarity, self-compassion, and resilience

​

Women's Mental Health

Women often find themselves balancing careers, relationships, family responsibilities, and personal expectations while putting their own needs last. Whether you're navigating burnout, boundaries, identity changes, self-esteem, or major life transitions, therapy offers a place to reconnect with yourself and prioritize your emotional well-being.
 

Life Transitions

Life doesn't always unfold the way we expect. Whether you're becoming a parent, changing careers, experiencing relationship changes, grieving a loss, or entering a new chapter, transitions can bring uncertainty and stress. Therapy can help you process change, build resilience, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
