Are you looking for a local therapist who specializes in children and teens? Does your son or daughter seem anxious, sad/depressed or withdrawn? Has your child been struggling in school or with social relationships? I would love to help. I specialize in working with children, adolescents and families. I believe that effective therapy is based on a trusting relationship that empowers and makes space for positive change. My experience includes academic/school problems, behavioral issues, anxiety/depression, grief and loss, and social skills deficits.

Choosing a therapist can be difficult, but it doesn't have to be. You only have to call if you are interested in starting therapy with me. I have a number of specializations: from Drug Addiction issues to Depression/Anxiety: from sessions while hiking to group therapy for anxiety, dyslexia, depression, gender transitional, gender fluid individuals and lastly cutters/self Harm. I particularly do well with teenagers: angry, lost, without focus, and those teens that are perpetually sad/distracted. House Calls, Hiking and Biking therapy sessions are an option if you would like.

My goal is to help people in how they manage the stress and anxieties in life. Often, the way we perceive a problem greatly affects how we deal (or don't deal) with that problem. Building on insight and self-awareness, we can move the mountains in our minds, so we can see a clearer picture of ourselves, and the world around us-- improving our ability to cope, our self esteem, and the quality of our personal relationships. I will help provide you with practical and useful tools to cope with: Anxiety, Depression, Anger, Grief, Communication Issues, Difficult Relationships, and Life Transitions.

Feeling overwhelmed? Are you struggling to change? Do you know in your mind what you need to do but can't seem to change your pattern? Are you struggling to focus, stay present, or be productive? Maybe little things feel more frustrating, tense, or stressful than usual. Sometimes, we aren't sure what causes our distress, but we can sense we're not reaching our potential for health, happiness, or success. Even when we know the cause, change can still feel impossible. That's where I come in. My job is to listen without judgment, help you understand the root causes of your issues, and teach you practical tools to change your life.

Does your daily life feel like a perpetual "hamster wheel" leaving you feeling helpless, confused and stuck? I know life can be difficult, and it’s not always easy to show up for yourself. You might feel pulled in multiple directions, each task or responsibility vying for your attention. Maybe you’re struggling with burnout, impostor syndrome or low self esteem. Let's work together to go beyond symptom reduction or simply “fixing” the problem. Our work will allow you to explore and identify patterns and/or experiences in your life that are keeping you stuck and lead you toward a path of healing, growth, and change.

I also work with couples looking to cultivate healthy communication skills, a richer relational experience, a revived vibrancy. I commonly work with life transitions, parenting questions, and identity conflicts.
