It is said that the role of an interpreter is to bridge the communication gap between two or more parties who do not speak the same language.

"I don't know what to feel!" The past few weeks have left us all with an overwhelming sense of uncertainty and confusion.

Many of our clients at Aspire are trying to find their new normal amidst sweeping changes to their daily lives. Finding a space to clear your head, feel heard, and create a plan for sustaining balance is a small, but vital, step for staying strong and resilient.

Suffering comes in many forms. It is personal and intimate and often times overwhelming and sometimes debilitating. But you don’t have to face it alone. Many people have sought my help for feelings of anxiety, stress, overwhelm, and an out of balance work-life; others, for unresolved trauma , PTSD, and other stress-related disorders which keep people trapped in disregulated states of being; still others because they were unhappy with their life and the spark of their passion was dim.

I believe everyone has unique stories that need to be heard. As I listen with curiosity and support, individuals freely explore their stories, become more open to delving into meanings, and further empowered to define their sense of self that needed to be received. In my work with clients, I integrate evidence-based practices such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). As a registered art therapist, I am also aware and appreciative of non-verbal expression and the benefit of using this creative form of expression.

There's no instruction manual for life. Relationship problems, career questions and mental health issues can make us feel confused about our own identity, where we fit in and how to move forward.

My approach is open, casual, and collaborative, and I strive to maintain a space that is judgment-free, and where clients feel fully accepted, truly seen and supported.

You are curious, creative and sensitive. You may be an artist or a writer, or struggling to find balance between your personal needs and those of others depending on you. You may be trying to conquer social anxiety and to figure out who and what you are, what your true path might be. You may be an overachiever or feeling like something is blocking you from reaching your potential. Perhaps you are drowning in your emotions sometimes and do not know what to do, or struggling with your relationships. You would love to get clarity and to have a fulfilling, productive and authentic life, surrounded by meaningful human connections.

We are all a work-in-progress, capable of change at any age. I work with individuals who are: curious about making a life or career transition; needing support with parenting and family life; grappling with grief; craving accountability with goals; wanting tools for anxiety and depression; spiritual seekers; or individuals simply needing to untangle complicated feelings and talk it out. Each new day offers another opportunity to become who we want to be. You don't have to do it alone. Therapy can help with this process.

The human spirit has an amazing capacity for resilience, but sometimes it's too hard to access it on your own. When we encounter challenges and problems in relationships, in our workplaces, in our families, we can feel overwhelmed, hopeless, & stuck. It's not uncommon to feel depressed or anxious, or seek out unhealthy ways to function that mask the hurt. It's in situations like these that it takes great strength to reach out and ask for help--to seek someone to come alongside and enter into your experience; help shoulder the burden, and rediscover and connect with that resiliency.

I believe therapy to be a safe place where someone who is in need of help can be heard free of judgment. One of the main keys of therapy is working together on eliminating behaviors and belief patterns that do not help you grow as a person. By using various approaches that are tailored to your needs, therapy will assist in the development of tools and skills, which will help support personal growth.

ADULTS My approach is integrative - I incorporate multiple therapeutic frameworks to understand and to support my clients. I use client-centered, cognitive-behavioral, and mindfulness interventions while holding in mind the "systems" that you are a part of (your environment, relationships). I’m interested in how the past has shaped who you are. I want to help you use insight from your life experiences to guide you forward. I believe every person is the expert on their own experience and capable of tremendous healing and growth. I would love to talk to you about the possibility of working together to see if I would be a good fit.

I believe that seeking professional help is a strength and not a weakness. I value individuals for who they are, and I appreciate their pain and struggle. I make every effort to understand my client's needs, and I make it a priority to meet with my clients at their starting point. Along the way, I do my best to provide my clients with safe and healthy environment.

I provide individual adult therapy and work with high functioning adults from all walks of life, who have come to realize they want to make positive change in their lives. I believe the core of the work is in developing a real relationship that is built on trust, as well as genuine and authentic moments of understanding that can help push people towards the change they are looking for.
