Do you have PPO insurance? I can help! You show up every day, giving your all - to your family, your work, and your community. Yet, the past and present still weigh you down, keeping you from the life you want to live. Whether it’s trauma/stress, a relationship with a narcissistic or borderline person, fertility/reproductive trauma, addiction struggles, or coping with the pressures of modern life, it can all feel overwhelming. You hope for lasting change but don't know where to start. Together, we develop insights and solid boundaries to connect you to what matters most instead of always responding or reacting in undesirable ways.

Sadness, grief and worry are normal human experiences. However, when they endure for long periods of time or when you are overwhelmed by the effects of stress or trauma, if you have difficulty sleeping or concentrating or you feel hopeless or helpless, then it may be time to visit a skilled therapist.

Life sure does have its' ups and downs, this is true for all of us! Life can be exciting and fun, as well as frustrating and painful.

Psychotherapy can be an opportunity for self reflection, growth and healing. When life seems to be stagnant, painful or overwhelming, a therapist can offer solace, guidance and a container for the psychological process. I have spent over 20 years accompanying others on the journey through healing and have found that a deep connection to ones own soul can offer a road to a life of meaning and wholeness. I seek to offer safety and curiosity as we work through whatever is causing pain and struggle in the life of the clients I treat.

I help those identifying as female to create the life they desire through processing emotions, shifting negative core beliefs, and rediscovering their own power.
Being a woman in a world with the pressure to have it all together creates little space for our own self-care. Often we are so focused on taking care of others or finishing all the tasks of the day that we let our own needs go. You may be in the middle of a life transition like starting college, settling into your career, or becoming a mom and wonder why it feels so hard. You may question if therapy is right for you. I create a supportive and comfortable environment that is solely dedicated to your overall wellness. I will guide you through processing your experiences, emotions, and creating opportunities for growth.

Reality check. Life really isn't one big happy party. Stuff happens. Bad stuff. Sometimes, really bad stuff that shakes you to the core, leaving a sense of loss and disconnection from the things you love. At the other end of the continuum are the little bumps along the way. The hiccups that take you out of the comfort zone temporarily and just need a little smoothing. Hopefully, that's where most of life happens. If not, therapy may help. Wherever you fall on the spectrum of life's challenges and whatever your age, let's work together to get you closer to a happy, healthy, fulfilling life.

It has been my privilege to work alongside families, couples, and individuals identifying strengths, increasing insight around problems and developing a plan to improve quality of life. It's hard to find a therapist. When we connect I will be interested in your goals for therapy, and why you are seeking a therapist right now. I welcome your questions about who I am and specifics on what my treatment plan might be for you.

We are meant to work together if you are in one of the following categories: 1.) The Frustrated Adult fed up with continuing to hold yourself back from improving your life. Your mind gets in your way of believing you can create a more fulfilling and satisfying existence, and your behavior stays the same. Or, 2.) The Couple who loves each other & wants to finally ACT like they love each other, and stop the awful cycle they’ve been stuck in for years. An endless feedback loop of the same infuriating fights and seemingly hopeless & tiring perpetual problems keep invading your love and joy.
