Are you feeling overwhelmed or find it hard to find meaning in everyday life? Perhaps, on the surface, you appear to have it all together, but internally, you feel like you're falling apart. You've dedicated yourself to work and relationships, yet a sense of inadequacy persists. Do you sometimes feel stressed, exhausted, unfulfilled, or disconnected? When triggered do you shut down, have unexpected emotions, or dissociate? I aim to provide a sanctuary for you to explore your experiences, emotions, and parts of yourself without judgment. My goal is to support you in reclaiming your own power and passion for a more fulfilling life.

With 27+ years of experience as a seasoned therapist, I provide a "sauna for your feelings," a safe space and container for you to step away from your life to reflect, release and re-align. My goal is to facilitate the identification of difficult thoughts, feelings, and past experiences that prevent us from being comfortable with who we would like to be, what we want, and the kind of relationships that we want to have with others. I find that people who fully invest in themselves have the greatest rate of success.

Navigating change, challenging circumstances, and the journey that is growing up can be difficult for us all – especially young individuals. As a therapist with a history of working in community mental health, I’ve fostered my passion for supporting individuals in finding their own path through the chaos, empowering them to identify, connect, and own their true selves in the process. I operate from a place of compassion, empathy, and empowerment through personal education to support kids, teens, and young adults to learn not only how to move through the world, but how to flourish in it.

At the end of the day, most, if not all of us want to feel a sense of safety, inner peace, and freedom. Traumas at all stages of life rob us of these basic needs, and can instead make us feel anxious, depressed, and unmotivated. I will work with you to uncover the parts inside that long to feel safe, joyous, and free. While these parts may feel far away, together, we will get in touch with them.

Are you unsatisfied with your sex life or feel hopeless in your relationship? Have you never had sex with your partner and afraid it’s too late? Does bringing up difficult topics often lead to arguments and unresolved tension? After enough time, couples feel resentful, defeated, misunderstood, and invalidated. Couples therapy isn’t just about your relationship, it’s also about understanding who you are and how you show up as a partner. As your couples therapist, I'll help you find the words to express your feelings, become unstuck, connect with your partner, and broaden your definition of sex, resulting in more fun and less stress.

I combine a warm and direct approach with evidence-based practices (and a splash of humor) to help you unpack, examine, and rewrite the narratives in your life. Drawing from modalities such as Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Internal Family Systems, we will work to align your thoughts and actions with your values so that you can lead the life you want. I view relationships and identity development through the lens of attachment theory with the goal of helping you draw clear connections from the past to the present and into an expansive and joyful future.

As a former teacher, I know first hand how difficult it can be to support kids day-in and day-out. Working with a therapist can be one of the best places to start, whether it’s for you as a parent or your kid.

When it comes to relationships, we can find ourselves stuck on “rinse-and-repeat” (or occasionally, just “spin.”) However, through insight and a smattering of behavioral interventions, we can learn to separate that which is ours and that which we have been holding onto for someone else, allowing us to reimagine ourselves and our relationships. I work with adults, teens, couples, and families, and specialize in working with folks who struggle with anxiety and relational trauma.

In working with adolescents and young adults, I often see them struggle with unconscious pattern behaviors that relate to early experience. The unspoken or unprocessed trauma or negative experience can affect people for years. My role in therapy is to support clients in raising awareness of their feelings, thoughts, and needs, which can help them make healthier decisions and achieve self-actualization.

Within the safety of the therapeutic relationship that we will co-create together, I can help you tune into your emotional experience so you can express yourself authentically.

If you are confused and uncertain whether you are on the "right" path in your career, relationships, or important life choices, then therapy may be a great avenue for you to explore and find the answers that are unique to you. Sometimes it can be really hard to "hear" or "feel" your truth, your intuition, and gut instinct when doubt clouds your mind and the internal dialogue and chatter are loud and debilitating. Having low self-esteem, or feeling insecure in relationships and goals in life can be stressful and anxiety provoking.

Transitions can create disconnect and emotional distress. Becoming a parent can be especially challenging. We may feel overwhelmed, burned out, or just struggling to find joy. Our relationships may suffer, creating feelings of isolation and loneliness. Interrupted sleep and added stress make it hard to engage in daily life. We may carry guilt or shame as we struggle to fulfill the needs of those we love, leaving our own needs unmet. The transition to parenting young children may also mark a shift in identity, struggling to define who we are and "how to remain me." Being a parent does not have to be so hard — relief is in reach.

You are highly insightful and perceptive but find yourself trapped in a cycle of overthinking, self-criticism, or placing the needs of others above your own. Unable to shake the feeling that something is inherently wrong with you or that certain parts of you are unacceptable, you try to numb away this feeling, which might manifest in tendencies such as workaholism, incessantly consuming self-help content, or entering into unhealthy but addictive relationships. You're seeking healing that is in-depth and lasting.
