For me, there is no ideal client. To some extent, everyone is on a spectrum of depression and anxiety, and I seek to work with clients who need assistance becoming oriented toward improvement. I have personal and professional experience and understand how difficult it is to find someone patient enough to grow alongside a client through the therapeutic process. I want to work alongside you to help you live a happy, meaningful life with these conditions.

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? Even positive changes can be anxiety provoking. When changes are negative, like a life altering car accident, or the death of someone you love, it may feel like your world is upside down or like you are in a state of shock. As hard as it might be, these reactions are all normal. It helps to discuss changes with an objective professional, who can help you look at your new situation and help you to think clearly about decisions you might need to make.

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.

Making a choice to begin therapy does not mean something is "wrong" with you. It means you have decided you want to understand yourself. It means you want to prosper, to have positive self-regard, working relationships, health and wellness and ways to express yourself creatively. The promise of a good therapy is a good life.

My ideal client is someone who feels overwhelmed and trapped by the pressures of everyday life—whether it’s the demands of work, family obligations, or societal expectations. Often, they carry the weight of past trauma that amplifies these feelings and makes change feel daunting. Despite this, there’s a deep desire for transformation and a longing for a more fulfilling life. They must feel heard and validated as they work through family conflicts and improve their communication skills. They seek practical strategies to cope with their challenges while addressing the impact of their past experiences.
