I have extensive experience in the treatment of Depression, Anxiety,Panic disorders, and Relationship Issues. My approach to a person's problems involves the entire person. I have been trained extensively in the Neurobiological approach to treatment, which is often referred to as the Mind-Body connection. Having problematic physical symptoms as a result of being depressed and/or anxious is becoming more common and is very stressful. Our immune system, our ability to ward off disease can be greatly affected by our emotions. Depression, Anxiety/Panic, as well as the Stress caused by physical symptoms are very debilitating.

There is a solution. There is hope. And there is healing. Anxiety, depression, disordered eating, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, disruption in relationships, substance abuse, and on and on. These are curable, changeable, healable issues. When you go straight to the root of the issue, you can bring deep, lasting change. And we now know that the root of every mental health disorder (and many physical diseases as well) is some form of unresolved trauma. Trauma refers to any moment in our lives that we were unsafe in some way. Big or small, single events or years-long patterns-if we aren't able to process it, we store it.

Welcome! Congratulations on taking the first step towards leading an authentic life. Many clients are seeking a safe space to discuss their challenges and difficulties in life. Some clients are seeking to discover their own strengths and looking for assistance in finding their voice. A strong therapeutic relationship is an important aspect of treatment, and I provide a warm, caring, structured environment in which to learn, share and grow.

Accepting new clients in person and via video. I offer a welcoming, supportive space for you to gain insights and practical skills to enhance your well-being. Deep-seated beliefs can often limit us and the stress of modern life can overwhelm our systems. I can help you create a personalized plan to feel differently about yourself, achieve your goals, and find more ease and calmness in your life. Our body can get into a state where it is dysregulated both physically and psychologically. We can learn to self-regulate and experience greater tranquility, joy, and happiness, while managing sadness, anger, and anxiety more effectively.

Are you looking for a place to begin healing? Have you tried many other things, only to feel disappointed that life's challenges continue to be more complex than you thought? An effective therapy process creates space and understanding for the purpose of transforming life's struggles and disappointments. In the process, a renewed capacity for more satisfying relationships, greater effectiveness, resiliency and coping skills begin to emerge. Life becomes meaningful and purposeful. In a professional, caring environment, I seek to uncover the patterns and difficulties of the past and create an environment where healing and recovery can take place.

If you're looking to understand your anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationships, I am so happy you're here. Often times we find ourselves repeating and recreating patterns without totally understanding why, or maybe you have a lot of awareness but get overwhelmed by being stuck in it. I am here to support you in the journey to feeling at home with yourself. Though it can seem overwhelming at first, you are worth this next step.

Is it a gnawing sense of anxiety, and loneliness that gets in your way? Often, I meet people who are up against strong self-criticism, doubt, low self esteem and transitions in life as they attempt to make it through the day. In my experience people come to therapy looking for something they can’t get elsewhere. You are not alone. Together we can resolve these struggles opening-up to new potential and life purpose.
