If your family is like mine, your once peaceful and easy home life is full of tension, yelling, and tears. Your loving child isolates themselves and no longer talks to you. You want nothing more than just endure the emotional storms and navigate daily school, work, and social struggles. I've been there and I'm here to help.

***ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS*** ***I am also credentialed to do video therapy*** For more info check out my website and media interviews. I do not believe there is an ideal client. In my years of work I have encountered many people with many reasons for why they are the way they are. What I know is that if you are open to the process, we can figure it out. Most of my clients are nervous when they come for the first time, and rightfully so. It's anxiety provoking to talk to a stranger about your "stuff." Despite that hesitancy they overwhelmingly experience relief and begin to see a path forward after we start our work together.

Feelings of worry, high levels of stress and sadness can sometimes be overwhelming. Let me tell you, you are not alone. Many people have a hard time sharing their thoughts and feelings but this can be strengthened with practice. A therapeutic environment is a place of openness, safety, and growth. Therapy is the most important work you will do for yourself and the ones you love.

We are all here to evolve into more conscious, responsible individuals. Mental health issues arise when we are out of alignment with what is happening within and around us. As we embrace and adjust to our life situations, working through our disappointments and broken expectations, our equilibrium is restored. We feel stronger and more capable to accept what is in front of us to do, with new peace, joy, and wisdom.

Would you like someone to talk to - completely without judgement or bias? To have a safe space for guidance? To gain a different perspective? Everyone goes through challenging situations in life, and while you may have successfully navigated through other difficulties you've faced, there's nothing wrong with seeking out extra support when you need it. In fact, therapy is ideal for people who have enough self-awareness to realize they need a helping hand, and that is something to be noted. Here, you are taking responsibility by accepting what you are experiencing and making a commitment to change something about it.
