Have you found yourself feeling overwhelmed, spending your days anxious or depressed? Perhaps you've received unhelpful advice, read self-help books, or tried to power through. People are hard-wired for connection, and we heal through relationships. Therapy can be a safe place to develop connection, heal childhood wounds, rewire your nervous system, accept yourself, and experience more joy and confidence. I use what I've learned on my own healing journey, as well as from my professional experience, to help others develop a happier, more meaningful life and better relationships.

Do you wonder if you’re the only one around who experiences the world with the intensity you do? Depending on how stressed you are, it may feel like you’re on alert or like you’re living in a soundproof glass box, cut off from others. You may have a hard time focusing on conversations with co-workers and family. You might have been told you’re "oversensitive" or have "no filter.". You may be feeling frustrated with yourself for not being able to get things together and just move forward, but the pandemic has made everything harder, and it feels like there are always too many moving parts. You want for a space to talk this through.

My work is deeply rooted in the core of who I am.  When you show up in my office you won't find a freudian style couch to lie on, a note pad in my hand, or a wall of credentials (although I certainly have those too!). Instead you'll get my authentic self, the healing relationship that we form, and probably some tea.

You might feel like you’re floating aimlessly in the sea of life with no direction or purpose, or perhaps life has handed you a few too many unexpected and distressing experiences, and you might feel like you’re treading water just to barely stay afloat. Even more, the expectations and standards of society, or the people around you might be making you feel even worse. If you’re feeling any of these ways, please know that you aren’t alone, and despite what society might tell you: nothing is fundamentally wrong with you.

Each one of us is connected to others through relationships - the vitality of these bonds is crucial for our well being. Yet, relating to others may at times seem like trying to crack a secret code. Do you struggle to have your needs met? Your voice heard? Or maybe you just want to be better understood by others? I believe learning to get what you need from others and from life is a process that starts with ourselves. I will be with you as we challenge the obstacles and bring decisions into line with your values.
