I am an adolescent and young adult therapist with a passion for helping young people navigate the challenges that life presents. I specialize in helping those with anxiety, or who have experienced trauma to gain the insight and skills they need to live the life they want. My approach to therapy is collaborative, helping clients to find the solutions that work for them. I believe therapy should be a combination of gaining insight into yourself as well as developing concrete strategies and skills to create change.

Accepting new clients! It is not always easy separating our personal lives from our professional lives when the boundaries we try to maintain in order to excel in both spheres often bleed into each other. You want to bring the best of yourself to all facets of your life, but when issues such as substance abuse, depression, marital strife, family problems, & conflicts with co-workers are so prevalent, how do we cope? What do we do with our mental and emotional baggage? How do we remain balanced and calm when the world we live in demands so much of us?

Do you notice yourself bumping up against the same old patterns? You may have disturbing memories that plague you, or feel stuck and overwhelmed by the uncontrollable intensity of past trauma. Maybe you struggle with feeling that you aren't good enough or deserving enough. Maybe you feel weighed down by emotional pain or shame that you can't seem to shake. So often our painful past experiences color our present perceptions, keeping us in a rut, circling through the same negative thoughts and feelings. I help those who feel imprisoned by their trauma break free and find empowerment and healing.

You had imagined your life unfolding in this uniquely wonderful way; having a career that fulfilled you and you were excited about, a strong and committed relationship and a great group of friends who supported you and you share exciting experiences with. Now it feels like some areas are just ok and other seem to not be working at all. It also seems like others lives are going great when you look at social media. You feel stuck. Uncertain of the next move or even how to get back to a place of feeling confident and empowered.

Reaching out for help is a courageous milestone. Who you choose to invite into your journey is a very important decision. That’s why I believe the strength of the therapeutic relationship is essential for transformation, empowerment, and healing to take place. I utilize my empathetic and relational oriented style to form authentic alliances during this life changing work. I use approaches from evidence-based theories including Psychodynamic, CBT and Feminist Theory. Our environments influence us heavily which is why I observe each human experience uniquely through the lenses of societal and cultural realities.

Personal crises can be difficult but they can also present opportunities for growth and change. This may not seem possible when you are in the middle of one. The path to getting back on track is challenging but can be rewarding. Therapy is hard work but the benefits are well worth the effort. Your crisis may be the catalyst, psychotherapy the vehicle, and the therapist your guide. My mission is to promote, inspire, and support healing and self-actualization; my goal is your personal transformation.

Waitlist for new clients
When you were young, you imagined things would all come together when you became an adult. Others may see you as successful, composed, or upbeat, but they don’t see the whole picture. They know nothing about your anxious thoughts, about your past and the way it still affects you, or your insecurities. Some days it can be hard to look in the mirror after comparing yourself to those on social media, siblings and friends, or to your own high standards. Words like "stay positive" and "be grateful" can leave you feeling unheard or misunderstood. It feels impossible to be excited or motivated for life when you feel this way.

Change for the better is good. Yet any change is difficult. Many of us do well at managing our lives by mitigating our problems with justifications like, "It's not that bad...things could be worse." Until, one day, the epiphany hits, and we realize that we need help. I urge my patients to excavate patterns from their past that may be holding them back, so we can work toward solutions and strategies for bettering their lives and relationships.
