Our interpretation of events can be inaccurate and can hurt us. You will have no regrets tomorrow by giving yourself a chance to live today. I believe Life is always worth living. Whether you are hurting, stressed out, overwhelmed or feeling stuck emotionally because of bad relationships, dysfunctional family systems, school, work, past traumatic experiences, there is hope. Come and share your thoughts and feelings, clarify them and put things in perspective. Unearth maladaptive behavior patterns, develop coping skills, make decisions about change and get the best out of life.

Therapy can give you a safe place and the courage to share and reveal your story; to go there, not alone, but with someone who can help you understand what is happening. With expanded knowledge of yourself, you have the strength to act on intentional and personally meaningful choices.
I am a catalyst for your understanding of yourself, alone and in relation to those important to you.

Counseling is a second career for me. My dedication to this work began after witnessing a close friend struggle to find appropriate mental health care for their child for many years. Feeling strongly that I wanted to give back to others struggling with managing mental health disorders, I decided to leave a for-profit position for more meaningful work in counseling and psychology. I feel very much at home as a therapist.

I love helping my clients identify where they are feeling stuck and learn what their triggers are so they can feel more in control of their lives. I encourage them to define for themselves what brought them to therapy, what they want from it, and then how it helped them change over the course of time. It is a unique relationship and support, offering perspectives that are not otherwise available. I emphasize that it takes courage, not weakness, to face difficult issues.

“Treat people as if they were, what they should be, and you will help them become what they are capable of becoming.” ~Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe. At times, life does not go the way we expect. Guidance and support are often needed in working through situations. I see my work with individuals as a relationship that helps them build, strengthen, and navigate through various issues in life.
