I believe every person has the capacity to heal and to live a connected, vibrant life. When faced with anxiety, depression, and pain, we sometimes cope by developing habits and re-living patterns that hold us back. Whether you are experiencing unfulfilling relationships, grief, panic, or numbness, we can work together to get to know your story and illuminate the path forward.

Psychotherapy is a process of shared exploration of your unique concerns that offers meaningful insight and change. While utilizing nonjudgmental and intentional listening, I provide a space where together we recognize and translate your lived experience into words in order to promote personal reflection and growth. Therapeutic tasks include looking closely at emotional and relational spaces you navigate in daily life, examining how past experiences impact you in the present, and developing new perspectives and ways of being. These efforts can offer you a greater sense of agency and deeper satisfaction with who you are in the world.

There are many reasons people seek therapy. Sometimes there is a sense of sadness that just doesn't go away. Sometimes anxiety is so bad that one is unable to leave one's home. One may be in crisis, finding that coping skills are no longer working. And sometimes the past interferes with the present, causing a lack of self-esteem, sleep disturbance, self-harm, nightmares, flashbacks, loss of time, suicidal thoughts. And sometimes one may feel stuck in an abusive relationship, unable to assert oneself to get one's own needs met.
