Collaborating with adolescents, adults, and families to work toward improving mental health and general wellbeing is of great importance. While transparency is encouraged, building a strong therapeutic relationship takes time and is crucial for successful treatment. Regarding barriers, it is essential to meet individuals where they're at to avoid setting unrealistic expectations.

The intention of therapy is always a more productive, less stressful and peaceful life. Treatment strategies are person-centered and warm-hearted, tailored to each person's unique personality, development, needs and goals.

I believe that when a person experiences trauma or life stressors, it can be quite common for life to feel as though it is unraveling. I take pride in bringing healing to people who have been through trauma/stressful experiences. My job is to help my clients who include adults, children and families to find healthy perceptions of themselves, different coping skills and a new found strength within themselves to take on the world and thrive. I know no single approach is the right one for every individual so I am trained in a range of modalities.

Waitlist for new clients
Your smile is different – once natural, it is now wavering, feeling more like a lie with each passing day. You’ve had to keep it plastered on your face for as long as you can remember: to look happy, to keep the peace, to not be noticed as a problem. The thought of standing out now as someone who needs help, who isn’t okay all the time, is terrifying. Yet you don’t know how long you can keep this up. Everything in your life feels out of control, and anxiety and isolation weigh heavy on your heart. You’re wondering why, after so many years of successfully keeping your emotions under wraps, they now seem to be running your life.

Wondering why you can't seem to maintain satisfying relationships? Do you oftentimes struggle with identity asking, 'who am I or who should I be?' You have become an expert caretaker specializing in denying your true self and placing other's needs before your own. You have difficulty trusting others with your whole heart and live in fear of not getting your own emotional needs met. Outwardly you appear secure, you have learned to be a doer and a perfectionist, but inwardly you feel fragile and abandoned. Others have accused you of being needy and sensitive which further dismisses who you are. Sounding familiar?

Many clients have experienced unaddressed trauma that bleeds into their current lived experience. My ideal client is anyone who recognizes that they are in need of help with navigating the daily challenges of life including the areas of college/career, academic, relationships, social and emotional concerns. Ideally, when clients come to me they recognize that they can't do it alone and are seeking assistance from a professional who is skilled in bringing insight and awareness to clients in a way that is palatable and can be digested by the client. They have moved past the pre-contemplative stage of change and into taking action.

Everyone experiences challenging times or life changes at one point or another. I believe one of the bravest things one can do is begin to understand their own story. I provide a safe, supportive, non-judgmental environment for my clients to explore personal issues, dilemmas, and concerns in a professional setting. My therapy approach is tailored to each client’s needs and preferences, and I pull from several evidence-based modalities. I am compassionate and supportive but willing to be direct in my guidance.
