Many present-day struggles have their origin in responses to traumatic experiences in the past. While these responses deserve great respect for having kept us alive (physically and/or emotionally), moving from surviving to thriving asks us to recognize that the past is not present. Working together, we can strengthen your ability to stay and feel with what is, rather than continue to respond to the trauma that was. We can gently lay those old trauma responses to rest and find new, healing ways of responding to the here and now.

I believe that all of us have the power to make choices that will improve our lives immediately. I encourage clients to focus on what that have control of, rather than what they do not. I encourage and practice a cooperative approach to marriage, parenting and life. I work with individuals, couples, families, and kids of all ages and circumstances. I have extensive experience in helping with school related issues and advocating for families regarding these concerns. I also enjoy working with athletes and helping them improve their "mental game.

I believe that our most challenging times can also be our greatest opportunity for change and growth. With the right perspective and proper non – judgmental support, difficult times can assist in the transition to build a stronger, more resilient you. I base all of what I do on compassion and acceptance.

The poet Rumi wrote, “These pains you feel are messengers. Listen to them.” My role as your therapist is to assist you in identifying, understanding, and communicating the feelings you are feeling as messengers telling us a story about how your present day experiences and feelings are in conversation with those formed before you had agency, awareness, and choice. I strive to create a safe environment where, together, we can explore the chapters of your life in order to give you the insight necessary to implement change, alleviate suffering, and grow as a thinking and feeling person in a complicated world.

I work with people to help them reach their full potential. I can do this with telehealth or in person. My job is to help remove those barriers keeping you from becoming who you really are.

My ideal client wants to be an active player in his or her own treatment. They want a therapist who will not only be there for them, but who will also give them the tools they need to proactively change their lives for the better. I'm here to change lives, not just be a sounding board. All clients are deserving of respect and unconditional positive regard, but there comes a time when you are going to take action, or stay stuck in the muck that brought you to therapy to begin with. I'm going to meet you where you're at, and I'm also going to push you to make that positive change in your life. Staying stuck isn't an option with me!

Making the decision to begin therapy can be difficult. There are a number of reasons that can hold someone from moving forward. That said, if you feel ready to begin a therapeutic relationship, you have taken one step towards healing. As a therapist, I work in collaboration with clients in a goal-oriented way to explore, understand, and help manage various challenges. For example, a major life change or day-to-day stress. I provide an environment that fosters a safe space for open communication to promote growth and wellbeing.

Are you ready to move through life making decisions in alignment with your deepest values and live more peacefully and authentically? So many of us have been through traumatic life experiences that cause us to mal-adapt simply to survive. However, over time, our old survival mechanisms begin to hurt more than help. We can forget or not know how to set healthy boundaries in our relationships. We can neglect our self and overextend ourselves emotionally, mentally, and physically. Therapy can help you uncover your self and remove any barriers to living life intentionally!
