Sometimes it isn't always easy to manage the many parts of our lives. At times, situations, fears, beliefs, and unmet needs make the goals of being content and happy seem hard to reach. While we do the best we can, that doesn't always seem to be enough. When things need to change, a genuine, empathic and thoughtful therapist can be part of the answer. It is a privilege to be trusted with an individual’s most vulnerable and painful experiences in the pursuit of more satisfying and healthy relationships, achieving personal goals, and navigating difficult life transitions, to bring increased personal fulfillment.

Anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, lasting effects of past trauma, and other sources of upset can be stressful and challenging to handle. Choosing therapy can be an important step in support of relief, healing, and reaching goals. In therapy, problems and challenges can be re-framed as opportunities for improved self-care, reflection, positive action, learning and growth. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, the Gottman Method for Couples, Mindfulness Techniques, current research on habit formation, as well as many other relevant and helpful tools to assist you in reaching your goals.

Together we will confirm your strengths and explore paths to sustainable change. Helping people with high emotional sensitivity to develop improved self-perception and more effective coping skills by building on the person they are and not trying to reinvent them is essential. We will begin by focusing on difficult issues in the present and then gain an understanding of past history. I use a range of therapy techniques that best fit each individual. Maturity, humor and a straightforward style enlivens the dialogue in our counseling sessions.

Sometimes problems show up, blocking us from the path we want to take in life. Be it anxiety or depression, grief or conflict, repetitive thinking or even substance misuse – these challenges don’t need to define you.

We all have difficulties in our lives and sometimes we need help identifying and exploring these difficulties as well as learning tools to address them and arrive at new ways of feeling, thinking and living. I work primarily in the areas of anxiety, LGBTQ+ concerns, relationships, stress management, life transitions and trauma. We will collaborate to explore your issues and come up with ways to help create change. I am compassionate, interactive, an empathetic listener, and connect well with clients. Many clients have reported that my approach has been comfortable and their process easier.

My clients come to me when they're experiencing emotional and/or mental distress and just want the pain to stop...now. They are sleep-deprived (or the opposite), stressed over college, depressed about work, angry or indifferent to everyone, anxious, frustrated by everything! Their stomachs hurt and heads ache. The problems may stem from unmet needs (love, belonging, self-esteem), various issues (trauma, anxiety, addiction, depression, chronic pain) or not meeting personal or life goals. While change can feel difficult and scary, you can learn powerful, safe ways through as you progress to becoming the person you truly want to be.

It hurts to feel lost. Have you been wondering how to find your way back, or find your way forward? Things can get better, relationships can heal, and deep connection can be built. Open and honest conversations might feel scary, but they can turn back the tide towards healing and caring.
