Do you struggle to form deep and meaningful relationships in your life? Are you struggling with issues that are keeping you stuck in life? I believe the key to our wholeness is to be aligned within. Our pain and losses can hinder us from moving forward and connecting emotionally within and with others. We may become numb, lose zest, feel inauthentic, hopeless, and dissatisfied with life.

Our pain and losses can hinder us from moving forward and connecting emotionally within and with others. We may become numb, lose zest, feel inauthentic, hopeless, and dissatisfied with life.
Whenever we face change, obstacles, loss, and/or new chapters in life, it's natural to encounter a whirlwind of mixed emotions—grief, anxiety, excitement, & fear. Our internal experiences can become so loud, and unsettling at times, that we can miss out on what is happening right in front of us. Together we can find flexibility & freedom when faced with these challenging life experiences. In addition to helping people cope with anxiety, grief, & life transitions, I work with women who are experiencing body image challenges/disordered eating & reproductive health challenges. Women deserve support when navigating these complex issues.

Are you ready to start living the life you have only ever imagined? It really is possible! I am here to help you facilitate and foster change and to reclaim the "you" that's been yearning to break free and soar. What are my superpowers? Empathy, Compassion, and Intuition. My tool chest of preferred modalities is very eclectic. While I incorporate the psychodynamic approach, along with CBT, ACT, Solution-focused, Person-centered, and Existential philosophies, Mindfulness is at the crux of my therapeutic leanings with an overall holistic approach to mind, body, and soul wellness.

When OCD, depression, and anxiety get in the way of living fully, I help clients reclaim their lives and get unstuck. Clients that work with me are reflective, curious, and intentional about personal growth. Sometimes, clients aren't sure how to name the challenges they're experiencing, and they just have a hunch that life doesn't have to be as hard as it is now. That's okay! You don't need a diagnosis or the perfect description of your symptoms to start counseling. I understand that disorders show up in diverse ways, and I take time to listen to my clients so that treatment can be responsive to their unique needs.

I often use DBT, EMDR and Trauma Focused CBT to address the unique set of circumstances, needs and strengths that each person brings to therapy.
Childhood and adolescence can present a unique set of challenges for many young people. Having worked in several settings, including inpatient hospitalization and residential treatment, as well as private and public schools, I have many years of experience in helping children and teens to find their voice, overcome obstacles and flourish into healthy, strong adults. I believe that a warm, compassionate, nonjudgmental relationship combined with evidenced based practices can provide a strong foundation for change and healing.

I provide services for clients who I believe have the capacity to resolve their own problems with my assistance. I offer a professional relationship with my clients to assist them in exploring and resolving difficult issues. I believe that as people become more accepting of themselves, they are more capable of finding happiness and contentment in their lives. Self-awareness and self-acceptance are goals that sometimes take a long time to achieve. While some clients may need only a few counseling sessions to feel complete, others may require months. I offer a caring, empathic space to explore, heal and to try new ways of being.

I have been practicing for over 15 years and see patients with a wide range of concerns and struggles. I specialize in treating eating disorders, trauma, and related issues in adults and teens. I understand that it can be difficult to seek help; therefore, I highly value establishing safety and trust in the therapeutic relationship, and allowing each patient a unique path to health and healing. I also work to collaborate with a treatment team, such as physicians and dietitians, when physical or medical issues need to be addressed.
