Spending the last ten years of my life coaching high school and college athletes, I feel a special connection with adolescents and young adults. With that said, I employ a warm approach that has allowed me to connect with individuals of all ages. While our practice focus is grief and trauma work, I work with individuals who do not always feel that is their reason for seeking therapy.

An ideal client, is an unideal person. If humans were perfect they wouldn't need therapy. I work with individuals, couples & families with a range of issues. I help people address unskilled thoughts, emotions &/or behaviors, helping them let go of things that are no longer serving them. If an individual desires to grow by developing their sense of awareness, while developing skills to help them lower their stress levels & address their issues, I can help. I work with all mental health conditions, or stress related issues. No issue is too small or too big for therapy. I am here to support others in their goals & personal growth.

Your anxious thoughts have become a raging storm inside your head. They plague you to the point of feeling alone in a crowded room. The mental chaos is all you can hear, even when someone is talking to you. You try negotiating, pleading, and even demanding the thoughts to “stop already!” You fight not to think about your problems, but unfortunately, the thoughts persist no matter what you do. You feel broken and defeated. Your sense of security has become incredibly fragile, and you’ve lost hope for the future. You’re desperate to clear your mind of these anxious thoughts but don’t know how. If only there were another way.
