My clients are sophisticated, insightful, and curious about themselves and others. Yet they may have found themselves feeling chronically depressed, anxious, or lost in life, and they might struggle with long-term patterns in their lives and relationships that they just can’t seem to change. Perhaps they have struggled with trauma or other experiences, thoughts, and feelings they fear nobody would understand. I enjoy working with people who desire not just new insights into their mind, but also a new way of experiencing themselves and others.

I work with people experiencing many challenges including: generalized anxiety, health/illness anxiety, panic attacks, intrusive thoughts, grief, disenfranchised grief, difficult childhoods, relational trauma, ADHD. I can help you understand and modify what symptoms you're experiencing. Also, I can help you better understand why you behave they way you do in relationships, and help you adjust your patterns (e.g. codependence/people pleasing, being distant or hyper-independent, or, being overly controlling) that aren't serving you anymore. I work best with people who are interested in deep self exploration.

To follow my first mind is a Southern expression to explain the power and importance of listening and trusting one's intuition and gut instinct to care for and support oneself. Your first mind is knowing without conscious knowing, a higher power, the universe, you. It reminds you of your worthiness, your strength, and your connectedness. If you desire to experience life more authentically, to fortify your intuition, and to hear your first mind either for the first time or with more clarity. In that case, I welcome the opportunity to work with you.

There's a well known proverb that says "Love your neighbors as you love yourself," but to do that you must first accept and love yourself, and then your light will radiate onto others. Are you in a place where you can love others? Or do you find yourself pouring more and more from an empty cup? Or could it be that you're just stuck, paralyzed by your fears and the unknown, and just don't know how and when to take that next step? Likewise, have you completed a round of therapy, and just need the support, encouragement, or just a "Refresher" to maintain the gains you've made in therapy?

Are you tired of being unable to do the things you want to do, but repeatedly do the things you do not want to do? Are your best intentions producing the kind of relational fruit you desire in your relationships? The invisible pain from the emotional, relational, and spiritual realm activates the same region of your brain that is under physical pain. The need for proper attention and treatment for this invisible pain is as urgent and necessary as physical pain. Your pain will be properly metabolized through validation and comfort and ready to be resurrected as wisdom, strength, and compassion

We all get stuck sometimes. When you feel helpless, lost, overwhelmed, or alone, a judgment-free space to express yourself genuinely, with a witness, can be a soulful haven. Many people I see are seeking relief, growth, connection, and betterment in their lives. They are interested in tending to what holds them back and gaining the resources needed to heal wounded parts. Finding a trusted ally is an important step in receiving the help that you need to live fully, as you truly are. I believe in the medicinal properties of the therapeutic relationship and it is my honor to be a supportive companion along my clients’ journeys.
