Everyone else thinks you've got it all together, but inside you feel like you have to play a role to fit into your own life. You have to be perfect, maybe rehearse what you'll say ahead of time, and then tell yourself that no one cares about you since they can't get close enough to know the real you. You know how to appear confident, but deep inside, there is this voice telling you that no one sees you. You crave the feelings of safety and being fully known. You want to feel connected to the people you love. Instead, you feel desperate to maintain control and feel stuck in painful relationships.

My practice is centered around helping people reconnect with their inherent goodness. So many of us walk around with a deep sense of unworthiness, a feeling that there's something wrong, finding ourselves in conflict with others, lacking purpose, and disconnected from our true selves. This is uncomfortable, painful even. In response to this discomfort, we develop all sorts of means to cope: drugs and alcohol, work, money, sex, video games, or TV. Or, we try to fix what’s “wrong” through perfectionism, achievement, therapy, or spirituality. We try to avoid or fix our insecurities out of fear, allowing them to grow.

The decision to begin (or deepen) therapy is a big one. I imagine you’ve attempted to manage a lot of things as best as you possibly could and that led you here. I’m so happy you’re here. I help clients navigate life when there’s been a few (or many) wrong turns and bumps in the road. I am skilled at working with all parts of a client when they have a history of trauma (knowingly or not). This often takes the form of eating disorders, anxiety, emotional overwhelm or dysregulation, dissociation, self-esteem issues, relationship issues, or substance use.

I am a compassionate and dedicated person with a passion for helping people navigate life’s challenges and discover the path to positive emotions and self-love. I love working with individuals, guiding them on a journey to work through anxiety and self-doubt when setting boundaries, difficulties managing anger and heavy emotions during conflict, shutting down and avoiding difficult conversations and struggles to believe positive things about themselves. I want to provide a supportive and empathetic environment where clients can explore their stories and build resilience. I want you to be able to show up as your most authentic self.

Clients come with stress, confusion, challenge, frustration, and pain. Also, courage, wisdom, intent, and innate capability. Whether unfamiliar or well-known, new or longstanding, these experiences often signal growth. In psychotherapy, activating this growth involves vulnerability, learning and healing. With a humanistic and experiential approach, I offer nurturing, pluralistic psychotherapy to adults. Personality, relationship, mood, mind-body are special areas of experience and interest. Joining my clients wherever they are in life, offering a warm guiding light, is a privilege.
