First we will work toward a stronger sense of self-awareness and a better understanding of how past behavior and habits influence the present.
For most people, we often find ourselves stuck in patterns, overwhelmed with circumstances and life can be unfair at the worst times. Life has a lot of metaphors for journeys because of how much they shape and twist around us, we can still get lost on the path forward. I believe that by building awareness in our behaviors, identity, emotions, social connections and past, will give you the best road map to really understand what is best for you. By acknowledging each client's unique background and identity (personality, goals, passions) I can create a strong and tailored treatment plan for their possible symptoms and concerns.

My specialty is working with folks whose anxieties or insecurities hold them back from creating the life that they want and with folks whose emotions lead to out-of-control feeling behaviors, such as impulsive shopping, eating, or chaotic behavior in relationships.
Are you looking for a therapist who is warm and caring, but also actively supports you in making necessary changes? I show up to sessions ready to listen and hold intense emotions. Through our conversations we will identify your hopes, fears, and stuck points. We will then work together to move you towards the life that you dream of. We will co-create homework, so that you can take what we discuss and practice it in your day-to-day life. Your homework might be reaching out to an old friend, or breathing through an urge to yell at your children, or taking that first step on a project you’ve been dreaming about for years.

I believe that if you change the way you think, you can change your behavior.
Deciding to come to therapy can be very scary. Sharing your most intimate thoughts with someone can be even more frightening. This is why I make sure that I create a very safe, caring, positive, and secure place where you can feel comfortable and know that you are with someone who truly cares about your well-being.

In addition to helping you gain insight, I utilize evidence based approaches Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Gottman Method Relationship Counseling to help you have the change you desire.
Life can give us experiences of fun and excitement. At the same time, there are periods where day-to-day life becomes overwhelming. When these waves of overwhelm arrive, we can experience difficulty identifying ways to deal with our feelings. We may struggle in naming what we are feeling and subsequently experience a sense of impossibility and helplessness. Through my work with individuals and couples, I developed a repertoire of interventions to guide my clients who are struggling with relational issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, and emotional dysregulation.

My practice includes addressing life challenges such as anxiety, depression, and relationship barriers through the use of psychodynamic theory and cognitive behavioral therapy.
I continually work to create an environment that feels safe, warm, and supportive for each person. My goals as a therapist are to establish connection, to be adaptable and creative enough that differences are respected and more alternatives explored, and to identify strengths that can be used as a foundation for coping. As a part of the process, goals are set to create balance between work, life, and self. Ultimately, an ideal client would recognize the need for more or a need for something to change in their situation and be brave enough to take the first major step and call.

Generally, they want to feel more at ease, content and confident. I also work with new parents who may be struggling with symptoms of post postpartum anxiety or depression.
