Have you ever spent sleepless nights lying in bed wondering… What is wrong with me? Why do I feel this way? Why am I like this? Have you ever tried to talk yourself out of the emotional responses that you have and get so frustrated when they don't subside? Have you ever felt like no matter what you just aren't enough or good enough for anybody…or even yourself? You feel like everything is your fault. You feel abandoned or fear being abandoned. You feel like you're too much for anybody. You feel lost and don't know if you will ever find your purpose or even yourself. You want to break free from this unhealthy cycle of suffering.

In 22 years as a therapist I’ve learned that, while pain is a universal human experience, everyone has different levels of it, a different response to it, and different needs because of that. I meet you where you are in your healing process in openness, acceptance, and unconditional positive regard. It is my hope to help bring you more fully and deeply into that whole, healed, and happy version of yourself that you are looking and ready for if you are searching in these profiles. While I'm not currently able to provide medicine, I provide Ketamine integration services for those who received medicine with or w/o previous integration

Are you looking for a way to improve your overall well-being? I provide a safe and neutral counseling space for individuals, couples and families to work towards an overall improvement within their relationships, everyday life and mindset. One's choice to begin counseling is a positive decision towards self-care, improved relationships and a proactive way to handle life's hardships. Counseling provides an opportunity to learn ways to gain control over one's life, whether that be through trauma healing, relationship repair or one's own self awareness. I believe that the power of empathy within counseling can be life changing.

Have you been struggling with the same problems, thoughts, or feelings for weeks, months, or even years and can't seem to get them under control? Are your intimate, social, and work relationships being affected by the reoccurring problems and thoughts? It's very frustrating when your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are not in line with your values and who you want to be. You know that if you could just learn to let go of the past and focus on the present, then your life and relationships will improve; but you just don't know how. Is there hope?

I believe a person is not defined by a diagnosis, behavior, interpersonal conflict, or psychological trauma. However, I understand the influence they can have on our lives. As Dr. Gabor Mate states, "What we call the personality is often a jumble of genuine traits and adopted coping styles that do not reflect our true self at all but the loss of it." Through compassionate inquiry, I strive to assist individuals in understanding how our emotional well-being and social connectivity are intimately intertwined with addictions, health, and disease.
