Most of the times, to build a life worth living means to face and overcome struggles, life changes, losses, challenges, to name some. Many instances like these set the tone for depression, anxieties, personality issues, stress, etc. We get stuck in the journey of life and cannot achieve our goals of having a better life because it is difficult to deal with problems, we lack coping skills, self-esteem, etc. Therapy is a way to discover how we can become "unstuck", learn new skills, discover what we need to change or accept, or just talk with somebody who is non-judgmental in a confidential setting.

I am not currently accepting new clients at this time. I have gone through multiple experiences in my life and know what it's like to need a little help along the way.

I enjoy assisting my clients in reaching their life goals using various methods, coping skills, and therapeutic approaches. I am person-centered and desire to alleviate distress and optimize wellness. My goal is to help clients feel empowered to make positive changes in their lives.

The ideal client is motivated to continue to work with their inner child to become grounded in the present moment. They may have anxiety, mood disorders, or personality disorders, or they may not be sure what is underlying their experience, which I can help identify as well.

They are willing to trust me with their feelings and express them, whether that is verbally, through the expressive arts, or both.

EMAIL preferred! As a therapist for more than a decade, I like to take a collaborative approach to relieve distress, improve well being, and develop new insights.

I work with teens 16+ & adults who experience maladjustment issues, depression, anxiety, grief, transitions throughout the lifespan, relationship, parenting, and career related issues. I look forward to working with you on your personal journey toward change.

I love working with people who have come to therapy because they really want to change something about their lives that isn't working. Being in therapy takes a certain amount of courage, and those who show up openly to the experience and bravely start working are satisfying to work with. I'm also interested in those who can commit to having a real relationship in therapy. Based on my own personal and clinical experience, the development of a warm, empathic, safe relationship is key to therapeutic success.
