What brings you here today? - Stress, anxiety, guilt, loss, or relationship struggles? Anger, hurt, depression, self-identity or self-worth issues? Maybe you’ve noticed being “triggered” by people or situations, or have trouble letting go of painful events from the past. Perhaps you’re aware of negative patterns - different partner, job, or location - but still deal with the same issues. Over time, any of these issues can wear you down, affecting you and your relationships with others, including your partner, family, friends and loved ones. However, you can heal and experience lasting change.

I know what it feels like to want to be your best self so badly but struggle with getting there. You have high standards, big goals, and lofty dreams and yet the day to day is a constant source of stress, anxiety, overwhelm, guilt, and shame. You want to be the best at everything-the best partner, friend, worker and have the best body and dream life. And with all this pressure then comes this sense that you're doing something wrong or that there is something wrong with you, and you'll never get there. However, what if I told you, none was the case. That the secret to your dreams is being you right now, alive, joyous, and free.

My experience enables me to offer effective outpatient, individualized, psychological care. I treat a number of mental health disorders, and provide a neutral ground to individuals, families, children, and couples. Parenting is not an easy road to navigate. I am effective in helping parents learn new skills to help them manage behavioral concerns with children and teens; as well as teaching new strategies to children and teens to help improve cohesiveness within the family system. Traumatic events can feel paralyzing. I am passionate in working through trauma to help an individual to find their inner strength, and happiness again.

Do you live in constant fear? Are you overwhelmed by grief? Do you find yourself feeling sad, withdrawn, irritable, and lonely? Are you struggling to communicate with your teen? Do you often wonder why they behave in certain ways? If so, I would like to help. We all would like to think we are strong enough to overcome these issues on our own, but there comes a time when we need to reach out for additional help. I specialize in treating trauma (specifically sexually abuse), mood disorders, and grief. I also have worked extensively with teens and their families, so I know the problems that are unique to teens.
