Are you feeling like your nervous system is perpetually stuck in an overactive state? Hello and welcome.

Throughout our lives, we all have experienced feelings of depression, anxiety, and anger. These emotions leave you feeling insecure, shameful, lonely, unworthy and stuck in unhealthy patterns of behavior. Trauma can have negative emotional and physical effects and can lead to family/relationship issues. I specialize in solution-focused brief therapy, motivational interviewing, mindfulness and CBT. These approaches allow me to work with the client to decrease symptoms of anxiety and depression and other health/behavioral issues.

When you are struggling individually or in your relationships, it can be hard to know where to begin, and harder at times to believe that getting what you need is even possible. You may have feelings you don't understand, experiences that you are trying to make sense of, or patterns that you feel stuck in. Your experiences and feelings are worthy of our curiosity and consideration. Through our conversations together, the therapy process can help us get to know you better, and open up possibilities for deepening understanding, compassion, connection, and resilience in your life.

Have you ever been told you're "dramatic," "too sensitive," or "too much?" I love working with folks who think and feel deeply. If you grew up with invalidating or abusive caregivers, it might be challenging now to know how to regulate your emotions. But emotional depth and sensitivity is also a great gift. You may be seeking therapy because your emotions are "out of control," your relationships are causing you anxiety, or you want to do a deep dive into your past traumas.

I provide coaching and therapy for individuals on the autism spectrum, as well as parent coaching. I have been developing my program and approach for 30 years now. My clients learn to understand autism on a deeper level as I work with them on black-and-white thinking, expressing emotions, and the need for masking. My clients learn to prioritize flexibility from a heartfelt standpoint to achieve a better career, relationship, or social life. I also train parents to teach this process to their children, which can include even beginning language and addressing challenging behaviors for levels 2 and 3.

I support and teach clients to get curious, connect and compassionately respond to their nervous system as well as the nervous systems of those around them and thrive in an distressing world. I work with kids, teens, adults, and couples using the research and skills I have trained with in Gottman Method, Polyvagal Equine Institute and Trauma Informed Healing. Sometimes we know where we want to go, but we just can't get there because we are standing in our own way. Other times we only know what we know until we learn something different.

Feelings and thoughts, at times, may be difficult to manage. Unprocessed trauma, anxiety, depression, painful entanglements, behavioral issues, and the lingering effects of damaging experiences can exhaust us. They may also interfere with relationships and affect behaviors. Developing meaning regarding our trauma's, difficult emotions and life events can be invaluable. My hope is provide understanding and insight for people to discover potentially destructive patterns, heal from trauma and past experiences and find what really matters to them. Managing strong emotions can lead to a more creative, flexible, and full life.
