Why do I feel like this? What should I do? The challenges we face can sometimes make it difficult to see a way out. I strongly believe that there is a way out. You don’t have to just endure it; you can be amidst challenges and find strength and purpose. There is transformative power in self-discovery. By embracing and integrating all aspects of ourselves we can live a life in alignment with what we value.

I have worked in the field of mental health for over 2 decades, both as a clinician and in various leadership roles. One of my greatest passions is reducing the stigma and barriers that inhibit people from reaching out for help when they need it. The truth is, we all need help at some point- all of us. My role is to listen without judgement and provide support, tools and insights so that my clients can process their experience fully and move forward in life. I utilize a blend of cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness to improve coping skills leading to greater life satisfaction.

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 Together, we uncover & compost outdated & stifling beliefs, unrealistic expectations or goals, let go of worries & fears, discover self-sabotage, burrow through behaviors & deeply hidden feelings &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.

The goal is progress not perfection. When we compare ourselves to the ideal future we desire, we often feel disappointed about where we are and the amount of progress we have made. When we compare where we are to where we have been we have the opportunity to celebrate our progress and use that energy to take the next step. I am passionate about meeting people where they are at, and helping them discover their first step and to keep momentum towards their goals.

My focus as a therapist is to help individuals who have experienced trauma, anxieties, and depression. Through the therapeutic relationship, I work with people to increase their personal discovery and gain access to the expression of authentic emotion. I believe we are innately designed to survive, and sometimes our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are negatively enacted. My framework identifies that each person is doing the best they can in the moment and it is the therapist’s job to investigate additional moments of resilience, persistence, and self-compassion toward healing.

Thank you for taking this step toward bettering yourself. Deciding to begin therapy can be a daunting first step towards healing, but it is a necessary one. If you are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relational issues, or an inability to deal with change, then therapy might be right for you. I work with clients to develop ways of living that return your life back to you. Change does not happen alone. Healing does not have to happen alone. Reach out to me if you feel that you are ready to take another step in your journey of self-discovery and healing.

I want to see the world as you see it, witness what you have done to survive, and help you remove the obstacles blocking your path toward growth and freedom. Who you are and how you behave are shaped by your experiences, thoughts, and beliefs. Although we can have gratitude for what has helped you survive, it may no longer serve you. I am a growth-focused and compassionate professional with hands-on experience in delivering practical and emotional support to a wide range of clients. I use an integrative approach to treat the whole person instead of symptoms attributed to multiple diagnoses.

Sometimes life makes it feel like there are limited options, and our feelings can be overwhelming. However, in the face of pain and suffering, we have the power to choose how to engage with these hardships. There is freedom to choose our responses, and moving forward with committed action is empowering. I would be happy to collaborate with you in the therapeutic process, to explore feelings, learning coping skills, and maintain healthy responses. In life we may feel content being still, making lateral moves, or at times pivoting. As we navigate your views of self, thriving, living we can face carpe diem, pluck the day.

We all arrive with a story. Stories shaped by our pasts and with hopes for the future. Our stories contain relationships, triumphs, failures. If you are here, perhaps you are hoping for something different in your next chapter. As your therapist, I will listen to your story nonjudgmentally, holding space for the pains and celebrating the joys. Using supportive and challenging reflection, we will explore obstacles that keep you stuck in a negative story. We will practice authoring change in the safety of the space we’ve created. Like any good story, there will be laughter and tears, and there will be a stronger character at the end.
