I enjoy empowering people of all ages to create a unique path that will accentuate their strengths while also providing support and space to address any obstacles that may block their progress. Finding one’s voice and having the confidence and knowledge to guide you in becoming an authentic individual is both a challenging and enriching process that I would feel honored to participate in with you. Whether you have a young child just starting this journey or have many different life experiences, I believe that investing in yourself through therapy, self-care, and introspection will lead to a much happier and authentic life.

Therapy can be a great place to begin the courageous journey of rediscovering who you are and equipping yourself with the tools needed to make your life more enriched and fulfilling. I work with couples, families, and individuals of all ages. I have undergone training in EFT (Emotion Focused Therapy), and use ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention) for treating OCD and anxiety related disorders.

Your inner critic says things like "Why can't you just stop doing this to yourself? You know this is all your fault." It also slides in with comments like "Why even bother....you're never going to be good enough anyway." and "Look at yourself. Why would anyone want to be with someone like you?" Sometimes you want to scream, and other times you just want to cry. Often, you find yourself missing out on friendships and social events because they don't fit in with your latest eating plan, or you're too down on yourself to be around anyone else. You find yourself feeling angry, lonely, and, sometimes, scared. It's not who you want to be.

I have many years of experience working with youth and families through the education system as well as the church platform. I am extremely passionate about mental health and I believe in building empathic relationships. I do this by actively working with clients to achieve desired results of whole health goals through approaches such as but not limited to Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. I believe it is important to use a client-centered focus to truly engage individuals in effective, positive, and responsive therapy to improve interpersonal relationships.

I often work with people who are facing a major life transition and/or who are feeling "stuck." Whether that is a career change, divorce, having a child, or a major illness (just to name a few), therapy can be incredibly helpful in finding the ground beneath your feet by figuring out what your goals are and how to get there. I also work with a lot of individuals who have survived some type of trauma, including major medical illness. I find that the big "why are we here?" questions can often be important to address after traumatic experiences.

Smart, driven teen girls and women are often praised for keeping it all together - even if it means secretly falling apart behind the scenes. There's a lot of pressure to be the best at everything you do, which means there is no room for mistakes, and definitely no room for self-care. You wind up feeling panicked, overwhelmed, frustrated, or depressed. You often worry about what others think of you, and wish you could turn off that little voice that is always telling you what a failure you are. You wonder if anyone else ever feels like this. You know this isn't exactly normal...but you're not sure what to do about it.

Hi there! I am really glad you are here. Finding a therapist can be surprisingly hard (I mean, how do you choose, right?!), but it is the first step towards healing and reclaiming your life. I would be honored to help you in this process. It is my goal to create a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients to share their experiences. Life is hard, emotions are messy, sometimes what we feel might not make sense to us!

In the last few years, we have seen an increase in individuals experiencing stress, sadness, and frustration that can be impacting their careers, relationships, health, finances, and life satisfaction. Whether it is feeling the need to be perfect, procrastinating tasks, disconnection within your marriage, distracted in thought, or feeling unmotivated to get out of bed in the morning, we can work together to identify origins of these issues and then solutions to healing. Reaching out for help can be the most difficult part of the healing journey. You don't have to do it all alone.

Burned out and overwhelmed from taking care of everyone around you? It's a familiar story to many women, particularly if your job already involves keeping everyone else happy and well (here's looking at you, doctors, nurses, teachers, and moms!). You may find yourself feeling depressed, overthinking things, and never quite sure what "self care" means. That makes sense, with so much on your plate! In a perfect world, you'd be able to manage all of The Everything, maintain great relationships, and still find time for yourself. But, things are feeling far from perfect. And that's what brings you here.
