We all struggle at times, whether we are experiencing relationship difficulties, anxiety, grief, stress or just feeling stuck and unsure how to move forward in our lives. These times can feel frustrating, overwhelming and exhausting! Come to a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can share your emotional pain and struggles. Together, we can create effective strategies for healing and self-acceptance, discover and develop your inner strengths, resources and joy and allow you to more fully enjoy life. I bring nearly 20 years of experience, compassion and a sense of humor to the therapy process. My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming.

The issues which I enjoy working with the most are those related to relationships and family dynamics. One of the areas of most interest to me is working with individuals who are coming out of a relationship with a partner who had narcissistic personality traits. I became licensed as a marriage and family therapist in 1998 and have worked as a family therapist in substance abuse treatment programs, residential treatment programs for children and adolescents, and residential treatment programs for women. I also work with many individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and trauma.

“I can’t stop worrying about everything.” “Everyone leaves me.” “I need to make a change, but I feel stuck.” “No one understands what I’m going through.” I see you, and I am so glad that you're here. Life doesn't stop for us, even amid our greatest struggles. The difficult seasons may feel all-encompassing—and I believe therapy should be a space where you can take the time you need to process, explore, grow, and heal. This is your time—I'm here to listen to your story and illuminate the strengths within as we work toward your unique goals.
