My specialty is working with all types of relationships that are stressed. I believe in exploring what I call "clashing vulnerabilities." We all have triggers, and when they are present, there really is no one listening. We all need to be heard. I also work with grief and with aging.

Finding a therapist can be challenging, a sea of faces and similar profiles. I encourage you to make some calls and talk with multiple therapists. You will know when it is a good fit. If you call me, I will offer you an experienced and grounded presence, a commitment to walking with you on your journey, and compassion, empathy and curiosity to find healing and acceptance. Therapy can be a transformational experience in a safe and collaborative space. There are many tools that we both have and can use to create insight and connection and I look forward to accessing the tools with you.

Every person is different and deserves to develop a deeper understanding of themselves, their potential, and their personal desires. My eclectic approach combines psychodynamic, CBT, and DBT skill techniques with an individualized approach for each client.

As we face uncertainty in our lives now more than ever, it is essential that we learn tools to help us capture internal peace, despite external circumstances. I recognize the true power that curiosity and a listening ear can have in honoring our life experiences while tapping into our inner strengths and resources. I assist children, adolescents, and young adults in navigating life transitions, stress, depression and anxiety from an atmosphere of compassion and acceptance. I guide parents in finding a deeper understanding of their child’s behavior - allowing them to truly “see” their child while helping them cope with big feelings.

You feel isolated. You don't recognize yourself after this loss. People are telling you things that are more hurtful than helpful. You are not who you were before your loss but you still aren't sure who you are now, or who you will become. You miss your loved one and want to tell others the story of how they died, how important they were to you, and how much this sadness impacts your life but you feel like they don't want to truly listen. You may even take care of others by not talking about your grief when that's all you actually want to do.
