Therapy that empowers you to nurture your authentic self and navigate life's challenges with resilience and purpose.
I am currently accepting new clients both in person and virtually.
You deserve a life that you are excited to be living.
You’re not broken—maybe just stuck. Let’s work together to shift that.
Life can get overwhelming, especially when you feel like you’ve lost touch with yourself. Maybe you know something needs to change but you’re not sure what—or where to even begin. If you’re feeling stuck, confused, or weighed down by patterns you can’t quite name, you don’t have to figure it all out alone. I’m here to help.
I take a collaborative, down-to-earth, and holistic approach to therapy. That means we’ll look at your whole self—mind, body, nervous system, and story. I use tools like EMDR (a powerful method that goes deeper than traditional talk therapy) to help you move through trauma, release old beliefs, and reconnect with your inner compass. You already carry wisdom and resilience within you; therapy is a space where we can tap back into that together.
I work especially well with people who feel a bit “outside the box”—queer folks, creatives, sensitive souls, those walking nontraditional paths, or in the midst of deep personal shifts. Whether you’re dealing with burnout, perfectionism, identity questions, or just trying to find your purpose in a chaotic world, I’m here to walk beside you.
My work is trauma-informed, anti-racist, and sex/body-positive. I integrate evidence-based approaches like ACT and EMDR with mindfulness, deep conversation, and body-based healing. Together, we’ll challenge unhelpful patterns, build real-life skills, and create space for authenticity and healing—from the bottom up and the top down.
It’s not always easy to reach out—but if you’re ready, I’m here.
My office always is and always will be LGBTQIA+ affirming, sex-positive, body-positive, and anti-racist. In our work together, we will always consider the systems in which you exist and how those impact your experiences.
Specialties
My approach is holistic, meaning that in our collaborative work we will consider your mind, body, values, communities, past, present, future, and the interrelated systems that impact you. Certain issues I love working with are:
Anxiety and Perfectionism: over-thinking, negative thought cycles, and the belief of being “not good enough”
Self-Connection: confidence, purpose, self-worth, identity, values
Complex Trauma including relationship and attachment trauma
LGBTQIA+ issues and identity exploration
About Me
I understand the feeling of being anxious, stuck, unmotivated, lost, and uncertain about life. I've been on this journey myself and feel honored to meet my clients where they are on their journies. Before becoming a therapist, I worked in several industries, including service, design, wellness, and nonprofit. Although I have called Atlanta home for years, I'm originally from South Florida and have lived in Alaska, Colorado, Europe, and Australia.
Through my own personal struggles with mental health, anxiety, and perfectionism, I discovered the healing power of therapy and holistic approaches. I've also observed and studied how the systems we exist in, such as our communities, social structures, and institutions, impact us and our mental health profoundly. I believe that there is nothing wrong with you and that it’s amazing that you've taken this step towards changing your experience of life.
I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Georgia and have also completed additional training to offer EMDR, which is one of the most effective holistic therapeutic approaches backed by science. Currently, I'm pursuing full clinical licensure while working under supervision. When I'm not with clients, I enjoy yoga, nature, good food, and a binge of my favorite comfort shows with loved ones.
“We need to learn how to practice love such that care – for ourselves and others – is understood as political resistance and cultivating resilience.”
