If you’re here searching through profiles, you might be going through a particularly hard time. Perhaps you are walking through a challenging life experience or you’re feeling unsettled or overwhelmed without an obvious reason. Sometimes we can name exactly what we need support with or want to work on; other times you might have trouble with anxiety symptoms, sleep, low energy, or feeling tearful without knowing why. In either case we deserve relief and to live with more overall ease. Healing isn't just about fixing problems, it's about creating a life that has meaning and joy!

Have you found yourself feeling stuck? Have you attempted to get out of your comfort zone, but ended up falling back on old habits? Do you ever feel held back or even controlled by difficult thoughts or emotions? Of course you have, in fact we all have struggled with being in this space and not knowing how to move forward. One of the most difficult parts of being in this situation is going through it alone without any tools. By exploring your experiences in a safe, compassionate and non-judgemental way, we can find out what is hooking you and empower you to unhook yourself.

Welcome! If you've landed here, you're probably someone that can identify with feeling stuck in life, battling stress, anxiety or depression, or wanting to strengthen relationships. I'm a laid back therapist whose goal is to provide a comfortable environment that is empathic, non-judgmental, and culturally sensitive. As a certified Brainspotting (BSP) therapist with extensive training, I can help you identify, process, and release emotional and physical sources of trauma, both big and small. BSP is an excellent tool for performance enhancement as well.

The cornerstone of any effective therapy experience is a good relationship. The relationship between therapist and client can provide an opportunity for working through difficult emotions and experiences, both past and present. I strive to develop a nonjudgmental partnership with each person I see in therapy, keeping in mind that every person and situation is unique. This allows us, together, to explore and understand the issues that bring you to therapy and how to begin to resolve them.

Concerned about your child? It's challenging when you hear worries from teachers, doctors, or your own instincts. Remember, seeking help isn't a failure; avoiding it can lead to real problems down the road. In therapy, discover relief and understand that you're not alone. Let's navigate this journey together.

At some time or another in life, everyone feels stuck, unable to overcome some problem despite his or her best efforts. Talking therapy can be invaluable in helping one gain new perspectives on oneself . By helping clients see themselves in new, broader, more realistic and more accepting ways, I help them gain the emotional and psychological energy and understanding to make needed changes. I believe I am most helpful to people by listening carefully to what they are saying and by helping them put into words what seems hard to say or even to understand right now.

No matter how hard you try to move forward, you feel like your taking one step back. You’re a high performer with perfectionism tendencies and always put on a smile, which helps you forget your pain. You may feel you will never be fully happy and never be able to fully enjoy life how others do, because of your many losses, attributing to your decreased self esteem. You may keep friends and family at a distance, to protect yourself from yet another inevitable loss. You may have stopped exercising and taking care of yourself the way you used to, since it takes too much work and you're just surviving at the end of another long day.

It's hard being a person. We all struggle to some extent in fundamental areas of human life-- relationships, identity, work, destructive behaviors, the meaning of life itself. Satisfying marriage/committed relationships are a specific challenge faced by many. I work in both individual and couples therapy. There are many ways to approach human problems, including: how family of origin influences personality; one's relationship to one's thoughts and feelings; self-defeating beliefs, both conscious and unconscious; self-defeating behavior. I value thoughtfulness and compassion, working together, and recognizing your goals and ideas.
