How I can help.

The reasons people seek therapy are often complex and deeply personal, touching multiple parts of their lives at once. Whether you're struggling yourself, concerned about your child, facing challenges in a relationship, or trying to make sense of a difficult experience, therapy can provide a space for greater understanding, support, and change.

How I can help

Trauma & Complex Trauma

+
Trauma can affect far more than memories. It can influence how we relate to ourselves, our emotions, our relationships, and our sense of safety in the world. Therapy offers a space to better understand those experiences, process their impact, and develop a relationship with your past that no longer feels like it is controlling your present.

Sexual Abuse & Assault Recovery

+
Sexual trauma can affect the way we understand ourselves, our relationships, our bodies, and our sense of trust in the world. Therapy provides a place to explore those experiences without judgment, understand their lasting impact, and begin reclaiming the parts of yourself that trauma may have obscured.

Religious Trauma

+
The effects of religious trauma often extend far beyond faith itself. Experiences within religious institutions, high-control groups, cults, or extremist environments can influence identity, self-worth, relationships, sexuality, and the way we understand ourselves and the world. Therapy provides an opportunity to examine those experiences, process their impact, and create space for greater freedom, clarity, and self-trust.

Women's Mental Health

+
The demands placed on women are often complex and sometimes contradictory. Whether you're navigating relationships, motherhood, career changes, anxiety, burnout, self-worth, or a significant life transition, therapy offers a space to better understand yourself, reconnect with what matters most, and move forward with greater clarity and intention.

Pregnancy & Postpartum Mental Health

+
Few experiences change us as deeply as becoming a parent. Pregnancy and the postpartum period can bring joy, uncertainty, anxiety, loss, and unexpected challenges—sometimes all at once. Therapy offers a space to make sense of those experiences, care for your own well-being, and navigate this transition with greater support and self-compassion.

Children, Adolescents & Families

+
When a child or teen is struggling, the impact is often felt throughout the entire family. I work with children, adolescents, parents, couples, and families navigating emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges, with the goal of increasing understanding, strengthening connection, and creating lasting change. Therapy may involve individual work with children or teens, parent consultation, family therapy, and creative interventions when experiences are difficult to express through words alone.

Clinical Supervision

+
Providing effective therapy requires more than knowledge alone - it requires ongoing reflection, support, and professional growth. I offer clinical supervision and consultation for pre-licensed and licensed clinicians, with specialized experience in trauma, abuse, attachment-related concerns, and couples and family therapy. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and designed to help clinicians deepen their confidence, strengthen their clinical judgment, and navigate complex cases with greater clarity. Whether you are building foundational skills, pursuing licensure, or seeking consultation on challenging cases, supervision provides a space for learning, growth, and professional development. A limited number of sliding-scale supervision spots are available for pre-licensed clinicians and those experiencing financial hardship.
