I want to help you find your center again. Anxious or depressive thoughts pop up and interrupt the life you are trying to lead. The story you thought was going to play out for your life, somehow just doesn't happen. I want to help you rewrite whatever parts of your narrative aren't working for you. You can find a way toward a better life, but you have to understand how your story impacts the way you show up in your own skin and the way you pursue relationship. If hope feels hard to find, I can help. The life you want can feel more in reach, as you find a better understanding of who you were meant to be.

You want relief from anxiety and depression and you are coming to therapy for help. You struggle to numb painful emotions in order to get through your busy life. But listening to the voice of these feelings, to really uncover the deeper needs associated with these feelings can be our roadmap toward wholehearted living. I can help you uncover your true self.

My approach includes Emotionally Focused Therapy and Attachment-based techniques for individuals and couples. I offer unique approaches to therapy including half-day or full-day intensives and counseling at off-site locations. I understand the courage it takes to seek out counseling, and continue to do my own work, individually and in marriage therapy.
