Feeling stuck? lost? Frustrated? Find help
WELCOME
Life changes us—sometimes slowly, sometimes all at once. My work is shaped by a deep respect for both psychological processes and lived experiences. Over the years, I have learned that meaningful change rarely comes from quick fixes or simple solutions. It comes from—learning how to stay present with what is real, processing what has happened, and adapting—without losing one’s sense of self. I integrate EMDR, mindfulness-based approaches, existential therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). This allows us to work on multiple levels: Processing past experiences that still affect the present - increasing awareness of thoughts, emotions, and bodily responses - examining meaning, identity, and values during times of change - developing practical skills to respond differently—right now. Through psychotherapy we can navigate these changes together and therapy becomes a lifetime commitment of immersion and change.
About All In Therapy
Mission
My mission is to provide Trauma Informed care through compassionate, evidence-based treatments. My therapeutic style is steady, collaborative, and grounded. I am comfortable working with intensity, uncertainty, and long arcs of change in the context of general counseling and therapy. I do not believe people need to be 'fixed.' Instead, I believe they need support in understanding their experience, reclaiming agency, and finding ways to live fully within the reality they are facing.

Lived Experience
In 2015, I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. Like many of the individuals I work with in therapy, my life changed in ways I did not choose. This experience deepened my understanding of adaptation, grief, resilience, and identity. It reinforced my belief that counseling, including techniques like CBT, is not about returning to who you were—but about learning how to move forward with honesty, self-compassion, and discipline to know who you are now.
I work well with individuals who are...
Navigating major life transitions or losses can be challenging, especially when you feel stuck between who you were and who you are becoming. In my therapy sessions, I help you find depth, clarity, and sustainable change instead of quick answers. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, pay attention, and engage in real work at a pace that your nervous system can tolerate, while training your nervous system.
heal and Transform suffering
Anxiety and Depression Treatment
Mood disorders are common and can be quite painful. Through counseling and personalized psychotherapy, including CBT techniques, you can learn practical strategies to manage anxiety, reduce symptoms, and improve your quality of life. You can overcome depression, enhance your mood and energy levels, and benefit from therapy tailored to your needs.
Trauma Therapy
Trauma can be experienced on various levels, ranging from destabilizing, life-changing events to smaller, challenging experiences that may fade from our memory. Effective treatment methods, such as CBT for trauma and EMDR Level I and II, demonstrate that we have the capacity to learn to live with trauma, allowing us to respond differently than our initial bodily and emotional reactions tell us. By adopting a trauma-informed approach to counseling and psychotherapy, individuals can work through the effects of trauma and toward healing and personal growth.
Stress
Emotional regulation, attention to this moment, and presence are essential skills to develop in our relationships with ourselves, our partners, potential partners, and family. Engaging in self-regulation can strengthen family bonds, improve communication, and resolve conflicts through a compassionate, family-focused approach to counseling. We should know and understand our communication patterns and plateaus. Understanding triggers offers us awareness and opportunity to create the fulfilling relationships we want... we can be grounded in our stress by growth instead of feeling flooded.
Chronic Pain and Illness Treatment
Understand and learn to live with pain and chronic health issues in a new way. Sometimes, we can feel beholden and stuck to our medical care and illness. However, it doesn't have to stay this way. The best outcomes for managing chronic pain and illness often emerge through a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), emotional support, and complementary therapies. Engaging in therapy can provide valuable insight into managing your condition and relating with it better.
