Finding the ideal therapist is often a daunting task. I work with individuals who have felt misplaced, misrepresented, and misunderstood in most places by "creating space for the misfits." Clients seeking a genuine, nonjudgmental space to release and rehabilitate while growing into their greatest selves have found their place to land, and it is here.

Are you going through a transition in your life? Feeling stuck and find it difficult to move forward? Many times, when things do not go as planned or the way we hope, it can feel stressful, confusing and sometimes overwhelming. I specialize in helping individuals, particularly young adults, teenagers, and school-age children, in navigating these challenging transitions (e.g., struggling in school, failure to progress in college, experiencing anxiety or depression, etc.). I work with people who need more than just “talking” with a therapist. My approach to therapy is unique.

I believe we are all works in progress. Seeking therapy is a brave choice to help better carry your load and further you along your journey. I visualize therapy as a collaborative journey we take together. In our first appointments, I will get to know the roads you have taken and what has guided you along your way. We will identify what is working and what is not, then work together to establish your goals for treatment. Growth can be uncomfortable at times and you may be challenged in the process. You can expect me to be aware of this and to approach it directly and with sensitivity.

Are you feeling frustrated, lonely, overwhelmed, or depressed? Does it seem like there must be more to life than what you are getting? Sometimes we just feel stuck in our lives. Old emotional wounds or patterns keep nagging at us, keeping us from feeling free to live authentically. Relationships can be one the most rewarding or distressing parts of our lives. Changing the way we relate to ourselves and to others is key. Therapy is a transformative process that can help us address our concerns about ourselves and others.
