All your energy goes into your work and your family. You do your best, but showing up for everyone else while hiding your own heavy heart and constantly delaying your own unmet needs has left you feeling trapped and isolated. You've become so skilled at neglecting yourself and masking your own pain that you're not sure what is real and what is performance anymore. Your battle is internal and unseen. Daily, you're fighting to find light while living in what feels like a constant shadow, covering your joy and suffocating your sense of peace. How did this happen? You had goals. Dreams. Ambition. Where did they go?

Love. Joy. Ecstasy. Awe. In my 18 years of clinical experience, I’ve discovered that we each have far more capacity for these expansive feelings than we often realize. Whether you are contending with many challenges, or feel ready to fly through the stars, I can work with you collaboratively to shape a life that fulfills your highest dreams, and maybe even soars beyond them. I’m eager to share what I’ve learned about our abilities to break out of old patterns of pain, fear, and shame into fruitful creativity and communion with the most inspiring aspects of being alive.

For clients who need assistance working through current circumstances or emotional struggles, I provide space within the professional treatment relationship to facilitate the development of inner stability which helps clients effectively recover from difficult emotional material. Loss, grief and bereavement, recent or remote trauma, adjustment challenges, relationship struggles, and so much more may bring clients to my office, where they will find a safe place to unearth, process and ultimately resolve feelings, as well as increasing their level of social, emotional, occupational, academic, and day to day functioning.

Waitlist for new clients
You don't really like to talk about your childhood or maybe you don't even remember a lot of it. You know parts were bad, the fights, addictions, mental illness, sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, maybe even the death of a loved one. You try to put it behind you but you struggle in your marriage and yell at the kids. Holidays are hard, and sometimes you wonder if it's even worth living. You overcompensate or try to be invisible, because that's how you learned to survive. You suffer from a sense of not being worthy or enough, but it doesn't have to be like that. Life can be good. You ARE worthy and you ARE enough.

The individuals who work with me in therapy are often in a state of transition. And—as humans—change, transition, and moving from one circumstance to the next can feel overwhelming and uncomfortable. Whether your discomfort is from a big life change such as a divorce or move, you’re dealing with grief and loss, or you just have a hunch that your current season of life could feel, well, better—we can work together to find a more peaceful way forward. The ultimate goal of therapy is to help you feel and act as your own internal mentor, a compassionate guide that encourages self-love and self-awareness.

I have extensive experience in working with people who have lived through less than ideal circumstances. Many of my clients have learned to overcome sexual abuse, have been able to move past the pains brought on by physical violence, many have worked through horrific memories of active duty, and others have learned to enjoy life even after making some poor decisions that will impact them forever.
