Life has a way of throwing us curveballs we never asked for. From injuries, to dips in performance, a sense of identity loss after retirement or traumatic events that should have never happened but somehow did. For athletes, former athletes, and high performers, holding yourself to relentless standards on top of life's challenges can leave you feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, and constantly fighting your own mind just to stay at the top of your game. It’s challenging to know what to do next when pushing through isn’t working like it used to. That’s where I come in.

As a licensed therapist, I offer a warm, validating environment to process what feels heavy. I combine this with a direct, active approach to help you achieve true self-improvement and growth. We work as a team to build your treatment plan around your core values and set meaningful goals. Once those targets are reached, we review your progress together and decide whether to celebrate and end therapy or set new goals.

To create lasting change, I equip you with practical DBT and RO-DBT skills to manage distress, increase flexibility of mind, regulate overwhelming emotions, and stay present under pressure. If skill-building alone isn't enough, we integrate EMDR to reprocess trauma at a deeper level so you can feel grounded in your body.

You don't have to keep white-knuckling your way through life. Together, we’ll build a steady foundation so you can feel clear, confident, and genuinely connected.
