My greatest desire is that each of my clients learn through the process of therapy how to walk in freedom. Freedom from depression, anxiety and present and past issues. I believe that we are a product of our past but that healing begins when we explore that past and begin to write a new story, a healing narrative. It is my belief that a productive therapeuitc relationship begins by providing a safe place, free of judgement and full of grace for the process and ourselves.

Asking for help is hard and it can be scary. My goal is to create a safe environment and cultivate a relationship based on trust that will allow my clients the freedom to be who they are without fear of judgment or criticism. This is the environment where healing can begin. I view treatment from the perspective of attachment theory. This refers to the quality of the relationships with others in our lives, including our original caregivers. Many issues that people are currently struggling with are rooted in our early relationships. My goal is to treat not only the current symptoms but also the underlying causes.

Your spouse feels more like your roommate. You don't recognize them anymore. Neither of you are the same person you were when you first married. Sitting on the couch together is like snuggling up to a stranger on a plane. Neither of you feels supported, heard, or appreciated. Despite being with each other for years, your communication has worsened. You've both become reactive. You ask yourself, “At what point did we lose touch? Before baby number 2? After the umpteenth job change? When their mom moved in ‘just for a couple of months’ a year ago?” You're craving laughter, love, and connection. You're ready to have your partner back.
