Do you ever feel like you're "going through the motions", getting little joy out of life or feeling completely overwhelmed? We all get bogged down with stress, worry and burn out. I strive to support each client through empathy, education and humor. I am passionate about working with clients to help process challenging thoughts, feelings and experiences, to gain skills or provide some extra support during life's transitions. Over the last four years my specialty has been working with children, adolescents and their families. Prior to that I have worked with all ages in both mental health, addiction treatment and community settings.

Do others take so much of you that you’ve run out of pieces of yourself? While you’re taking care of work, family, or school expectations, how would you have time to even notice your own needs? I work with so many women, from college students to busy professional moms, who know this feeling. It seems we’re taught that our self-worth is rooted in other people’s opinions, instead of how we see ourselves. That can leave us dealing with stress, low self-esteem, weight frustrations, and more. In my 25 years of experience, I’ve never met a woman who wasn’t strong, resilient, and much more than how she sees herself.

My number one goal as a therapist is to meet you with full acceptance of your entire lived experience and personhood. I value the time I get to spend with my clients and aim to provide an emotionally safe space for you to explore aspects of yourself you may have hidden or didn't even know existed. Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is my area of speciality that I use not only to help couples strengthen the connective tissue within their relationships, but I also help individuals restore supportive bonds with those they love.

It’s easy to feel stressed and worried when you’re overwhelmed by guilt, unsure of who you are anymore, and you are constantly battling fluctuating emotions. Even though you've tried things like self-help books, TikToks, or talking to friends, it feels like nothing is really helping. Everyday feels overwhelming and at times you just want to escape. It’s important to know that these feelings don’t mean you’ve failed. They’re signals that something deeper needs attention and care.
