I believe that what we are dealing with is not who we are. Challenges with substance use, mental health symptoms, relationships, or whatever else you are facing do not define you. Learning how to see beyond these things to the full and complete person you are can be both difficult and healing. I believe that my role as a therapist is to help clients start that process in a supportive and non-judgmental way. I want you to feel that you are the driving force in your therapy experience, not judgement or stigmas.

My goal as a therapist is to support clients in becoming the best version of themselves. I specialize in working with adolescents, families and couples. I recognize that our environments can greatly influence our mood. I have several years of experience working with adolescents and their families and have an appreciation of working with both adolescents individually to hear and support them as well as working with parent(s) as well to help bridge the gap and improve communication and relationships.

Is life overwhelming right now? Are you looking for support in overcoming difficult life situations, managing low self-esteem, or navigating the challenging terrain of anxiety or depression?

I am a skilled and compassionate therapist; I am committed to offering a non-judgmental, safe, supportive and collaborative therapy environment.

I help couples and families work through a variety of challenges. Difficulties with communication, emotional connectedness, child misbehavior, infidelity, and life transitions, among others. If your goals are to improve the quality of your relationships, create healthier patterns of behavior, support your loved ones while also receiving support, we might be a good fit. Despite living in the age of the internet with all of its opportunities for connection, more people feel isolated than ever before. In working with me, I hope to grow your sense of belonging, security, and significance to those valued people in your life.

Life demands tremendous effort and intention to navigate; but balanced mental health does not have to be a mystery. Perhaps you don't know what direction your life is headed or are stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns. You may suffer depression, anxiety, worry, have struggles with relationships, and feel burdened by life. However, your life can be changed in a profound way to help you achieve balance. OR you Got it all figured out but feel an urgent need to deepen your understanding of yourself?

Stuck? Repeating the same non-helpful patterns? Change often begins when we feel really listened to and understood. Struggles get untangled as we tell our stories in a safe place. My approach is to give each client a safe and compassionate place to tell their story and look for new pathways together. Sometimes the hope of change seems almost impossible, but in more than a decade of private practice, I have seen so many couples and individuals restore their hope and find a healing path to a new way of living. I'd love to join you on that healing journey for a season. Come on in. I'm eager to hear your story.

I look forward to connecting with you, as you search for understanding, meaning, and satisfaction in your life.

Are you tired of therapists who say that they do relationship therapy only to have you practice basic communication skills? Are you tired of the lack of progress and want to get unstuck once and for all? I specialize in making sure that time does continue to pass by while you are feeling weighed down in the status quo. I'm straightforward and honest. My clients describe me as annoyingly neutral when they try to get me to take sides against their partners. They also describe me as willing to ask the hard questions and willing to keep people accountable. I love helping people navigate every stage of coupling or uncoupling.
