Individual psychotherapy, often called individual therapy or counselling, is a collaborative process in which you meet one-to-one with a trained therapist in a private, supportive setting. Together, you explore concerns such as stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, grief, trauma, or life transitions. Therapy can help you better understand your thoughts, feelings, and patterns, build practical coping skills, and make changes that support your wellbeing and goals. The pace, focus, and length of therapy are tailored collaboratively to your needs and preferences.

Trauma has a way of staying with us long after the event is over — in our bodies, our relationships, and the way we see ourselves. Whether you experienced a single overwhelming event or years of difficult experiences, therapy can help you make sense of what happened, reduce the hold it has on your daily life, and rebuild a sense of safety and self-worth. I work with a range of trauma experiences including sexual trauma, relational trauma, and childhood trauma.

Some mental health challenges are not a phase to get through — they are a long-term part of life that require ongoing support, adjustment, and care. Whether you are living with depression, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, OCD, or another condition that has shaped your experience for years, therapy offers a consistent, steady space to help you manage the hard seasons, build on the good ones, and keep growing.

This is not about fixing you. It is about supporting you through setbacks, the breakthroughs, and everything in between.

I offer ADHD evaluations for adults that go beyond a checklist. We look at the full picture of how your brain works and how symptoms show up across your life. If an ADHD diagnosis fits, you'll leave with a clear understanding of what's going on and documentation that can support treatment, accommodations, or medication management with your prescriber.

From there, coaching helps you actually work with your brain — not against it. We focus on building systems that fit how you think, breaking through the blocks that get in your way, and developing strategies you'll use in real life. This isn't about trying harder. It's about trying differently.

Our closest relationships can be our greatest source of support — and our greatest source of pain. I work with individuals navigating marital stress, separation and divorce, difficult family dynamics, co-parenting challenges, blended family stress, estrangement, and the complicated feelings that come with being a caregiver. You don't have to be in couples therapy to work on your relationships; individual therapy can bring real clarity and change to how you show up with the people who matter most.

Sometimes life asks us to become someone we haven't figured out yet. Whether you're navigating a career change, a move, a shift in your values or faith, questions about your gender or sexuality, or simply a growing sense that the life you're living no longer fits; therapy is a space to explore who you are and who you want to be, without judgment.

The adoptive experience can shape the way you see yourself, understand your story, and move through the world in ways that are not always easy to put into words. Whether you were adopted as an infant or an older child, are navigating questions about your birth family, or are working through feelings of grief, belonging, or identity that have surfaced at any point in life, therapy offers a space to explore it all without judgment.

You deserve support that recognizes how complex and deeply personal the adoption experience can be.

Considering gender-affirming surgery can involve practical, emotional, and personal decisions. I offer respectful, collaborative mental health assessments for adults seeking documentation for gender-affirming surgical care.

This is not a test of your gender identity, and therapy is not required simply because you are pursuing gender-affirming care. The purpose is to help ensure that you have the information, support, and preparation needed to make an informed decision and navigate the surgical process. We aim to be a support in your corner and an advocate for your efforts toward authentic embodiment.

Receiving a diagnosis of non-epileptic psychogenic events can be confusing, isolating, and even frustrating — especially if you've spent time searching for answers or feel like your symptoms haven't been taken seriously. NPES are real, they are not "all in your head," and they deserve real care.

Therapy can be an important part of treatment. Together, we explore the emotional, psychological, and physiological factors that may be contributing to your episodes, work through any underlying stress or trauma, and build tools to help you feel more in control of your body and your life.

I understand the unique challenges that come with navigating a condition that lives at the intersection of neurology and mental health.

Living with a chronic illness or persistent pain affects far more than your body. It can reshape your identity, strain your relationships, and bring a kind of grief that people around you may not fully understand.

Therapy offers a space where all of that is welcome. We work together to help you find steadiness, process the losses that come with illness, and build a life that feels meaningful even when your health is unpredictable.

I offer mental health evaluations for individuals preparing for significant medical decisions, including organ transplant candidacy assessments. These evaluations are thorough, collaborative, and completed in a way that respects your dignity and the weight of the decisions you're facing.
