To accomplish this, I utilize a variety of evidence-based practices to help my clients develop new ways of understanding their inner worlds and to change their relationships with themselves and others.

You may notice yourself feeling underappreciated, alone, or unimportant in your relationship; like your relationship could change if there was better communication. If you and your partner are feeling stuck or misaligned, therapy can help you prioritize, support, and join each other through journey of life. I help couples understand their patterns of stuckness and awaken the security of their partnership. I believe security and emotions, both real and valid, are the driving force toward healing and that each partner holds an important piece of the relationship puzzle.

I am a direct, interactive, and insightful psychotherapist who has a thoughtful, patient, and collaborative approach to therapy. My clinical practice focuses on sexual and reproductive health as well as relationship issues in individuals and couples.

Therapy can help explore patterns of relating, both past and present, and find alternative ways of expressing these thoughts and feelings so that one may achieve increased life satisfaction.

When people ask me for help dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, career issues or relationships, they want more than insight; they're hoping for behavioral change.

Transitioning to parenthood and managing emotions postpartum can be difficult. As a perinatal therapist, my goal is to provide a safe space where you can process these major life changes. In therapy, I use a trauma informed approach that is strengths based. I help clients explore how different life experiences (i.e., childhood, trauma, family dynamics, life stressors) have impacted their views of themselves and internal dialogue. I partner with my clients to reframe their negative narratives, learn coping skills, and instill more positive beliefs about themselves through Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy.

The step to enter into counseling is a courageous one, it encompasses your willingness to connect, to be vulnerable, and to seek hope in healing. I see counseling as a way for clients to make change, to liberate one’s self from patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving that may not be serving you effectively. These patterns are often imposed by society, family, and ones' own culture and/or gender. Counseling is a space to help navigate all that comes with life’s changes. In practice, I specialize in anxiety, depression, grief/loss, OCD, infertility, postpartum, relationships, job change/loss, and other adjustment related stressors.

We all have the capacity to heal. From difficult relationships, anxiety, depression, chronic stress and/or pain, parenting challenges, infertility, traumatic life experiences, or other sources of distress. You have the capacity to heal. To live your most extraordinary life each and every day. To live wholly. People usually enter therapy because something important isn't working in their lives. Though healing work sometimes feels lonely, particularly when you first begin, you do not have to begin this journey alone. With the right guidance, the work can quickly become empowering, energizing, even enlightening, as you begin to have access to your whole self once again.

I deeply value the relationship between therapist and client and believe that therapy is a collaborative process.
