Do you find yourself struggling with depression, anxiety, or constantly feeling “stuck”? Are you tired of feeling sad, lonely, and not having people who truly understand your struggles? Did you grow up in a community that stigmatized mental health and discouraged seeking support outside of your home or religion? Are you worried that someone might judge or consider you “weak” if you ask for help? Let me reassure you that there is absolutely nothing wrong with you, and you are not weak. There is no shame in seeking support. There is no shame in wanting a better life for yourself. There is certainly no shame in seeking happiness.

Your everyday choices reflect the meaning you are attempting to bring to your life. Take a moment to let that sink in...........Big or small, these choice were and are driven by conscious and unconscious hopes, desires, needs, dreams, etc. There are times, however, when you experience trauma, severe life stressors, or times of crisis that negatively impact your ability to make healthy choices that may result in loneliness, confusion, fear, anger, and sadness. Over time these choices produce repeated patterns that impact the quality of your lived experiences.

With great courage and a sense of curiosity, you’ve already taken the hardest step towards feeling better—reaching out for help. Maybe you’ve been feeling "stuck" or overwhelmed? Perhaps you and your significant other find it difficult to communicate each other's feelings and needs. Or maybe you're trying to make sense of a life experience and don’t know where to start. I would like to reassure you, you don’t have to endure the pain or confusion alone. We, as humans, have all experienced moment(s) in life where we feel disconnected from our true selves and even our loved ones. Sometimes we just need some support along the way.

Looking for freedom, healing, transformation? As an observer of human behavior and relationship, I see the sticky interconnectedness of self, other, and systems that often imprisons us in behaviors, thoughts, and reactions that can feel unchangeable. I believe people often do the best they can to face the challenges of life, yet in doing so, some of what we discover works at first, fails us long-term. And it’s here that we often feel trapped—between doing what we know to do and knowing what we’re doing is no longer working.

I am absolutely crazy about helping humans access their full potential. I believe it is my dharma – or my sacred calling. I believe that each human being has a divine purpose. I believe that separation from this purpose is the source of much of our suffering. I see my role as a trusted companion on your journey back to this divine purpose - back to your authentic Self. In our work together, I invite you to reclaim sovereignty over your mental health through a process of radical acceptance.

I work with individuals, adolescents, couples and families who desire to live a better life and have connection in their relationships. Did you know that "pain is inevitable, suffering is optional" (. I didn't. Everyone experiences suffering. Learning how NOT to suffer is life changing. We'll explore the beliefs and meanings that were created during your socialization. You'll learn simple tools and gain awareness about how the process of suffering happens for you and how to NOT suffer. It requires willingness, vulnerability and a commitment to not give up. You also have the option to experience EMDR, a powerful modality when stuck.

All humans are wired for connection – we need it on the most basic level from the moment we are born and throughout our lifetime. But humans are the worst! And the best! Humans are complicated. We need each other, we love each other, we hurt each other – we develop ways of reaching out for connection that might not be working anymore. This is where I come in. I work with people who are experiencing distress within themselves and in their relationships. We will identify the unhelpful beliefs and patterns that keep you stuck, and then learning new ways of relating to yourself and others that make you feel…..dare I say it?… happy!

Do you sometimes feel ruled by your past? Like there’s a story you've been telling yourself that doesn’t quite fit anymore, but is tough to deprogram. Perhaps you've begun exploring your own identity/ies in various ways, differentiating from your family’s expectations, and asking yourself the big question “Who am I?” and could really use a guide and witness to help make space for your evolution (renaissance). It is normal to feel stuck and not have a clue about how to move forward. Change in life is really hard, and you do not need to go through it alone.
