I help people free themselves from the wrath of a harsh inner critic, get unstuck from unhealthy situations, and start living instead of just surviving. If you are living with anxiety, depression, unproductive anger, the impact of trauma, or relationship struggles--including parenting neurodiverse or gender-questioning children, I welcome you. I provide a safe, compassionate, emotionally attuned space so you can feel supported as we explore what brings you into therapy. Whatever your struggle, I believe it is possible to navigate pain, gain strength, and experience greater fulfillment through the therapeutic relationship we create.

Occasional anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties are a natural part of life but shouldn't outweigh the joy and satisfaction that life can offer. My task is to hear and understood you well, so that you will come to know yourself better identify the "blind spots" that are keeping you stuck and make the changes you're hoping for hard to achieve.

Whether one seeks relief from anxiety, trauma, relational impasses, or life disillusionment, therapy can help. It is unfortunate that insufficiently engaged approaches to therapy, prohibitive rates, and the unconscionable reluctance of most clinicians to accept insurance fail so many clients, who in good faith seek to discover a healing of heart and mind. As a psychodynamic therapist, I view my role as an empathic change agent employed to help bring about a fuller knowledge of self and a more liberated experience of life and relationship. I also supervise highly promising interns from NWU available for as low as $15-30 per session.

I have the belief that people have the ability within themselves to recognize maladaptive patterns in their lives and with a little help, become able to set attainable goals to change those patterns into something more functional for their lives. I believe that motivation to change is a key component in what makes counseling successful for most people. My goal is to provide a safe, welcoming environment for you to help you meet your goals. My hope is that you will be better able to cope with the underlying issues giving you trouble and to help you learn more about yourself and your behavior.

My goal is to foster a strong therapeutic alliance and facilitate client growth while also assisting in symptom relief. First, I believe in establishing rapport. Then, we can look at readiness and ability to change. I am passionate about supporting children and their families: I have experience working with Latinx families, military families, recent immigrants, and those of culturally diverse backgrounds. My passion for working with families, in particular Latinx families, inspired me to attend a program that offered a concentration in Latino Mental Health.

Congratulations on taking the first step in starting therapy. For over 20 years, I've enjoyed collaborating with adults, teens and their families to resolve conflicts, and foster more meaningful relationships. Anxiety and depression can cloud our ability to see ourselves and others in a positive light. Together we can challenge negative thinking that blocks goal attainment, regulate overwhelming emotions, and calm the body. In a safe environment we can explore new ways of thinking and being. I look forward to joining you on your journey

You're sick of feeling so overwhelmed and unfulfilled. Life is great on paper and by all accounts, you "should" be happy. But it's getting harder to cover up the feeling that your soul is dying. And that inner critic is so loud it's hard to hear much else. Going through the motions, marking things off your to-do list, but you’re not present. Tasks are means to an end: “If I can just get X, I’ll feel better.” But relief never comes. Maybe happiness lies somewhere in the future, but you can't tap into it now. You know you deserve joy and fulfillment. But how can you begin to trust yourself & start thriving, rather than just surviving?

Heart Centered Therapy helps you connect to what is Essential and True within yourself. It supports you in restoring inner balance, aliveness, peace and meaning in your life and in your relationships.
The accumulations of life challenge, stress and trauma create beliefs, emotions and thoughts that become conditioned patterns. that cover up and distract us from our ability to be present. These patterns interfere with our sense of self and relationships. Authentic presence returns as the patterns of stress and trauma are integrated restoring a natural vibrancy and aliveness.

Being my authentic self is important to me and I want you to be yourself with me. We often don’t get the chance to be completely open and honest in our society, so I hope we can create that safe place in our sessions. I believe that you are your own expert, and sometimes even experts need to explore their own ideas to come up with solutions to all sorts of problems or issues. I use aspects of cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and solution-focused therapy depending on my client’s needs. I often incorporate creativity, laughter, and games in session because I am a “big kid” and because it’s fun!

People generally decide to come to therapy when they experience a difference between how their lives are going, and how they would like their lives to be. I welcome the chance to help people make important changes in their lives. While my therapy approach varies from person to person, and is guided by what an individual wants to address, I feel our relationship and mutual trust are essential for effective work in therapy. Depending on someone's concerns, I call upon therapy approaches including mindfulness-based, internal family systems, cognitive-behavioral, hypnosis, EMDR, and Hakomi therapy. I welcome your
inquiry about my practice!

Are you grieving the loss of something or someone you loved? Perhaps it was the traumatic loss of a person close to you or your health due to illness. Maybe you’re grieving the person you once knew who you’ve lost due to substances, dementia, or mental health. Grief is a difficult, exhausting, and often isolating process. You may feel like you don’t even know how to or want to move forward, or you may have thought you did and are only now realizing you could use some support to do that. You’re looking for a safe place to start on or move forward in your grief journey.

I work with individuals and families who are struggling with difficult issues such as depression, divorce, or mental illness. Conflicts, within and between people, lie at the core of emotional distress. Divorce, depression, substance abuse make setting healthy boundaries difficult, and before the individual knows it, he or she is living in a state of compromise. I focus on people who are wanting to get out of a compromised state and build healthy relationships that protect personal space and are conducive to reciprocity.

If you feel like you have tried everything and nothing works, I get you! I strongly believe that we all have an inner wisdom deep within us, but through our life experiences and social influences, most of us lose access to this inner healer. In our work together I will guide and support you as we peel back the layers so that you can reconnect with your deeper sense of self. As you begin to make that connection, shift happens. My intention is for you to feel empowered in your healing journey.
