I love being with people through the complexities of grief, witnessing how many people evolve an on-going relationship with their person, navigate both the dark and light moments, and find a way towards an ongoing life.
After someone you love dies the world changes. You may even wonder how you will continue to live on carrying your grief that can be so heavy. Finding space to make sense of complex feelings such as love, regret, anger and sadness can be a difficult task. Grieving can feel so painful and so lonely. It can also feel messy or too quiet. Grief is a deeply personal experience that is also meant to be shared, so that you may find a path forward on your healing journey.

I believe that therapy is most effective when the relationship with the therapist is a collaborative one.
"Art can permeate the very deepest part of us, where no words exist" -Eileen Miller. I believe in the creative process as a powerful tool for facilitating self-expression, self-discovery, and self-fulfillment by integrating one's physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional health. I incorporate a variety of modalities, such as Art Therapy (no prior art training necessary), Play Therapy, and Sand Tray Therapy, into sessions while honoring each client's individual strengths and needs. My experience working with those emotionally distressed and my training in trauma theory supports my belief in every person's innate capacity for healing

I have fifteen years of experience in counseling practice. My practice has focused on couples and individuals, combat veterans and readjustment to civilian life, relationship conflict, trauma and abuse, parenting issues and families with substance abuse, incarceration and reentry, anxiety, depression, anger management and coping with life changes. My goal is to assist people with making practical changes in their lives. Making therapeutic progress can alleviate suffering and increase satisfaction with life but the process can be a painful journey especially when family of origin or significant others are involved.

My specialty is stress management, which can take many forms- turning the volume down on anxiety, tending to a relationship on the rocks, setting boundaries at a demanding job, or finding individualized ways to cope with diagnoses of ADHD or OCD.
I am a modern, relevant therapist. I understand that self-care, a fad diet, a worksheet, or deep breathing is not going to fix a culture that is making us feel burned out and inadequate. I believe that you are the expert on your life and you’re probably doing a great job with what you’ve got to work with. Let’s build on the things that are realistic and relevant to you and see if there’s unnecessary stuff that’s holding you back. I have a casual, conversational style and a pragmatic way of working that includes a whole grab bag of ideas and approaches I've picked up over the past decade in community and private practice settings.

I deeply believe effective therapy depends on building a warm, compassionate, down-to-earth relationship.
Do you feel ready for more growth? Maybe you’re dealing with painful unresolved feelings, or navigating a significant life transition. Perhaps you've been in therapy before, but now want to go deeper. If you're like many of my clients, you function well on the outside but still feel unhappy or unfulfilled inside. Even if you can’t put your finger on it, you sense it’s time to make some changes. You have multifaceted emotions you want to work through, and you want a trusted, experienced professional who can help you move through the impasse you’re experiencing so you can fulfill your life potential.

My approach to therapy is rooted in the belief that who you are makes sense. Even when your emotions, behaviors, or relationships are extremely different than what you want them to be. I believe that our feelings carry wisdom, our behaviors serve a function, and our current situation becomes clear in the context of our whole story. With this stance of curiosity and acceptance, I can help you understand the parts of your life that are causing distress and move toward the life you want to be living. I am an ideal fit for clients who want to make a change in their behavior while understanding the way those behaviors have functioned.
