As a therapist who cares about her clients and their struggles, my goal is to help you achieve a fulfilling life while effectively handling any pain or suffering you may be experiencing. My method of therapy, called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, is an empirically supported approach that has been "astoundingly effective" with improving a wide range of problems, including depression, relationship issues, family conflict, poor self-worth, and stress at work.

I work with children, adolescents and adults, in varying degrees of distress. Many clients enter their therapeutic relationship with presenting problems which may include depression, anxiety, dysfunction in a primary relationship, or grief and loss. Others present addiction and codependency patterns that cause chronic difficulties with maintaining healthy relationships. Some suffer trauma that remains buried and entangled deep within. All are seeking a new path out of their suffering and into an enlightened experienced of themselves and the world. Together we will seek that fresh perspective, allowing old wounds to heal and creating space for a renewed vision of hope.

You're the person who is most critical of you. You want to take a break, but you're afraid of what will happen if you do. When you're resting, you think you should be working more. When you get stuck on a project, you feel like a failure. You want to feel appreciated, but you can't accept people's compliments. You are wrecked by people's disappointment in you. You feel like you are an impostor at your job, with your friends, maybe your family, too. You're driven by a steady level of anxiety and fear of failure. You could really use some clarity, peace, and quiet.

Addiction is a disease and it robs people of everything. We meet the client where ever they are in the grips of addiction. Deep down in every individual there is a need to find their sense of purpose. Everyone wants to attain self-actualization or to become who they believe they were meant to become. We believe in Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, which states individuals must first attain their physical, social, emotional and spiritual needs before reaching self-actualization, which brings a feeling of fulfillment, joy and peace. We provide a way out. Please give us a call to schedule an assessment.

Individual psychotherapy takes place in the bounds (or happens in the space) of an essential therapeutic relationship between therapist and patient. It’s in the safety of this collaborative and connected relationship that patients can be curious about themselves and discover healing solutions to the challenges they are facing. In my experience traditional talk therapy is not always effective in bringing about the lasting change that people are seeking. My practice is focused on utilizing both experiential and evidence-based therapies that help adults utilize inner, sometime hidden resources, and access pathways to change that can

My guiding philosophy in working with clients is that what is right with a person can enable them to overcome what is wrong with them. My years of working with patients in various treatment settings have only strengthened that view. Whether the issue is depression, trauma, painful personal loss or getting through a difficult crossroad in one's life, my basic approach is to help the person find their own pathways to healing. This is like a process of making "repairs," not of the body necessarily, but repairing one's perspective on life and finding the wherewithal to constructively move forward.

Do you feel overwhelmed or exhausted? Maybe it's an emotion, the crippling anxiety or the deblitating depression. Maybe it's a behavior, the constant numbing or never ending people-pleasing. Maybe it's a thought, "I'll never be enough", "'I'm too much", "I'm unlovable". What is it that's burdening you? Many of us want to change, to heal, to let go but how? These burdens often feel too overwhelming to address, especially in the chaos of life. My hope is to offer a safe space for us to compassionately lend attention to the pain you carry around every day. Through tending to our burdens we often uncover clarity, wholeness and peace.
