Therapy is a place where you can be open and honest about yourself and have no judgment about who you are. We all need to be willing to ask for help when needed. I feel therapy can help a variety of people and I look to work with clients on issues such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and trauma. I also look to help clients who deal with a variety of other challenges such as issues at home or challenges in school.

It feels hopeless. It is intimidating. It may even feel insurmountable. It is the pain of life, and it is real. But, what if I told you it is not hopeless? That you hold the key to making things better. Seeking help can feel equally daunting, but it is the first step of breaking through the negative cloud of despair. I meet my clients where they are in their life’s journey and I consider myself a “fellow traveler.” I join them it that journey to help them gain insight, to provide perspective, and to collaborate and determine the best course of treatment to regain the direction of their destination.

Everyone wants to know that they matter and that they have worth. Sometimes life gets in the way and interferes with our ability to tap into our sense of belonging and being accepted as we are. Helping clients navigate through life issues and challenges and healing the deeper wounds that affect our day to day functioning is a passion of mine. What does it mean to be "healthy and whole"? Discovering this and working toward healing and thriving where you are at is a rewarding experience!

My ideal client is someone who is ready to engage in a collaborative relationship to address areas of their life that are proving difficult. This may include difficulty coping with trauma, anxiety, depression, and emotional regulation. The client is looking for someone to process through their experiences, thoughts, and/or feelings in a safe, non-judgmental environment in order to better understand themselves and how to cope with uncomfortable thoughts, feelings, and events. This client wants a relaxed counselor who will also communicate with them honestly and collaboratively to support them where they are at now.

My mission is to provide individuals, couples, and groups with high quality therapy that is evidence based, client centered, and trauma informed. I practice from elements of CBT, DBT, ACT, and Object relations. My approach to therapy is always unique to each and every client, as each person has a different lived experience that must be accounted for and tailored to fit. I do not believe in one size fits all therapy. As a clinician, I help treat the root causes of the problems in peoples’ lives. The objective is always to put out the fire, not just fan the smoke.

Accepting New Clients! Do you find yourself carrying an emotional weight that seems to get heavier each day without really understanding what it is, or why? The tremendous emotional impact of the environmental and societal events over the last couple of years has been staggering. The rollercoaster of emotions that come with the grief of losing what was seen as normal and dependable, can make you feel like your world has been turned upside down.

Are you feeling alone, anxious, or depressed? Are you frustrated and struggling with relationships, caregiving responsibilities, or parenting? Would it feel better to communicate in healthier ways and respond with intention rather than “react-then-regret”? Maybe you’re facing a difficult transition, whether leaving home for the first time, starting a family, navigating midlife changes and responsibilities, or grieving losses. Coping with everyday life can feel complicated even when we’re at our best; other times it can be overwhelming, confusing, and even scary.
