Hello and thank you for taking the time to view my profile and taking the first step in your journey. Everyone has a unique story and circumstances. Sometimes we get so overwhelmed and don't know where to start. I am here to help navigate the process and identify needs and goals. What do you want from therapy? If things were better what would they look like? What is your best possible you and life? Are you as happy as you can be? No goal is too big or too small :) Therapy is a collaborative process and mutual trust is critical to success.

During stressful times, constant worrying, anxiety, anger, and sadness surfaces and causes disruption with relationships, sleep, eating habits, and health. I strongly believe in the mind and body connection and, with help, stress can be an opportunity for emotional growth. I utilize my clinical experience and evidence-based therapeutic interventions to motivate clients and families towards their own emotional growth. I tailor various therapeutic approaches according to what works for my client and what my client needs to meet their goals.

Are you looking to heal, transform, understand, and manage your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to achieve a more meaningful, fulfilling, peaceful, joyful, and balanced life? Are you interested in improving, tuning in, accepting parts of yourself that may benefit from being explored? I understand that attending counseling may feel threatening, intimidating, or awkward at the beginning. However, the road often gets smoother as you experience it. I have ample experience assisting individuals challenged by depression, anxiety, loss and grief, relational issues, the search for meaning and purpose, self-improvement, etc.

My approach to therapy is psychodynamic and existential, and I usually see clients long term. In therapy we explore who you are, and how you came to be this way. Key concepts that come up regularly include insight, trauma, attachment, resilience, mindfulness, intention, and values. My clients are curious, sincere, and focused on pursuing the most congruent and authentic version of themselves. And they want to understand what it is that’s getting in the way when they can’t achieve this.
