The 'ideal client' for counseling is someone who is sick & tired of being sick & tired. They are ready for change & peace of mind and ready to see their part in problems. Through counseling and consultation, they can acquire skills to think, feel and behave differently in situations and relationships for better outcomes. Self respect, self worth and esteem get better. Clients notice they feel lighter. There is an overall increased sense of well being. They are increasingly able to do the next right thing while avoiding falling down the rabbit hole of old patterns which initially brought them into counseling.

Hello and thank you for reading my profile. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). I use a systemic approach to emphasize factors such as relationships and communication patterns. By seeking therapy you are starting the journey to a healthier happier you. You are taking the steps necessary to find your voice and start living to your life's potential. It is my belief that your greatest change comes from within. My goal is to help you make that change, and start getting fulfillment from your life and your relationships.

I am a best-selling author and American Mental Health Counseling Association Diplomate and Clinical Mental Health Specialist in Child and Adolescent Counseling, one of just 20 clinicians in the US with that dual certification. I have been in practice for almost 20 years, and blog for Psychology Today and The Huffington Post. I help clients with ADHD, anxiety, pain, and grief recognize and overcome challenges and succeed. I help victims and survivors of gaslighting and abuse from a narcissist. I help clients reach their potential at work, home, and in social relationships.

When we feel overwhelmed, depressed, or stagnant it can be difficult to reach out. When we feel lost in our relationships, our careers, or question our purpose in life, we may not feel satisfied or content. If we think our loved ones don't understand us, or we’re afraid to open up to them, we may become isolated and lonely. If we catch ourselves in addictive cycles or patterns, we feel defeated because nothing we’ve tried seems to be working. Maybe we battle with anxiety and depression; unable to get out of bed. If only we could learn a different way. If this resonates with you, there is a way through.

I provide counseling that is goal-focused, relationship-oriented, and with an introspective edge. I try to create a warm and comfortable environment both inside my office and while addressing personal issues with clients. My approach usually brings a sense of hope and encourages learning of problem-management skills. Anyone can experience hard times, but how we manage these transitions in life is of value. My initial visit typically includes a brief assessment of the presenting concern to better understand the client's stressors, problems, strengths and resources. I try to establish an action plan to guide our future sessions.

Sometimes we become better at seeming to be well, rather than actually being well. Living our fullest lives comes when we are aligned mind, body, and soul. This life of wellness is a delicate balance that can be impacted by life and other circumstances leaving us looking for a change. Therapy doesn't have to be a last resort when we're struggling and feel out of options; perhaps it is just the next step to wellness. Working with a therapist can be helpful in finding and maintaining your balance, to reconnect with your authentic self.

You may be wondering if you really need a therapist, like why can't you just keep doing it yourself? But you know you feel depressed, anxious...sometimes you feel like you can't handle one more thing going wrong. Friends and family are great (or not!), but there's nothing like having someone completely independent that you can confide in without judgment. My clients know they can trust me, they feel safe. I'm genuine, and I believe everyone has goodness and worthiness underneath your depression, anxiety, relationship conflict, or addiction and the related problems.

If you're here, it's likely because you're facing some obstacles that are hindering your progress towards achieving your goals and experiencing a sense of fulfillment in your daily life. These obstacles could manifest as symptoms of depression, such as a lack of motivation, feeling adrift, or a sense of disconnection. You may be experiencing anxiety, struggling with concerns about not measuring up, feeling overwhelmed by the prospect of making change, or feeling inadequate in some way. You might also be experiencing difficulties in your relationships, uncertain about your position in your network or feeling frequently distressed.

My ideal client seeks deep healing and personal transformation. They struggle with trauma, anxiety, or a sense of disconnection, feeling that traditional therapy hasn't fully addressed their needs. They seek a holistic approach, blending psychospiritual and somatic therapies, to heal both mind and body. Their goal is to find inner peace, emotional resilience, and a profound connection to their true self. They desire meaningful change, driven by a yearning for authentic living and holistic well-being.

Life isn’t always easy. Sometimes, even the strongest people amongst us need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s more challenging problems. Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or any other issue, you should know that there is hope for a better tomorrow. Mark Twain said, "The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why". My goal is to empower and enhance your life and help you find your "why".

Life can be tough, but together, we can work to make it easier. I have extensive experience with work stress, ADHD and parents of ADHD children , anxiety, and perfectionism. My empathetic approach blends multiple evidence-based practices with practical solutions developed over 2 decades. I believe in a flexible approach. Each journey is unique and I customize therapy to the individual to obtain the best results. Soon to be studying mindfulness at Oxford University's Mindfulness Cognitive Based Therapy MA program, I'm committed to enhancing results for my clients through lifelong rigorous learning.

I work from an integrative, person-centered approach, and believe that the client is the expert on their life. I help you develop a toolbox of skills, positive affirmations, and action steps that you can use outside of therapy. My style is collaborative, straightforward, solution-focused, informal, and affirming.
