On the outside people see you as "put together" because you're gritty and tough even when you don't feel it. Yet inside its impossible to narrow down your symptoms to one category because you feel ALL of the things, maybe even all at the same time. Confusion, stress, pain, heartbreak, fear, loneliness, sadness and anger are your normal. Because when you've experienced hard, difficult things in your life, those feelings ARE normal. You're tired of "faking" being ok as life has become overwhelming. When was the last time you felt confident and present, able to be ENOUGH for yourself and others? Maybe its time to feel that again.

Everyone of us has a story that is filled with beauty and hurt. How do we hold the hope and pain of our own lives? How do we navigate the distress, desire, ambivalence that lives in us and in our relationships? How can we lead our anxiety rather than it leading us? How can we engage emotions in ways that bring healing and foster connection with self and others? It's my desire to join clients in understanding their own story - past, present, and future - to identify the places in which hope has been shattered, how it has been sought, and consider the way of restoration.

Would you rather go the gyno than see a therapist? If you're the kind of person who cringes at the thought of therapy, I get it; therapy shouldn't feel like a lecture or a bad Tinder date. My approach is refreshingly different - it's all about candid conversations, practical strategies, and a good dose of humor. Laid back, coffee date with friends is the vibe during sessions. Maybe you are feeling burned out, anxious, or are losing your shit every day. I love working with women who need an outlet to navigate life’s BS. Working together, we will find way to reduce your stress and improve your quality of life.
