By exploring and challenging these thoughts, the goal would be for you to overcome symptoms of depression and anxiety and begin to lead a life in which you feel more connected to yourself, others and the world.
Navigating life's challenges is never easy, but reaching out for help is a brave first step to living a more genuine and fulfilling life. I have expertise in working with individuals struggling with childhood trauma and trauma-related symptoms such as grief, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and relational conflict. I believe every client is unique and deserves to be listened to and understood in an empathetic way. I am passionate about creating a safe, kind, collaborative and judgment-free space where clients can attain new insights, experience new feelings, and find a renewed sense of physical and mental well-being.

I bring considerable life experience to my practice due to my curious nature.
Choosing a therapist can be difficult, complicated by therapy jargon. To put it simply, we will examine your past, evaluate your present, and collaborate on your future. Therapy is not without risk. However, I will provide a safe environment and a non-judgmental ear for you to explore your life and its infinite possibilities. You will determine where you want to go, and I will work with you to help you get there. I look forward to hearing from you.

I’m here to provide a safe, affirming space for you to develop an understanding of yourself to overcome past experiences or fears that define you.

As a working, divorced, and remarried mom, stepmother, and daughter of divorce and the military, I have had my share of traumatic life challenges.
I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and a Certified ADHD Professional. I work through a depth-psychology lens to pinpoint and heal developmental and trauma wounds by identifying unconscious/subconscious thoughts that create the symptoms that lead you to therapy. Meanwhile, I simultaneously provide knowledge and tools to empower and guide you to discovery of your true Self. During the pandemic I experienced and then trained in brainspotting, which I use in person, online, and over the phone to nuke the source of stubborn symptoms that have not responded to traditional talk therapy.

This benefits folks aiming to get organized around a goal or a dream, and discover what is possible through courageous experimentation with life and compounded small actions.
Do you wish to "restart" your life? This desire manifests differently for each of us, but the common factor is a sense that “something is missing.” In my practice, my clients and I work on understanding what has been in the way of taking action to fulfill that missing piece. We then create increased structure, focus, and schedule, alongside exploring your underlying reasons for not taking the level of action you wish to or your lack of motivation. If you feel a bit lost or have realized that you procrastinate around the endeavors and dreams that matter most to you, I can help you to gain clarity into your next step.

Life Coaching Therapists
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
