Hello! So glad that you've come to my profile. My ideal patient is readily looking to change. They've recognized that they want something different. They might be feeling unheard, unimportant, or lost. They may think poorly of themselves. They might even feel hopeless and like this is their last-ditch effort, but part of them still believes there is more. Part of them believes that they deserve something better and they are willing to fight for that better future they deserve. They are willing to stretch themselves, to be uncomfortable, and to do the hard work it takes to change. I want to help them do so.

Wherever you are in your therapy journey, just starting out and have never been or have been in therapy for some time, I am happy to meet and join you toward reaching your goals.

My background is in chemical dependency training at state and local hospitals where I worked at various levels of care from those who are very early in recovery to those with sustained recovery and ending at a community mental health facility where I supported individuals in transitioning to medication assisted treatment out of Department of Corrections. I was trained as a Sexual Assault Crisis Counselor and worked supporting survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence while they transitioned out of narcissistic patterns of abuse. I have worked with children who have mood disorders, attachment disorders, and conduct disorders.

Feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and tired? Are you regularly avoiding simple daily tasks? Does it feel like you’re not being heard or understood by the people you care about the most? I know how that feels and I also know how amazing it feels to get through difficult periods in life. Feeling better isn’t easy, but I’ve found that with the right support, it is possible. It takes strength to admit that you are struggling and even more to seek help, so I truly mean it when I say “Great Job Taking the First Step!” You do not have to do this alone and I welcome the opportunity to support you with whatever your struggles may be.

I create a safe space wherein you can explore and heal personal struggles, depression, anxiety, troubled relationships, attachment injury, struggles with intimacy, and much more. A space that is free of judgement, where issues such as trust and feelings of worthlessness can be explored, and vulnerabilities shared without fear of being shamed or rejected. Your hope and longing for healing, and the capacity for rational, sustainable loving relationships are achievable. I have extensive professional experience treating individual, adults, adolescents and children, as well as couples and families. Know the choice is yours.

Do you have a core sense that you aren't good enough or that you don't quite feel whole? Maybe you have tried therapy, mindfulness, or read self-help books in the past. Nonetheless, you continue feeling anxious, tense, on edge, or worried as to how you can keep this up for another day, just barely holding it all together enough to get by. Maybe you have conflict in your relationships, problems at work, or a great sense of inner turmoil. The truth is, it doesn't have to be that way.

We all need someone to talk to. It's never too late to seek help, reflect, and pursue change within ourselves. Life can become more complicated as we continue our journey. Dealing with life transitions, coping with important relationships, sadness over losses, or adjusting to the changes around us can cause a great deal of stress. Sifting through your life story is a brave and important task and taking that first step to seeking counseling is a courageous one. Allow me to support and provide you with the strategies to help you navigate through life's challenges.

I believe we all have the capacity to learn and grow as individuals. I also believe it can be hard to heal our deepest wounds without support from others. I strive to cultivate a nonjudgmental, supportive space where my clients feel safe to work on sensitive issues. The first goal of therapy is often to improve your ability to deal with whatever problem is immediately in front of you. The next is to raise awareness of patterns in your daily life that prevent you from obtaining the peace and fulfillment you desire. We'll work together to get unstuck and find a way forward.

I ground my therapeutic work on supporting person’s inherent strive to change and grow, as well as on potential to heal and adapt. My relational approach to therapy is based on discovering personal or relational wants, needs, and traumas, as well as improvement and stabilization of interpersonal connections. I support my clients in exploring the benefits of nurturing the wholesomeness of personhood in aspects of emotionality, physicality, spirituality and intellectuality, including examining perfectionism, ineffective behaviors, learning skills to manage difficult situations, tolerating discomfort, self-regulation, and self-care.

Life has a way of proving just how much is out of our control, but that doesn’t have to stop us from pursuing and achieving our goals. While navigating roadblocks, therapy can help you process feelings of uncertainty, loneliness and anxiety. I understand how difficult the journey to mental wellness can be and am honored to walk beside you. Ultimately, I believe in your ability to discern the right path and solutions. I believe it is my role to assist in uncovering those answers and support healing while offering a space to be vulnerable. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, infertility, and life transitions.
