Trying to save a relationship before it's too late? Is your teenager struggling with depression, anxiety, or making healthy decisions? Want a counselor who helps you decide what to do next instead of telling you what you're doing wrong? Maybe you're just tired of your current situation but not quite sure what to do to change it? I don't dwell on your past so I can explain how your parents screwed you up. I help you develop a clear idea of what changes you want and how to make those changes happen. Think coaching, not counseling.

If you’re dealing with anxiety and depression, you might sometimes feel alone in your struggles. I’ve been there, and the truth is, so have many others! It’s my goal to provide a safe place for you to share what you’re experiencing, a place where you can express your feelings in an open environment without judgment. As a young college student facing anxiety, finding therapy was eye-opening for me. In fact, it led me to become a therapist myself: I wanted to help others see that they aren’t alone and that they have the ability to bring about real change in their lives.

I believe most people have the power to manage their own lives effectively given the right tools, encouragement, and help with the courage to make changes needed to move forward. The population I enjoy serving the most are children, teenagers, and their parents. I do not discriminate against other adults, of course. Children and teenagers are facing unimaginable difficulties including learning challenges (ADHD, Dyslexia), anger, behavioral difficulties, depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, and eating disorders just to name a few. It is my desire to assist your child, teenager, or yourself with the unique journey of life.

Are you a young professional who feels stuck in life, held back by anxiety, or lack of motivation because you don’t know where you want to go? Are you an athlete and know you could perform better if you were just more calm and in control of your emotions? Or maybe you have a child who is struggling with emotional regulation, flexibility and anxiety. I work with each of these populations to help the young professional thrive, the athlete maintain mental and emotional stability while performing and the child who’s anxious to calm fear and hyper vigilance.
