In 30 years of private practice, I have learned some basic truths about people: each person is a unique individual, is attempting to do the best they can with their circumstances and abilities, seeks recognition and validation of their worth, desires a sense of belonging and purpose, and has an inner source of empowerment and health that can be accessed. I am an actively engaged, compassionate therapist, addressing the difficulties of adult life: anxiety, relationships, marriage, loneliness, anger, depression, addictions, not fulfilling one's dreams, coping with illness, loss and death, struggles with creativity and spirituality.

I have been a privately practicing therapist for over ten years, and I hold a Ph.D. in Counseling. I have worked with a diverse array of clientele; ranging from adults, to children and teens, and with individuals and couples. The clients I have worked with have coped with a wide range of mental and emotional obstacles. My goal is always to come alongside my clients and facilitate their coping, healing, and growing, in the manner that works best for them. I always remind my clients that they are the ones doing the heaviest lifting in the room, and that I am an excellent spotter.

Finding a therapist that resonates with you can be a daunting process. Especially, when you're trying to find your place in the world and juggle all that life throws at you. It shouldn't feel this hard, right? Maybe you feel like no one "gets you," and you second guess yourself in your relationships, your work, or even in your own decision-making. You want to carve your own path and feel grounded within yourself, but there's so much noise, it's tough to drown it all out. I hear you and I see you. This world is constantly telling you who you SHOULD be, but I want to help you remember who you truly are and that you are enough.

You hold yourself to a higher standard yet, lately seem to have lost focus and struggle to maintain your motivation. You find yourself starting to believe the small voice in the back of your head stating that you are not good enough. You go to lengths to take great care of others, however, do not extend the same love and care to yourself. You put on a happy face and pretend that all is well, however, often can feel very much alone and anxious. You may feel consumed by: sadness, fear, anger or hopelessness; and even the simplest of tasks seems overwhelming. You long to get back to your old self and find joy and meaning in life.

As life begins and we transition through the phases of adolescence into adulthood, our minds begin to develop perspectives, personality characteristics, or a personally derived set of rules governing how we live or who we are as individuals. In relation, the mind develops cognitive scars that require nurturing based on your past experiences or observed experiences. These manifestations of life circumstances can then transition into symptoms related to Anxiety, Depression, Personality Disorders, Trauma Disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorders, Interpersonal Struggles and so much more.

This constant anxiety, followed by crippling bouts of depression, is preventing you from living your life. Even on good days, your negative self-talk beats you into a sleepy paralysis. Everyone can be hard on themselves, but your mind has become downright violent. It’s exhausting trying to anticipate when it will strike next. You can’t trust your own thoughts. It’s obvious that your painful past isn’t going away on its own. It takes all you’ve got to get through the day. And most days it takes more than that. Stuck in a vicious cycle with no end in sight, you know you can’t handle this alone anymore. But what choice do you have?

Despite your best attempts to take good care of yourself and be happy, do you find yourself in the same destructive behaviors and same relationship problems over and over again? Know that you can change. Feeling stuck, anxious and unhappy is your way of telling yourself to pay attention to what is going on inside of you. Many times you may not even be aware of what you are feeling or why you are feeling it. By learning to tune into, tolerate and understand your feelings, you can equip yourself to make new choices for yourself that feel right to you.

I have come to recognize that much like plants and other organic, living things, our minds require consistent care and nurturing. Like plants, we show signs of distress due to changes in environment, unmet needs, or trauma. While plants may outwardly show distress with shriveled leaves, human signs of distress often start internally. They affect our thought process, level of functioning and quality of life. However, comparable to plants, humans show a great propensity towards resilience. It is shown that with a little guidance and care we can learn to adapt and even thrive in our environment.
