Congratulations. You are obviously closer to creating change and healing in your life. So often our depression, anxiety, and relationship problems are correlated to underlying shame and emotional wounds that have become entrenched in our beliefs, attitudes, behaviors, and personality styles. As you well know, this healing process can frequently be arduous and frustrating, but I look forward to working with you to develop a meaningful therapy relationship and experience.

Embracing change can sometimes seem like a daunting task. Even when our life experiences have a negative impact on us and those we care about, breaking away from familiarity can be challenging. Often, we find ourselves unsure of where to start. Seeking counseling can be the first step towards creating a life that aligns with our desires and aspirations.

A person cannot be truly understood without a consideration of various aspects of their social, familial, temporal, spiritual, economic, and physical environment. It is through this compassionate lens that my work begins. If you are someone who has suffered through trauma, or is struggling with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, anger, or going through a big life change, I would love to help. I specialize in working with men's issues, with professionals & athletes who struggle with performance pressures, & with those with attachment trauma. I use EMDR to target traumatic memories and help you process then in a safe way.

I am a licensed clinical social worker who specializes in working with children and adolescents. I also work with adults. While post-graduate training, and teaching, have increased my skills, what makes me a good therapist are the beliefs I hold dear. I believe in people and their ability to heal and thrive. I believe that the connection I have with my clients not only allows them to open up to me, but others as well. Most importantly, I believe that working with others is a tremendous responsibility and a sacred trust. It is an honor I never take lightly.

Have you experienced a loss? Do you anticipate a loss and it seems like it's consuming you? Do feel like your loss is not taken seriously because it is not the loss of a person? Well, there are many causes of grief. Grief and loss are a universal experience; however, each person’s grief journey is unique. Whether you have experienced a perinatal loss, the loss of a loved one, relationship, pet, health, job or dream, you need and deserve support. Sometimes we need more than our immediate support system can give us.

Choosing to go to therapy can be a difficult decision, yet it can be a catalyst for positive change. I firmly believe seeing a therapist can provide people with the resources and support to manage and cope with life's struggles, increase their understanding of themselves, and gain tools to feel more empowered and heal. I work with people across the lifespan (5+) and see clients experiencing a wide array of concerns, such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and low self-esteem.

Are you struggling with feeling disconnected to yourself and others? Does it feel impossible to find the strength or motivation to get through your days? If you find yourself answering yes to these questions, therapy may be a fit for you. I take a relational approach to therapy in which I prioritize the alliance formed between myself and my clients. I believe the therapy space is one that facilitates growth, healing, and connection to oneself and others. I desire to know my clients deeply and communicate that understanding to them in a way that brings about insight.

I believe that you are the expert of your life! My job is to be curious and to help you gain more understanding of yourself. A good therapist doesn't claim to have all the answers for why you are the way you are although I may have some ideas that I will share. When it comes to getting answers & more understanding, we will form hypotheses together and you will come to your own conclusions. I facilitate and guide that process! I'm here to share my knowledge to help you make decisions that are authentic, rational, and well-explored.
