In life there are many awesome and beautiful things to see and do, but there are also many challenges and pain in life. As I have worked with youth and families for over 15 years, I have come to understand that deep down everyone wants to thrive through being loved and to love others, but that often hurt and pain from our younger days place us in a position of just surviving. My hope is to help youth, families and couples to heal from these wounds to move toward thriving.

We all have unproductive thoughts and feelings from time to time, and the thought of therapy can feel overwhelming. The key is to talk to someone who can listen and help guide you to positive solutions. As a psychologist, I strive to form supportive trusting relationships with my clients that are nonjudgmental.

Life can be like a ship out at sea. It can be a beautiful and peaceful experience, but it can also be overwhelming, scary, and filled with unknowns. Maybe you’re feeling lost or in the middle of a storm, and need some help finding your way. I want to be the person to help you. I once was told that as the client, you are the captain, and as the counselor, I am the navigator; I have the tools and maps that can help you and guide you but you make the decisions about where we go and what we focus on in the counseling space.

If something doesn't feel quite right in your life, in how you're handling important relationships, how you're coping with feelings, or how you're progressing with goals; if you feel there are parts of yourself you don't fully understand, and you ready for this to change, then we'll be a good match. I believe psychotherapy requires working together to build understanding and accomplish change. For this, a strong patient-therapist relationship is essential; I am active, involved, responsive, open and communicative. Patients feel they know me, and they experience me as committed to knowing them.

Waitlist for new clients
I enjoy working with teens and adults in developing a healthy sexual self. In sessions, I focus on sexuality, identity, communication, and self-confidence. We will talk about how previous events may be impacting current life and evaluate strengths that can assist you in making meaningful changes. I am mindful that people come to therapy with different needs and abilities, so I incorporate relevant modalities and use talk as well as visuals to make concepts more accessible. My hope is that people leave therapy feeling that they have more complete relationships with themselves and others.

"Fear lives in the head. And courage lives in the heart. The job is to get from one to the other" - Louis Penny. It is inevitable that we will be wounded during the journey of life. Many of those wounds generally heal on their own. However some wounds cut deeper. They are unable to heal themselves and leave scars causing broken relationships, anxiety, addiction, insecurity, fear, and pain. Facing these wounds can be frightening and overwhelming, especially when facing them alone. Together we find the courage and strength to face and heal these wounds.

In today's culture, we are often so focused on dealing with the many stressors of everyday life and on taking care of others, we find ourselves feeling overwhelmed, depressed, anxious and depleted. Making an appointment for therapy is the first step towards taking care of yourself and feeling better. In my experience, lasting change can begin to take place as you share with a therapist who will listen compassionately, join with you to understand your experience, and guide you to find and use the tools to make postive changes and create the life you want.

My ideal client would put as much effort as they are ready to in that moment, day, or week to continue prioritizing their mental health needs. Over time, I hope to support each person in identifying what is helpful vs. harmful to their overall well-being. I look forward to supporting individuals navigating life transitions, women's issues, those in need of validation and perspective-taking, struggling with anxiety, searching for answers and healing from traumatic experiences, feeling "stuck," and individuals hoping for support with executive functioning challenges, sensory challenges, or complex social interactions.

I feel privileged to walk beside clients as they deal with struggles such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, addiction, OCD, relationship challenges, grief and loss, spirituality, and more. Working with my clients has taught me that recovery involves recognizing and utilizing one's strengths to make healthy changes and decisions in their lives. This is why I see my role as a counselor is to support and empower my clients as they identify and work towards their recovery goals.
