We’ve all experienced times when we just feel stuck, going through the motions of life rather than actually living our best lives. Anxiety, depression, addiction, low self-esteem, past trauma or many other issues can impact your ability to live a full and happy life and have healthy family and other relationships. Therapy is a powerful medium that can provide many tools and strategies to help you navigate all of these challenges and many more. I enjoy working with child/adolescent, adult, and geriatric populations using a variety of therapeutic techniques including CBT, DBT, 12-Step, Trauma-Informed, and Family Systems Therapy.

You can't hate or shame yourself into the changes you want to see in your life, and I'll help you learn to love yourself (or at least be a little kinder to yourself) to become the version of yourself you want to be. Carl Rogers, an inspirational therapist, said, "The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change." Healing from trauma, depression, anxiety, or any mental health issue is a journey of self-acceptance, and you deserve support along that journey.
