Whether you are dealing with an unexpected change, trauma, anxiety, health challenge, relationship stress, depression or other mental health issue, having a trusted guide on the path can make all the difference. Over the past 25 years I have found mind body therapies get to the root of where we get stuck and allow for positive change.

Taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting, but know that you're not alone in this journey. As an EMDR-trained therapist who prioritizes the mind-body connection, I understand the complexities of your experiences and the profound impact they can have on your well-being. I want you to feel seen, heard and understood in our sessions. Together, we'll explore your thoughts, emotions, physical sensations, recognizing the interconnectedness between your mind and body. My experiences include working with individuals, families and couples with anxiety, trauma, life transitions, poor self-esteem and relational concerns.

Throughout our lives, we carry within us the voices, the gaze, acceptance or disapproval, the expectations, and the praise or criticism of those who have raised us and occupied our lives. Therapy can help us discover and clarify these powerful experiences and grow in our understanding of how they motivate us, giving us freedom to make more authentic decisions in our daily lives. I view therapy as an opportunity to heal, receive support, solve problems, improve relationships, and escape problems and patterns that seem to reappear over time.

I know what it's like to wonder if you're broken. You're feeling confused, frustrated, angry, and at war with yourself. I know you feel anxious all the time. That finding a direction for yourself is hard, because of the self-loathing that has become so normal for you, you don't even notice it half the time. I know that you know you "should" be accepting of your body and who you are, but you have tried in a million different ways and don't know how. So you get one more iced coffee; stay a little longer at work; binge that comfort show one more time, in an attempt to stave off the loneliness and pain.

**Currently focusing on web-based video sessions during Covid-19 issues - let's all be safe** We, as humans, create long-lasting patterns of beliefs and actions to help cope with life’s difficulties. However, as time passes, these deeply rooted patterns can cause growing pains. They also, unfortunately, become shadowed and intertwined in our selves. Like a tree’s thick roots, they need to be carefully excavated, nurtured, and soothed before they can be changed. My goal is to help you to see the internal struggle with your patterns and ease the pain around them so you can fill your day with joy and happiness.

Let's get real. There comes a time in everyone's life when you feel that you are at the end of your rope. You are seeking anyone who will truly listen and try to understand your pain. Is this you right now? You may be saying, HOW did I get here and why am I still stuck here? The challenge of the sudden loss of a loved one, the betrayal by your spouse, a defiant child, or just feeling lost can result in having panic attacks, racing thoughts, sadness you can’t shake, feeling abandoned, desiring to isolate, and using unhealthy coping behaviors. Sometimes things are just too difficult to bear alone. Let's talk.
