I have helped people overcome struggles with: Anger, Anxiety, Depression, Divorce recovery, Grief, Life transition issues, Post-traumatic stress, Relationship issues, and Self-esteem.
Seeking counseling is a courageous first step to confront pain and distress in your life with the intention of bringing healing, resolution and growth. If you are dealing with difficulties in you life and/or you aspire to emotionally grow I would like to help. I will provide a caring, safe, and comfortable environment where you can feel heard and understood. Together you and I will identify your needs as well as your strengths and work toward reaching your personal goals. These goals begin with understanding your unique perspective and then working to untangle the behaviors, emotions or thoughts that bring distress, disharmony, or pain.

I have worked closely with clients who had anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, self-harm, anger, grief/loss, ADHD, gender dysphoria, relationship issues, and trauma.
I am here to provide a safe and empathetic space for you to feel comfortable "opening up," and to support you as you make things in your life better. I enjoy listening and learning about each person's unique realities and perspectives. I am honored to be allowed to share in your thoughts, ideas, and issues. I hope to be a companion who can help you through your difficult times and celebrate in your best moments. Together, we can work through behaviors that may no longer be serving you in your present day life that may have had a purpose in the past.

I believe the relationship is central to a positive therapeutic experience.
Experiences of grief and loss occur throughout the life span.The response to these experiences is unique and personal. I believe everyone has a story which is important to tell. As a therapist I work to create a trusting environment in which to tell that story. It is in the understanding of the story one can discover solutions to problems, acceptance of the past and hope for the future.

I help my clients find peace of mind, gain insight, and be more present and grounded in their life to attain their goals and life purpose. I offer a therapeutic environment where clients learn to relax, feel safe, and then peel off the layers of a problem to become aware of the answers each client seeks. My specialties include stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship issues, women's issues, academic problems, and chronic/health concerns. Together, we will examine how your thoughts, feelings, behaviors/actions, bodily sensations, and internal images affect the way you respond to others and within yourself (e.g., inner voice).

Relationship Issues Therapists
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
