You took the first step in looking for a therapist. That takes courage and a leap of faith! Finding help and connection can be difficult, especially when we feel stuck and alone. I work with teens and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. I also specialize in helping people who have experienced trauma. I am trained to use EMDR therapy to process traumatic events and memories.

Compassion and supportive listening is often missing when going through difficult circumstances. People sometimes feel alone and don't know where to turn. I consider it a privilege to offer a safe place for those facing adversity to explore their strengths and areas of needed growth. Understanding that exploring ones thoughts and feelings can bring a sense of vulnerability. I strive to create a safe, judgement free, space where people can develop a deeper understanding of self and create the life they desire. Commitment by the client to the "work," with a motivation for change is crucial for successful therapeutic intervention.

Therapy is like physical training for the mind. You don’t walk into the gym for the first time and expect to bench press 300 pounds. Or, run a 20K marathon having never put on a pair of running shoes. Reaching your goals requires practice, motivation, and willingness to take on new challenges. Having someone to walk beside you, provide encouragement, help build confidence, show compassion, and offer support increases your ability to succeed.

You are not broken, you are deeply hurt. It is easy to find yourself in unhelpful patterns & ways of being. This might be due to your nervous system being flooded with anger, fear & despair. In a creative way to survive, you have found self-protection strategies. Unfortunately, these strategies are likely no longer helpful. Part of our work together will be unraveling this muscle memory to reveal how you can live a life that is true to you. YOU become the place of self-awareness, peaceful acceptance & intentional action. As a certified trauma professional & art therapist, I integrate these tools into our therapeutic work.

Life is often really tough. My goal is to provide a safe space for my clients to share their story, their struggles, their victories and their goals so they can feel less alone and also have a therapeutic partner to sort through what they'd like to understand better about themselves in order to take new steps towards wellness and growth. Being understood by a compassionate person is strengthening, and so is having a therapeutic partner to help you think about what you're thinking about and what you'd rather be focusing on.

The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a fact of life that everyone, at some point or another, faces struggles. Sometimes, in this society, it is deemed more acceptable to suffer in silence than to reach out and ask for the help you need. I believe that every experience you have had, every triumph, every setback, is important and gives meaning to who you are; your whole identity. I believe that every person has the answers they need, and sometimes it takes extra work to find them. I believe that a therapeutic space, where a person can be heard and valued as a person of infinite worth, is incredibly healing.

All of us will have times in our lives when we meet challenges that are difficult to deal with alone. During these times, therapists can provide the support and guidance that we need to identify our strengths and resources and learn new ways to deal with our problems.
