I have witnessed positive changes that offer relief from emotional and relationship struggles. It is very rewarding to help clients discover their own strengths and successfully manage their problems.

I strive to have a gentle hand in encouraging people to see their value, sort out challenges and accomplish their goals.

Love, sex...and trauma. Are your reactions getting in the way of your relationships? After experiencing stress we can experience anxiety, spaciness, tension, temper flares, relational conflict, or intense shame or worthlessness. Trauma can be obvious - a sudden, horrible event, but for many, life has been overwhelming, disconnected or emotionally isolated for a very long time. I use creative and innovative experiential therapies to help you decrease the anxiety and anger living in your body, even for those who have been in talk therapy for a long time or those for whom talk therapy or CBT has only been minimally effective.

I enjoy working with people to reach solutions toward a more emotionally balanced and fulfilling life. It can be difficult to acknowledge that an area in your life feels overwhelming. Perhaps it is a feeling of being stuck and wanting more. I work with individuals to identify what patterns in thinking, feeling or behavior have become problematic. It is my privilege to work with clients in discovering what they really want for their life.

Tell me if this sounds familiar— you and your partner aren’t seeing eye-to-eye on an issue. This turns into a frustrating argument with hurt feelings, and one of you wants to fix things right now, while the other wants a break. In the meantime, both of you feel unheard and are becoming more disconnected from each other. Maybe you aren’t struggling in a relationship, but you don’t have motivation or excitement in life. You have tried pushing through hard days, but it doesn’t seem to be working and you want a new path forward. Whatever your road to arrive on my profile, I am so glad you did. Let me explain how I might be able to help.

My view on therapy is very simple, though not always easy: 'through relationships, we heal’. Many of the barriers that inhibit healthy relationships include negative self-talk, fear of judgement, and our need to maintain a sense of control, especially when we are deeply hurt or wounded. Trauma does not discriminate and it does not wait for an opportune time to present, but we can make sense of it and heal old wounds that hold us back from really connecting with those we love.

Do you feel entangled in unsupportive behaviors, thought patterns or relationships? Are you overwhelmed by anger, guilt, shame, or stress and seeking relief? Or are you simply looking for help in creating the life you know you are meant to lead? As a Life Empowerment Guide and Health Psychology Coach, I combine the principles of psychology and health promotion to help individuals improve their overall well-being and achieve their health-related goals. I lead customized one-on-one sessions with compassion and guide you in improving your emotional, physical, social, and spiritual well-being.
