Seeking help for your mental health is the most important decision that you will make in your life with long-lasting results. It is my vision that everyone should live free of judgment, distress, discomfort, and free of emotional turmoil. As a society, we have become conditioned to sit in our lives, to accept our circumstances, however unpleasant they are. Therapy can help overcome those circumstances. Together this can be achieved. I will stick by you and help you live the life you want. I use motivational interviewing techniques, CBT methods and my therapeutic modality is based on a psychodynamic /psychoanalytic foundation.

I strongly believe that individuals have the tools and strengths within themselves to conquer and move through any challenge. At times, we may need gentle guidance as well as a safe, welcoming environment in order to uncover those strengths and end unhealthy thinking patterns that leave us stuck. My approach is nurturing yet direct in moments where one needs to feel empowered. I look at therapy as a collaboration where you are the expert and I am here to offer an alternative perspective. Clients have mentioned they feel understood and that core themes have been revealed while working with me.

Family is the core of our identity & it's where we often face our greatest challenges. Ranging from lack of connection, support, understanding, being understood, struggling to communicate our thoughts, feelings, wants/needs. Lack of respect & value. Lets admit it , for some of us our families are unhealthy. unloyal. broken. "toxic". Whether there actions are intentional or unintentional, they cause deep animosity & we don't know how to fix it. So you say forget um' accepting that they aren't going to change, that this is what your life is going to be. So you found a gaurded way to deal with this percieved reality & you stand on it.

Have you been experiencing feelings of sadness, loneliness or despair? Are you having difficulty with your focus, concentration, or even completing tasks you've always done with little to no effort? Is it causing issues in your daily life, family or career? Stop! Take a long, deep breath and exhale! You are not alone. Life happens and sometimes it has a way of applying pressure in places we may never suspect. Things you once knew or relied upon to cope may no longer be helping. I would love to help you when you get stuck! Seeking counseling or therapy can be a scary process in itself but you do not have to go it alone.
