There it is...the all too familiar thought…emotion…or behavior. It continues to search for a solution for what life has brought me. Therapy is a place to gain understanding and insight about making personal change, maybe learn some new ways to manage my emotions or relationships, find purpose in doing the things you do…or want to do.

I believe strongly in patient-centered treatment. It is important for clients to take control of their goals and lives when in therapy. Nothing is more empowering than having your voice heard. I take a strengths-based approach to treatment to help the client realize their potential to be the change what they want to see in their life.

Sometimes life doesn’t seem to make any sense. The things we thought defined us don’t quite fit the same way they used to. The goals, dreams, and aspirations that used to motivate us just aren’t moving us like before. Even though on the surface things may seem “fine” to most other people, we know that in reality, we’re struggling to get by and long to feel truly connected to the lives we have. We get tired of feeling empty, we get tired of feeling overwhelmed, and sometimes we get tired of feeling altogether.

Do you experience anxiety, depression, anger, PTSD, parenting struggles, relational dynamic issues or changes, or personal identity concerns? I am here to support you finding your voice within yourself and in close relationships. I believe that our past informs our present, in how we see, feel, hear, connect, and experience our lives. I find behavior to be an important opening to explore the underlying feelings an individual is experiencing in response to others. I view therapy as a collaborative process in which you are the expert of your own life and I am an empathetic and supportive guide helping create a brave, accepting space.

I believe that the practice of being human is an incredibly complex, difficult, amazingly messy and yet wonderfully beautiful process. While life can be complicated and painful, it can also be rewarding and full of joy. However, when we are in one state it is often hard to even imagine the other. Therapy can be a safe and supportive place in which to reconcile the difference and to learn the relationship between the two. We can often muddle through the difficulties on our own but sometimes it helps to have someone objective, compassionate and skilled to help us through.

I believe relationships shape our lives and our stories. They can be our greatest struggles, but also our greatest sources of meaning and joy. I work with children, couples and families, to manage challenges, process trauma, develop coping skills, and, so importantly, find connection points.

Laughter & Genuine. Two words that describe me… As I say “I am who I am” or others might say “down to earth.” Whether you're navigating relationship issues, anxiety, depression, facing career crossroads, or seeking to improve your mental well-being, my goal is to create an easy and genuine space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. Similar to a psychologist, a mental health counselor is trained in theory and practice of mental health disorders, treatments and interventions.

Excited. Persistent. Results oriented and good sense of humor. That's me! You’re not alone when you say, “I really don’t want to get out of bed today, just a little while longer,” as you pull the covers over your head. Today feels gray, you feel overwhelmed, even numb and the nagging “duties” of the day pull at your attention, one after another. You want to scream and hide under a rock to make it all go away for a minute, but you open your eyes to see the list of “should’s” just get longer. And worse yet, you feel alone in all of it.

Studies show women attend counseling nearly 2-1 vs men. That said men, understandably, have cultivated a natural and valid discomfort for talking out issues, with the legitimate fear of being harshly judged or truly not heard. Well, I’d like to help men who find counseling uncomfortable. Suicide is the 11th overall cause of death in America. MIDDLE-AGE men have the HIGHEST rate of suicide making up nearly 70% of those total numbers. I’m here to help those men that want to find help, and need to truly be heard. As far as my approach, I’m a combination of holistic and realistic. Women are welcome as well, Im equal opportunity!

As we understand our emotions, then we can change our behaviors. Whether you're facing conflicts in your marriage, coping with the loss of a loved one, navigating the joys and challenges of parenthood, or wrestling with overwhelming worries, I'm here to help you through it all.
