I'm here to join you on this journey to discover healing and build a balanced life.

Why does it feel like you’re living for everyone but yourself? Your family relies on you for everything from dinner plans to school projects. You take on extra assignments at work even when your plate is overflowing. Friends ask you for favors, and you can’t say no. You wish there was a way to create time for yourself, but you hate the idea of letting anyone down. So you keep pushing through. And no matter how hard you work, there’s still a voice in your head telling you it’s not enough. Fun is nonexistent, and you can’t remember the last time you did anything for yourself. You can’t go on like this, but change feels hopeless.

As human beings we have to always be ready to grow. Whether at work, or within our relationships and families, living an empowered life without support is difficult, and living a well balanced life is even more so. Dual trained in organizational and clinical psychology, I help my clients gain the skills they need to live purposeful and fulfilled lives. Whether amidst life transitions, in relationship conflict, struggling with mental illness, just working toward goals or overcoming character deficits, I help families, couples and individuals make effective decisions, live fulfilling lives, and thrive within tremendous opportunities.

I am a true believer that “My response is my responsibility”. In seeking out assistance via mental health services, you have taken the first steps in reclaiming control of your life. We cannot control life’s “growing pains” however the way we respond to these challenges steer the course of your future. The therapeutic relationship formed will provide objective feedback to assist with transitions, healing and exploration of internal/external paradigms that have shaped your way of thinking.

We may be unaware of it, but we cannot help but be shaped by our relationships and experiences, especially from our childhood, which means that current patterns of behavior and emotions will originate from our past. Working in collaboration we can explore your current difficulties, personal beliefs and values, find ways to help you cope, and uncover the connection between your past and present experience.

The first step to beginning therapy is to want to make a change. You won't be successful without that initial desire. It could be the tiniest desire, but if it's there, I can work with that! You may not know what your goals are. You may not know what your needs are. You just know that you want to make a change, and I'll be there to support those efforts!
