I am a supportive encourager and my therapy space is a safe and judgement free place for you to explore your goals and take the necessary steps to achieve the life you want.
As I think about how change occurs for a person, I am struck by the recognition that life is full of opportunities for change, for individual growth. Sometimes these opportunities are not clear to the person because the trauma, personal or relational difficulty, fear, depression, or anxiety being experienced can be so overwhelming that one's ability to take action is clouded. In my work, I have become very mindful of the resiliency of the human spirit. I have witnessed this resiliency in times of trauma, pain, and loss. My goal is to provide you with a safe space to address your concerns.

Life is hard and at times it can feel overwhelming and difficult to find answers. Therapy should be a non-judgmental space to explore challenges and possibilities and also to work on healing hurts, setting goals, and moving from a place of merely surviving to a place of independently thriving.

Is a satisfying life, a life worth living, difficult for you to envision and/or create? Life is often very hard, especially when struggling with anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship problems and other psychological concerns. It is not uncommon, even for very strong people, to feel overwhelmed and unable to cope or incapable of making desired changes. At these times, a skilled and caring counselor may help you to find your way to a better life. Note: I am an individual therapist and do not see couples or do family therapy.

It is my hope that we can create a therapeutic relationship while working together to meet goals and strengthen personal development.
Everyone has their own unique paths in life. These paths may lead to unexpected turns, different destinations, or hit a few bumps along the way creating feelings of uncertainty. Such experiences and feelings of anxiety and uncertainty may lead us into uncharted territory, challenging us to overcome. Change is hard, and change can vastly impact our social, emotional, behavioral, and physiological responses. I strive to create an atmosphere of safety, acceptance, openness, trust, and respect.

I believe in order to make changes in our lives, we must first examine the impact that past relationships, experiences, and environments have had on us. The therapeutic process allows us to examine and process how things that have happened to us can impact who we are as individuals and integrate the past into who we are in the present. The therapeutic relationship can help us to identify sources of resilience and strength that can help us to overcome past negative experiences. By connecting our past with who we are in the present, we can start the process of change.

I recognize the relationship between physical health and emotional well-being.
I enjoy working with a variety of clients. My training in marriage and family therapy has helped me to see the importance of knowing the context and history of a person's life. It is important to know each person's unique history and community. I believe that this self-knowledge help us find answers to our questions and new solutions. It is important to believe that our history does not determine our destiny.

While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
