At Forest Path Therapy, we will walk with you on your journey and support you in your work. We believe that the most important factors in therapy are feeling like you are comfortable talking with your therapist and where you feel heard and understood. We start by learning who you are and what your life looks like. Instead of focusing just on what’s wrong, we pay attention to your whole life - what is working and what you would like to change. We believe therapy works best when we work together to examine the different sides of a problem together and provide support and space for you to decide how to move forward.

We’re born with innate needs to grow, connect, and find purpose. Our lives shapes how we go about getting these needs met. If we're successful in this, we often feel content and fulfilled. However, sometimes life intervenes in ways that prevent us from successfully getting these needs met and leaves us stuck and suffering. Often, we need help from a supportive professional to help us focus productively on our problems, ease our immediate distress with direction solutions, and help us develop the insights and skills needed for long term growth and fulfillment. I'll work closely with you to help you achieve your specific goals.

An exciting moment happens in therapy when a personal challenge is examined from a renewed perspective. In that moment, what once seemed difficult can take on new meaning. It has the potential to become a defining moment that inspires continued change, growth, and healing. Furthering this process is the potential realization that these ideas were already innate and just awaiting connection.

I work with couples, families, individuals, and children. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, disordered eating, and life transition issues. I believe that every person is equipped with their own unique skill sets that can help them in and out of the therapy room. These skills are often buried in the harmful stories we tell ourselves, but these stories can be edited and rewritten. I wholeheartedly believe in providing culturally sensitive and competent care to each and every client.

I love working with clients who are feeling stuck or sense something holding them back from their true selves, and am especially skilled in helping those who are dealing with anxiety, depression, chronic stress, identity exploration, life transitions, grief, trauma, and body image. I acknowledge how systemic injustice impacts wellbeing, particularly for women of color and the LGBTQIA+ community. Healing is about discovery, with evolving goals and sometimes contradictions as you align with your true self. Through a safe and collaborative therapeutic environment, I encourage you to explore and embrace your authenticity.

Exploring your needs in your relationship to yourself or with a partner can be challenging especially if you're not sure what those needs are or where to start. Maybe in the past these needs were never a priority, or you've had to change and prioritize someone else’s needs over your own. Either way, it can be scary to start looking at what you need to feel seen and understood. Whether that be in starting a new chapter in life, with your partner, or just finding out more about yourself and who you are, it’s time to start prioritizing who you truly want to be and how you want your relationships in life to be.
