We're living through such stressful times, it can be hard to function our best. As our coping skills are stretched thin, struggles once successfully dealt with may become stronger than we can manage. Relationship issues can intensify as tending to our own discomfort takes more energy, leaving less to offer our partner. On top of all this, navigating the mental health world to find a therapist who "gets you" is a chore unto itself! I'm happy to help, if you feel we might be a good fit. I use a combination of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and somatic work (TRM) to help empower, heal, and bring you more fully back to yourself.

Life often feels messy and complicated and we can get stuck in the same thought patterns, interpersonal conflicts, or ways of seeing the world that keep us from living as our best selves. My goal is to support clients in managing their stressors and building skills to show up in the world that feels authentic to them. As a therapist, I strive to create a safe space for clients to do the work of finding their own voice, processing through their struggles and issues, identifying and using coping skills, and showing up in relationships in an authentic way.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by changes in your life, like moving to a new place, becoming a parent for the first time, or accepting a new job? Change sometimes comes without warning, and your world feels upside down. For example you've had a serious life altering car accident, a beloved parent dies, or your spouse tells you they want a divorce. Whether changes seem positive or negative, you might still feel anxious or worried, or even in a state of shock. It can help to discuss life changes with an objective professional, who can help you look at your situation and evaluate it, to gain some certainty about your direction.
