You're so tired of feeling anxious and down. It's crept into your thoughts, your body, and your relationships. To be honest, you're so worn out that you aren't able to savor the people or the things you once loved. The routine of “pushing through” has become exhausting. Even worse, those around you don’t understand that you are not “just sad” or “just a worrier.” When you open up about your pain, you are met with platitudes like “relax,” or “your life is so great.” These comments imply that this is “all in your head.” You’ve begun to think the same yourself. You know something needs to change, but you don’t know where to turn.

I have over 30 years of experience treating anxiety, anger, stress, trauma, and sadness and helping improve relationships and enjoyment of life.

If you are ready to change destructive patterns, getting relief is easier than you might expect. I participate actively in the process by offering feedback designed to increase insight into what drives troubling behavior, conflictual relationships, and symptoms.

“We don’t have to do all of it alone. We were never meant to.” - Brene Brown. Sometimes life gets hard, and there are times we are unable to verbalize what we are going through. Other times, we just want to avoid and not feel it all— something that we are not meant to do but we all commonly do.

Managing mental health can of course be difficult. However, having a relationship with those who struggle with mental health can be equally overwhelming. Concerns such as managing one’s independence, caregiver burnout, or desires to distance or end the relationship can often present. Often, I work with individuals to find ways to manage, whether it be choosing to create distance in the relationship or implementing skills and tools to manage it, I help individuals feel more fulfilled in their relationships and as a result, their lives. I find I particularly enjoy working with clients who have family members or partners with BPD.
