Do you struggle with feeling disconnected from yourself and others? Do you often feel exhausted, overwhelmed, frustrated, lost, working hard just to get through the day?

Much of my work involves helping men and women who have found themselves in the grip of depression, anxiety, spiritual turmoil or are experiencing a loss of their sense of self. I'm an advocate for building emotional intelligence and helping others recover from the effects of toxic or emotionally manipulative relationships.

Regardless the issue, I am drawn to understanding what true healing looks like for you. Are you actively healing or is the pain less because your triggers are absent?

Life doesn’t come with a set of instructions. Sometimes we find that what we are doing is no longer working in the way we want it to. We may find ourselves experiencing work problems, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, difficulties reaching goals, issues with parenting, grief, or just feeling like life isn’t what we want it to be. I help clients identify and build on their current strengths, while identifying ways to strengthen and build on areas that may be more challenging. It is my intention to create a safe space for clients to process their experiences, share their challenges, and find the best path forward.

I have 10+ years of therapy experience (including: individual, family/couples, and group therapy) addressing a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges including: past hurts (trauma), substance abuse, depression, anger, anxiety, self destructive behavior, loss of touch with reality, relationship issues, and various types of adjustments to life changes. My ideal client is one who is overcoming adversity.

Have you ever felt like a stranger in your own home or all alone in a room with close family members and friends? It’s normal to feel that way at times, but how you respond is pivotal. It is so easy to lose sight of self care when you are busy caring for others. If you can relate, take proactive measures before those challenges turn into severe medical issues such as major depression, anxiety, anger management issues or grief. Free yourself from psychological bondage.
