If you are struggling with frequently feeling unheard, frustrated, resentful, exhausted, overwhelmed, burnt out, anxious or angry, you have likely been struggling for some time. Do you feel that your partner is either too needy or avoids everything and you get so frustrated? Are you tired of nagging pointlessly? Do these challenges cause you to lose sleep at night and a need to find relief? These scenarios are your emotions and logic not adding up, therefore causing discomfort which is so common. In working on big picture issues by changing small, manageable behaviors or thoughts you can find that inner peace you are trying to find.

Most of my clients are highly anxious and feel lost in a sea of intense emotions and rapid, unrelenting negative thoughts every single day. I help my clients move from a place of intense internal pain towards emotional stability, mood regulation, and rational thought. It is a normal response to avoid certain people, places, and events and to live as if you are in control. Avoidance is the hallmark of trauma, either in the past or recent experience. You are never the same person after you experience a traumatic event. Therapy is an opportunity to rediscover yourself by answering two major questions: Who am I? and Where do I fit?

I specialize in the mental health of adult women. Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed and exhausted by the painful thoughts running through their minds all day. Perhaps it is an unrelenting self critic who never lets you feel good enough. Or a list of anxious “what if’s” that keeps you awake at night, preparing for the worst. For some, it is scary, shameful thoughts that come out of nowhere. Others feel haunted by a frightening or confusing experience from the past. You feel stressed, depressed, or ashamed and you see the effect on your behavior, work, and relationships. To schedule, please EMAIL for quickest response.

'Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, courage is that quiet voice at the end of the day saying, 'I will try again tomorrow.' Dealing with life's challenges requires a great amount of strength and courage. Whether for you or your child, sometimes the most courageous act of all is asking for someone to help you during the difficult times. My hope is to be this person for you as your therapist. Collaborating together in a non-judgmental environment, I will work to provide you with the support, empathy, and tools needed to take those first steps towards change.

You have probably tried therapy before, but you're still hurting. You still feel stuck. I work differently than traditional therapists - using Evidence Based Psychotherapies - treatments proven to work by research. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) are based in brain science. We can retrain your brain. We can work to build new coping skills and a different approach to emotional pain. Research shows these therapies work to help people like you feel more calm and connected to their lives. You can feel better. You can live better!
