My expertise include trauma, chronic illness/pain, bipolar disorder, addiction, and relationship problems.
Life can be hard and at times we need help.

Positive change through therapy can provide you with more stability, greater self-confidence, more compassion for yourself and others, increased satisfaction with your life, improved relationships, a feeling of satisfaction and ease about daily life, and the ability to take risks and advance professionally.

A trusting relationship is necessary for growth and change.
Life can be very difficult and relationships can be the source of much joy, but also of much pain. Talking about your problems with a non-judgmental, understanding, caring, and well-trained professional can help with life's questions, pain, and problems.
I enjoy using a collaborative approach to help people find their own meanings. I specialize in working with young adults facing life's transitions and the accompanying feelings, fears, and decisions. I will work with you to process challenges with relationships and work through feelings of fear, uncertainty, and loneliness.

So much of life is about relationships, beginning with the relationship with oneself. I believe this is the foundation upon which people thrive. The therapeutic relationship is at the crux of self-discovery and personal growth, and through this connection, individuals begin to develop a greater understanding of themselves, their thoughts, feelings, behaviors, motivations and desires. This translates into a more empowered sense of self, improved relations with others, and ultimately a better quality of life.

Perhaps you long to develop a kinder relationship to yourself.
Many of us turn to therapy when life's challenges leave us unsure how to care for ourselves or move forward in meaningful ways. Painful experiences often shape our ability to meet our own needs. Whether we are repeating relational patterns, overworking, withdrawing from loved ones, struggling with disordered eating or substance abuse—when we become tangled in one of life’s knots, it can be so hard to know how to cope. This can create an endless cycle of difficulty in our lives, complicating our relationship with ourselves and others. No matter where you find yourself today, I hope you know that things can get better.

I aim to assist couples in identifying their underlying issues, practicing healthy communication, and setting appropriate expectations within the relationship.
Mental health challenges are due to the aftereffects of traumatic experiences. Trauma can place a strain on your family, work, relationships, and even cause issues with self-worth. I specialize in trauma therapy along with treating personality disorders, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and addiction. All these disorders can look different from person to person, and that is where our therapeutic journey of empowerment and self-exploration begins. I concentrate on creating a safe space of growth and self-discovery through unconditional positive regard, emotional regulation, and guided activities.

I work with adults, couples and families in dealing with a variety of issues such as, relationship issues, women's issues, parenting issues, mood disorders and addictions.
I believe there is a natural tendency toward growth, a desire to be more of ourselves and to enjoy the things we do. For many, that curiosity and vitality has been restricted or shut down. This may lead to feeling depressed, like nothing will change for you. Or anxious, it will only get worse. Or perhaps you sense things could be different and are frustrated, not knowing how to access that new way of being. Psychotherapy is a process through which you can understand how these feelings have come about and how to access your natural tendency toward wellness.

My approach to therapy is collaborative and catered to your specific needs. I am direct and active in session (as opposed to being a passive listener); I believe that this creates the most potential for rapid progress and growth. In addition to alleviating symptoms, therapy should enhance wellness, which is why I am passionate about using interventions that build upon your unique strengths, values and skills to help you reach your goals.

I focus on the root of discomfort, exploring past wounds and relationship dynamics.
We mask emotional pain with people-pleasing, perfectionism, care-taking, workaholism, and controlling tendencies. Often, this leads to exhaustion and resentment towards ourselves and loved ones. If this sounds like a cycle you’re stuck in, I can help you get out of it. Together, we’ll identify behaviors and patterns which no longer serve you, cultivate a deeper and more compassionate understanding of yourself, and bring a sense of relief into your life. Our sessions will feel collaborative, empowering, challenging and decompressing.

I have experience working with adults, teens, and young adults who are going through life transitions, struggling with depression, self esteem, anxiety, relationship issues and more.
Starting therapy can be both exciting and relieving, as well as initially daunting. Many people avoid therapy for fear of judgement, not thinking their issues are "that bad", or are afraid of facing themselves. When there's avoidance or lack of help, these problems tend to keep getting worse. I believe that therapy is all about creating a safe, compassionate, non-judgmental space where we can work together to help you shift your mindset, make better choices, and improve aspects of your life that may not be working. My approach is all about working as a team to help you reach your personal goals.

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
