My ideal client would be an adolescent who has endured some type of trauma or abuse. Their needs would include building resiliency and expanding their coping skills "toolbox." Their goal would ultimately be to find hope and healing, despite their adversities. They would want to be an active participant in their treatment, so that therapy could be as beneficial as possible. Having said that, any client who feels that they could benefit from my counseling services is more than welcome into my office!

I want you to imagine what it would be like to wake up and feel free of the mental anguish that comes from not knowing how to break the debilitating thinking and behavior patterns that govern your life.

My ideal client is open to the process of therapy and allows our work together to be collaborative. I have experience helping clients work through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, anger/frustrations, grief/loss, and much more. As someone who has sat in both chairs (the therapist's and the client's), I know how nerve-wracking therapy can feel when you first get started. If you are willing to push through some of those initial discomforts and engage in the process, I have no doubts that you will gain valuable insight and experience personal growth.

I enjoy working with children, teens, their families, and adults. I believe the therapeutic process is about building trusting relationships and providing the client with the support and tools to be able to navigate the twists and turns life tends to throw at us. Each client is unique and does not exist within their own bubble, so I work with each individual to find which skills and tools will work best for them to effectively manage their emotions.

I recognize that navigating stressors in our current times is more challenging than ever before. Increasing professional, work, family, and other external pressures make it more and more difficult to navigate daily routines and responsibilities. Recognizing past stressors and issues and how they are impacting/limiting us can be an important aspect of therapy that I strive to help people with. Learning tools and skills to help navigate stressors is also essential in therapy to help people feel their happiest and healthiest. Feeling less stressed and less overwhelmed; feeling better about oneself; and feeling happier and less anxious!

Are you grappling with the deep ache of loss after losing a loved one? Do you struggle with a nagging inner critic that tells you you're not good enough? Perhaps anxiety keeps you constantly worried, with racing thoughts or overwhelming fear. Maybe you're supporting a loved one through incarceration or mental illness. The emotional toll of these experiences can leave you feeling physically drained and emotionally isolated. You may wonder how to move forward when fear, shame and stigma feel overwhelming. If any of these resonate with you, you don't have to go it alone.
