Let me guess....you're here because something isn't going the way you hoped, or maybe life is ambiguous and feels like a lot to handle.

I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist for more than 15 years. We are the experts on ourselves, but we forget about this when life takes an unexpected turn. There is nothing wrong with you that what's right with you cannot fix. Let's start putting the puzzle pieces together in a different way. I am accepting new clients.

Most of us are looking for peace, with ourselves, in relationships and as we move through our world. In cultivating peace, we may need support in managing difficult emotions or working through a loss or traumatic experience. Whether you are looking to manage grief, depressive symptoms or anxiety, or you desire to cultivate a deeper relationship with yourself and others, knowing our own truth is key. The answer is in each of us; we may just need a little guidance in finding it. I deeply love the work of meeting people where they are and guiding & creatively companioning them into work that enables a richer, more peaceful life.

Since 2008, I’ve worked with numerous individuals to help them connect to themselves, to heal, to reach the life they desire, to feel authentic and whole.

As of July 2024, my practice has limited openings. Life is sometimes stressful, confusing, and painful, presenting us with unique challenges to overcome. I help clients with clinical and practical interventions to work on goals such as regaining confidence, getting unstuck, improving daily functioning, stopping drinking, and improving relationships. According to Jon Kabat -Zinn, a mindfulness-based stress expert, "You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf." I believe in embracing and practicing acceptance of pain, which can lead to a decrease in human suffering.

You've experienced a loss and you feel like you've lost yourself. Living on autopilot, joy is a distant memory. You feel like something's missing and even wonder about your purpose. Relationships have become distant, work is unfulfilling, numb and avoidant is a common state. You want to re-engage with life, to feel like yourself again, but you just feel stuck and unable to move forward. Together, we’ll develop a program to help you release emotional burdens, and regain a sense of connection with your true self and the world around.

Our approach to therapy is humanistic, nonjudgemental, and down to earth. Client-centered and solution-focused therapies are used to help people determine and tackle their goals. We approach each individual as an already whole person with the capacity to change no matter what challenges they are experiencing.
