Whether you are experiencing a change or wanting to make one, the therapy process can help you through it. Finding a therapist that fits your needs is important. I work hard to meet clients "where they are" in making change, and approach therapy in a non-judgmental, transparent, collaborative, authentic, open, warm, and direct manner. I prioritize open dialogue about our therapy process to ensure you are getting what you want from our work together, and invite client feedback to hold me accountable to providing good clinical service. I am an active therapist, and see my role as guiding clients through an often unfamiliar process.

There are times when we all require additional support; someone to accompany you in a time of difficulty or just to improve your sense of well-being. I believe therapy is a collaborative journey between therapist and client, exploring the client's inner world, developing insight, and simply deepening self-understanding using a compassionate and strength-based approach.

Welcome! It takes energy and courage to search for a therapist who is a good fit for you. Therapy can help you feel more connected, further develop your purpose, reduce your self-doubt, and develop more effective ways of coping. At times it can be helpful to develop insight and awareness into thought patterns, stuck emotions, or relational patterns from your past, so you can work through them toward acceptance *and* action toward change. Insight alone isn't always enough, so it's important for us to work toward helping you translate that insight into the change & growth you hope for. I strive to create a non-judgmental, safe space.

Does everyone depend on you to make decisions and solve their problems? Even when you are going through a rough time do your friends and family still ask you to do things for them because they are so used to you always being available? Is it easier to make what you want secondary? Does keeping the peace come at the expense of you not having a happy and fulfilling life? Do you lose your identity and not know who you are when you are in a relationship?

Taking the first step by deciding to pursue therapy can be difficult. Living with untreated anxiety or depression can be even worse. Most of our lives we are taught to protect ourselves by keeping vulnerabilities hidden and keeping people at a safe distance. Therapy encourages just the opposite: to reveal your innermost thoughts and feelings to a stranger- your therapist. This process can be unsettling. However, by articulating these emotions, putting words to the oftentimes debilitating feelings, life becomes more manageable and healing begins.
