Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or defeated? Has worry taken over your life? Or maybe past trauma is resurfacing and is now also impacting your relationships while leaving you confused and frightened. While we often rationally believe in our strengths and potential for growth, our gut tends to reliably remind us that we are to blame, not good enough, unsafe, or powerless - because it feels so true. My deepest hope for our work together is for you to not only know that you are worthy of love and a fulfilled life but that you can also feel it in your body and live accordingly.

We all juggle many elements in everyday life which can become challenging and overwhelming in ways that lead to hardships or ailments in the form of anxiety, depression, and trauma. I have years of experience helping couples, families, adolescents, and adults find strength within and build upon their own resilience and overcome emotional, mental, and relationship challenges. I'm also experienced working with cultural awareness, first and second generational children of immigrant parents.

You are enough. Past experiences may have created a negative inner voice undercutting your self-worth and capacity for joy.

Navigating challenges around sex involves more than what happens between the sheets. Sex is a topic that is often met with secrecy, embarrassment, or shame and is shaped by cultural norms and societal expectations. These influences can impact our perception of what's deemed acceptable or “normal”. When issues arise, the fear of judgment often keeps us silent, trapped in a state of quiet desperation rather than seeking help. I am committed to creating a secure and non-judgmental space for clients to explore their sexuality, reshape it according to their desires, and affirm their true selves.

Reaching out to a therapist isn’t easy. It can be especially difficult for those who have tried therapy and been disappointed. Perhaps the therapy process felt too passive, and you felt unsupported. Or maybe you didn’t “click” with your therapist, and you left feeling misunderstood. Trying again after an unfulfilling experience takes tremendous courage. If any of this resonates with you, I’d love to help. Together, we can reflect on what has worked and not worked for you, and collaborate to make our work together helpful.

You need to talk to someone, someone who can help sort out the confusion and alleviate the anxiety. Holding in your feelings is making it worse. There's a part of you that's afraid, but there's a stronger part of you that's ready to "get it out". You're done with the fears that have kept you small and you're done with having to "bend" to care for others. You're now sick and tired, feeling alone, and frustrated. Aligning with your core values has become important. Discovering what you want and need has suddenly become more appealing. Striving to break free from who you think you should be is becoming what you're seeking.

The mask we wear covers how lonely we really feel. Are you going through the motions, when all you feel is lost, depressed, scared, and drained? Are you having trouble speaking up for yourself in relationships or struggling with boundaries at home or at work? Do you hold it all in, constantly frustrated? Is it hard to make life transitions right now? Are you crying in the car on the way to work while still telling everyone you are fine? Being the “strong one” is so tiring. It silences us. Let’s find your voice. You deserve a place to cry, vent, find your footing, and emerge your best self. I would be honored to help you do that.

As a therapist, I have experienced great fulfillment in helping my clients work through issues of addiction, depression; grief and loss; anxiety; social discomfort; relationship conflict/divorce; loneliness; low self esteem; mid-life crises; and fear of change. Helping women and men who struggle with love addiction and co-dependence is an area of special interest. My goal is to help my clients find ways to live a more fulfilling life while strengthening their ability to withstand life's inherent challenges.
