I believe you are the expert of your own life, and my role is to listen deeply and support your growth. My approach is relational and trauma-informed, combining attachment-focused work, tools that support nervous system regulation, and practical coping strategies to help in daily life. I see therapy as a shared space built on trust and authenticity.

My goal is to create a supportive space where you can show up exactly as you are. You’ll learn ways to calm your body, understand your triggers, and navigate stressful moments with more clarity and confidence. As we explore what’s been heavy, I’ll listen for what’s said and unsaid, offering compassion and reflection to help you make sense of your experience.

Clients describe me as warm, grounded, and authentic in the way I show up. I don’t believe therapy requires a blank slate. I show up as a real person (thoughtful, present, and human) because healing happens through genuine connection. I hope our work together feels collaborative and real, a place where you can be yourself and know you’re not alone.

I specialize in working with women navigating the push and pull of doing it all - caring deeply for others while quietly running on empty. Many of my clients are moving through trauma, anxiety/burnout, postpartum or motherhood, or seasons of self-doubt. Together, we work to rebuild trust in themselves and create lives that feel more aligned and fulfilling.

I became a therapist because I’ve always been drawn to the moments when people feel truly seen - when understanding replaces shame and something inside starts to soften. I believe healing happens in safe, authentic connection, and I’m honored to walk alongside people as they rediscover their strength and self-trust.

I created Common Ground Therapy & Wellness for the ones doing their best while quietly running on empty. You don’t have to keep pushing here. This is a steady, human space where you can slow down, feel seen, and rediscover the parts of yourself ready to breathe again.
