It’s hard to feel magical and awesome when your sparkle is being dulled by a world that actively works against you. The therapeutic space should be a place where you can discover and embrace your sparkly, magical self. When you are empowered to be unapologetically yourself, you are able to practice prioritizing your physical and emotional needs. When your needs are well met, you are so much closer to doing and being everything you ever dreamed.

"When life brings challenges that exceed your ability to cope, it might be the time to consider working with a competent, respectful, and understanding therapist. I believe in living life to the fullest extent possible, and sometimes that means peering into your past to understand how the solutions of yesterday transform to the problems of today. Whether your issue is substance abuse, unhealthy expression of anger, depression, anxiety, self esteem/body imagine or difficult relationships with others; counseling can be your first step towards a healthy way of living. Make that first step in your journey towards wellness.

Healing is a circular & cyclical journey with many paths, choices, & discoveries. We meet you where you are today, acknowledge that you are ever-changing, ever evolving. We know how hard it is to ask for help…to embrace, hold, and make space for change…we know how challenging it is to have a dissolution of self, or a version of yourself that no longer fits. Together, we uncover & compost outdated & stifling beliefs, unrealistic expectations or goals, let go of worries & fears, discover self-sabotage, burrow through behaviors & deeply hidden feelings & emotions that keep us stuck, fearful, unable to step into empowered selves.

If you are feeling lost or alone or find yourself struggling in your relationships, let's rebuild these connections—to your partner, your current self, and your desired self. With compassionate support, we'll explore your patterns, understand how your past experiences shape your present reality, and navigate setting boundaries for healthier relationships.

You matter, and your needs are important. Embracing change and seeking self-improvement are natural parts of life, and should be viewed as opportunities rather than burdens. While strained relationships, overwhelming emotions, feeling stuck in uncertainty and worry, or adjusting to life transitions may have brought you here, I trust that these can also become great initiations towards a more refined and ideal version of yourself, and the life you wish to live. If you feel ready to embark on a journey toward deeper self-understanding and experience more fulfilling relationships, I am here, and ready to walk side by side with you.

Accepting NEW Clients: You gaze in the mirror and the person looking back at you is not person you expected to see. You have given up practically everything for everybody else. You keep saying yes to others, and you constantly say no to yourself and your own needs. You feel you can’t do it anymore. You cry for help, but nobody bothers to listen. You feel like even those you used to be closest to do not understand what you are going through. You fell down into a dark hole, and no matter what you do, you can’t seem to climb out of it. You are not exactly sure when it happened or how it happened, but you somehow lost yourself.

There are many things that can interfere with a feeling of satisfaction or fulfillment in one's life.
