Are you a mom suffering from postpartum depression or anxiety? Was your birth experience not at all what you expected and now you're struggling to handle how you're feeling? I can help you process, feel seen, and feel better. I believe that everyone has the ability to heal with the right help and you deserve to feel happy. I believe that the relationship that one has with their therapist is the most important part in guiding others to a place where they want to be, where they can function more effectively, and most importantly, thrive.

I whole-heartedly believe in each individual's unique ability to find their true Self, the person they were meant to become. From a centered existence one is better able to make choices that promote health, supportive relationships, and passionate pursuits. At times, one may find what once was easy has become more difficult. One's emotional and perceptual landscape may become unfamiliar, what one allows others to see may not fit with how one really feels, one's path may become less certain. Therapy provides the acceptance and space with which to find oneself, perhaps for the first time.

As an “introduction” to who I am, what I believe in, and what I “bring to the table” during our therapy sessions, please allow me to use a quote from one of my favorite books written by David Klow, LMFT, “You Are Not Crazy”. His words are exactly what I want you, my Client, to hear from me and for you to believe. You are not crazy. Really, you are not. Others are experiencing nearly the same things as you, yet they just don’t talk about it. They often don’t even have the words to describe what they are experiencing; but if they could, you may find that it is a lot like what you are going through.

Sometimes, the first step to seeking help is the hardest. Fortunately, you won’t have to experience this journey alone! I am happy to be accepting new clients for Family, Individual, and Couples Therapy. Our work will be collaborative, as I want to ensure each client experiences understanding, compassion, empathy, and respect. My passion is in helping clients rebuild and re-establish trust and connectedness in their relationships with others, as well as within themselves. I also tend to use humor in sessions. Therapy can be difficult, but there's room for a little laughter along the way.

Is there an anxious voice in your head that sometimes speaks at full volume? Do you feel alone, uncertain, or "less than"? Or maybe you feel like you just can't stay on top of your life. You procrastinate and only get things done by self-medicating with panic? You may have habits you don't feel good about... you overeat, shop too much, spend countless hours online or in front of tv, or get too much or too little sleep. You might feel stuck, frustrated, or like something is missing. Or maybe you are a parent who feels worried and unsure about how to help a child or adolescent who is struggling?

Hello! Looking for a therapist can be a daunting process, and searching for one means that you’re one step closer to working with the therapist who is right for you. I feel honored that I may be an option as a therapist to support you. Therapy can be helpful for navigating the ups and downs of life, and processing internal thoughts in an unbiased atmosphere. It’s normal to have emotions, and to explore them without judgement. I have experience working with clients of all ages, and understand how challenges can impact each person differently depending on their own experiences and circumstances.

Becoming a new mother can often leave you with feelings of sadness, being overwhelmed, or even hopelessness. It takes a community to support new moms and all that comes with it. The transition to motherhood is demanding and my passion is working together with moms to navigate the challenges across the perinatal spectrum. I help moms embrace their resilience and pursue the walk of motherhood from an empowered state of being.

Therapy is not education or advice-giving. People are unique, so elements of therapy are tailored because healing is different for everybody. My treatment approach is an atmosphere were you can speak your mind safely, to someone who listens, listens intelligently, and cares is important. I believe a successful counseling experience depends on the therapists ability to understand and respect the unique concerns, background, and context of each patient. I am committed to achieving such an understanding in every counseling relationship.

Every person is a unique individual and it is important to consider all of the life factors affecting how each client experiences and thinks about life. Such factors may include family life, work, social environment, social supports, past experiences, physical needs (rest, diet & nutrition, exercise, etc.), spiritual beliefs, and mental well-being. I use methods that best meet each client's individual needs, and encourage my clients to work collaboratively throughout the counseling process.
