Many of us come to therapy because we are experiencing symptoms, feelings or circumstances that we want to change. Only to discover that there might be deeper things that we desire, that the symptoms are only the surface. We discover that we want to find our purpose or calling, that we want freedom from expectations, freedom from fears. We are seeking meaningful and honest relationships. We wish to communicate efficiently. We crave inspiration, imagination, creativity, and clarity. We long to move forward, wherever that place is. We want to expand and feel the infinity that we are and explore all possibilities in our lives.

"I focus on daily life coping strategies with teenagers, individuals, and couples. At times we all get stuck and some of our old habits might not be working well for us. We may need to create new behaviors, thoughts, and feelings to improve our quality of life and relationships with others."

Life's experiences are wide-reaching. At times we struggle with our thoughts, our emotions, how we interact with others, and our beliefs about ourselves. Sometimes we are able to navigate through these situations quite well. Other times our capacity to cope and manage these concerns become limited. While both responses are completely normal, it can be helpful to have a supportive voice along the way via therapy.

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW. ) I have provided mental health services since 2006, with over 10 years as a licensed clinical social worker.

I value the bravery it takes to prioritize mental health care and listen to the part of yourself seeking change. Psychotherapy is a collaborative relationship dedicated to your growth, focused on your goals, and fueled by curiosity. In therapy we cultivate a safe space to tend to your thoughts, emotions, and what you’re dealing with. To foster lasting change, we work to understand the causes of your symptoms and the dynamics of your emotional life.
