You're doing your best to get through life and curve balls it sometimes throws at you. But that doesn't mean that its easy, and you definitely don't have to do it alone! If you are struggling, with the challenges of life, relationships, family stress, work stress, anxiety, addiction, co-dependency, life-transitions, self-esteem, boundaries, etc., lets work together to help you manage and navigate the challenges that lay before you. I practice IFS, motivational interviewing, solution focused, narrative therapy, Jungian, and often implement a spiritual approach when applicable.

We tend to build shields to protect from uncomfortable and distressing thoughts and emotions because we're not taught how to manage or experience them without the feeling of drowning. Avoidance of, numbing, or collapsing into emotional storms can keep us stuck in unhelpful cycles and disconnect us from a life of vitality. It can feel impossible to get out of these cycles when our thoughts try to convince us that we're broken, stuck, or not good enough, especially when we're trying to do it alone. Sharing our struggles with someone else can help us learn to look at (instead of from) them, and then be able to see how to get unstuck.

Is something that happened in the past still getting in the way? You are not alone. Therapy can help you better understand yourself, your relationships, and your mental health challenges. You can learn skills and tools to overcome these challenges and feel more confident in your everyday life.

People seek therapy for all kinds of reasons, but common to all of them is the fact that their life is not working as well as they want. This can be for a multitude of reasons; anxieties, depression, relationship issues, lack of fulfillment, purpose or meaning. Psychological symptoms are signals that alert us to examine the obstacles that hinder us from moving through life more freely with a sense of aliveness and agency.

I believe that all of us, at different times in our lives, may face unexpected challenges. Whatever you may be feeling—overwhelm, sadness, worry, frustration, exhaustion, loneliness—if these feelings persist, you can find some relief, and you don’t have to do it alone. Taking the steps to start a professional relationship with a trusted therapist can be healing and life changing. As you explore and reflect on what may be happening in your life right now, you’ll gain greater clarity about what deeply matters most to you, and develop a more authentic connection to yourself and others you care about.

As a woman now in my early 40s (!), and mother of 3 with a blended family, I understand completely the cycle of being overly caretaking to the ones I love.
Are you a people pleaser who feels overwhelmed with helping others? Do you do everything for your family and leave no time at the end of the day for yourself? You feel overwhelmed, disconnected from who you were before children, family and the demands of your career and life. You would like to break the chains of self-doubt and overthinking. Many times throughout the day you feel you aren't doing enough, need a minute to rest but feel you can't take one. You look in the mirror and wonder who is looking back at you. You would love time off but can't justify taking it. You know it is enough and you need support.

I believe the purpose of therapy is to create a safe and validating environment where people can focus on creating a "life worth living". I help facilitate this journey by focusing on both acceptance and change in a warm, interactive and thoughtful fashion. If you are someone who is struggling to manage your emotions and behaviors because of anxiety, depression, or trauma we can work together to define the life you want and overcome the obstacles to it.

If you are struggling with relationships, codependency or anger, let's talk. Codependent behaviors like people pleasing, low self-esteem and giving too much create unhealthy, one-sided relationships. Maybe you're already in recovery but need more individualized help. You can change these patterns at your own pace and get relief. Anger management is another area where I can help. Whether you explode or stuff your anger, learn how to handle emotions in healthy way. Relationships and self-esteem improve when you have the skills it takes to take care of yourself and communicate effectively. You're not alone!
