You feel lost, anxious, down, confused and maybe even hopeless. You put your heart and soul into being there for others and strive to be a good person, and in the end, you feel used, alone and misunderstood. You’ve been hurt by people and wonder if you can trust anyone again, including yourself. You may be struggling with feelings of not belonging, worthlessness or simply not good enough. You doubt yourself while trying to not give up hope. You do your best every day to find control in your life wherever possible, sometimes in the wrong places. You may struggle with trying to understand why you feel this way and how you got here.

If you're looking for another therapist who just sits there with a note pad and every once in a while asks, "and how did that make you feel?” – you’ve got the wrong guy. If what you actually need is a relational, interactive therapist, who will offer you feedback, clarity and suggestions on how to improve your experience of living, then you’ve found your man. The work of healing is a deeply personal pursuit, one that requires looking inward with vulnerability, and my job is to guide and support that process of growth. I can help to point you in the directions where personal insight, progress, and development are possible.

I became a therapist because I am a firm believer in the power of human connection. I understand that the most important thing is the therapeutic relationship. Therefore, I provide a gentle, non-judgmental approach to make clients feel safe and heard. This allows clients to develop trust with another person, which ultimately leads them to grow and to believe and trust in their own inner voice and intuition.

When we are feeling down and in need of support, we all deserve someone to talk to about our experiences. Sometimes it's not easy to communicate with those we are closest to about what we are feeling. I'm here to support individuals and families in processing their emotions and life experiences in a supportive and constructive environment. My goal when working with families is often to bridge the communication gap between adults and children. Some areas I specializes in are disruptive behaviors, depression, anxiety, trauma, attachment and communication challenges. Please reach out for a consultation if ever you need support.

Do you feel anxious, sad, worried, overwhelmed, or stressed? Do you have difficulty coping with life challenges? Do you find getting through the day to day activities of life more strenuous lately? It can be isolating to not only feel painful emotions, but difficult to relate to those in our lives when we’re not feeling like ourselves, leaving us feeling more alone. That’s where therapy can help. I’m a therapist who listens, seeks to understand your experience, and supports you with tools to help you feel better. I’m a CBT Certified Beck Clinician and EMDR trained; two well-researched modalities with proven results.
