Now accepting new clients! Sometimes we get stuck in cycles that are confusing and painful and keep us from living a joyful and fulfilling life. Wherever you're at in your journey, I want to meet you there. I work with adults who are looking for help with trauma recovery, anxiety & depression, relationship struggles, grief & loss, and life & role transitions. If your goal is to not only make sense of your story but also to take meaningful steps toward a life of fulfillment, I may be a great fit for you. You don't have to do this alone!

I am trained in Emotionally-Focused Couples and Family Therapy (EFT) and do individual therapy for teens (12+) and adults. In addition to my professional training, my therapy is informed by my previous work as a classroom teacher, school leader, and wilderness therapy guide. I strive to create a warm environment where clients feel safe to bring all parts of themselves. I see my clients as collaborators, and if you choose to work with me, we will work together to set goals, to evaluate our progress and to respond to your needs as they evolve.

Change can be hard and scary. But maybe there’s a part of you that's ready for something different. Maybe it’s working through traumatic events, managing negative or uncomfortable feelings or coping with addiction; it would be my honor to provide a safe place where you will be heard, feel a sense of compassion and have someone to walk the path of change with you. I have a passion for helping people break free from the bonds of fear, depression, shame, guilt, unworthiness and anxiety. Often, this requires vulnerability and courage; but together, you will be able to obtain the changes you want and build hope, balance, and freedom.

Are you struggling to find balance in life? Do you feel overwhelmed even by minor everyday problems in your life? Do you desire a change but unsure how to get there? Are you needing a relief from emotional distress whether due to your own struggles or someone in your family? If you are ready to make the first step toward finding solutions to your struggles, I can be there to help you through this process. I believe that each individual is an expert in their own self. By creating a safe and nonjudgmental environment and guiding you through the process of resolving challenging thoughts and emotions, you can reach your own potential.

I use the Family Systems theory approach while identifying family of origin roles and patterns. Using a cognitive behavioral approach in helping clients identify thinking patterns that impact self-esteem and the choices one makes, I can guide you to new thought patterns that will raise the quality level of your life in many ways. Mood disorder therapy, including Bipolar Disorder and Major Depression, is a vital instrument for those affected. Medication assessment and management referral resources are available to compliment psychotherapy. Think in new ways, feel new emotions, live with a new view of you and your world.

Are you looking for a therapist who will work with your unique, gifted, often quirky, needs and nurture you through your strengths? Are you or a child in your life struggling to cope with big feelings and changes? Have you or your child been diagnosed with, or show signs of, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Social Anxiety, feeling "different", or problems with self-confidence? Are you frustrated by how difficult it is to communicate your thoughts and feelings effectively with others? Or do you avoid your feelings for fear of being overwhelmed by them?

Are you are struggling with painful issues in life? Do you want to experience a more meaningful way of living? Our experiences take us through many life changing events and challenges and sometimes in our life journey we may become stuck in our growth.

You wake up each day and it hits you again. You’ve entered a new reality: one you would do anything to escape. You've lost something or someone that made life make sense. Maybe you've experienced a difficult break-up. Lost a dream job. Maybe you're struggling with your health. Or maybe someone you love has died. Either way, you don't know where to go from here. It doesn't feel like the people in your life to whom you turn for support understand what you're going through. You might worry they have too much going on in their own lives.

Our stories do not define us, but they are a part of us. I believe your story, feelings, and experiences are worthy of being seen, heard, and valued. It is when people feel seen and accepted by others that they are able to fully embrace themselves and show up authentically in all aspects of their lives. My therapeutic philosophy is rooted in understanding how your intersecting identities impact your way of thinking, and shape how you navigate through life and its challenges.
