Sometimes we need help creating a safe space where we can be open and honest while we make sense of an event we want to resolve or our lives overall. Sometimes we need help to heal and someone to simply hear our story. A story filled with our experiences in the world and shaped by perceptions that are human-naturally distorted and flawed. People begin therapy for various reasons, yet wanting change is universal and desiring authenticity is the heart of this path. It is not about being happy, better, fixed. You are not broken. Healing reveals your authenticity and allows you to become... it feels like peace, bravery and truth.

There are times when we are faced with events in life that are beyond our ability to fully recover on our own. Together we can explore the roadblocks that prevent the healing process.
Our experiences from the moment we were born shape our perceptions about life and self. Over time we become conditioned to exist in our environment. This conditioning is usually grounded in fear. That fear is usually grounded in distorted perceptions. Lasting change comes from the conscious challenging of those old distorted perceptions of ourselves and the world we live in and finding truth about who we really are.

I offer convenient evening and weekend appointments. We are all capable of making changes. Setting small goals can lead to larger life improvements. I have had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life and have seen amazing growth and change over my 17+ years of practicing as a clinical social worker. If we do nothing to make change, life stays the same, with the same problems. It takes courage to look at ourselves and work on the things that drag us down. Together we'll build on your strengths to help meet your goals.

I recognize that it takes a great deal of vulnerability and courage to embark on the therapeutic journey. My approach is trauma-informed and incorporates art therapy, mindfulness, cognitive behavioral, solution-focused and strengths-based models. I find that art therapy is a helpful and unique way for clients to approach difficulties and express themselves. I also believe that clients don’t exist in a vacuum. I explore aspects of the various systems within which clients exist. My goal as a therapist is to provide a creative and accepting space for clients to be truly seen and heard.
