Usually, the thing that brings us to therapy has us feeling stuck. We might feel paralyzed with indecision as parts of our internal selves compete with one another for attention. We might experience recurring conflict with people we care about. We might feel that our identity - our internal self-knowing - is somehow being prevented from fully expressing itself because of messages we receive from family or society. Most often, the reason we seek therapy is some combination of the above, and as a result of our “stuckness” we may feel sadness, despair, anxiety, anger, or an unnerving lack of feeling altogether.

I have helped many families over the last decade of my practice learn authentic communication and develop compassion with boundaries that can help teens feel heard and accepted.
I specialize in treating adolescents and young adults with behavioral and relationship issues related to anxiety, depression or mood disorder. Teens nowadays are confronted with stressors and challenges that previous generations did not face and as such require unique understanding and approach.

How many times have you wanted to just quit everything? Maybe you're burnt out, profoundly anxious, or crumbling under all the pressure you've put on your shoulders. Maybe you felt like things weren't working for a while, but you told yourself that you should hold out a little longer in case it all changes. Or maybe you've been piling on promises and now there's too much going on to even know where to begin. And maybe you've heard more than once in your life that you "really need to chill." If that sounds like you, I'm glad you're here.

Do experiences from the past keep coming back to haunt you? Are you stuck and find that your past still impacts your mood, sleep, health, and behaviors well after the experience? Maybe you recreate harmful patterns and are troubled by emotions and memories from an experience long ago. The past not only impacts you but those around you. Some many find themselves angry and irritable and others use substances to numb their pain or engage in behaviors that you know will hurt you, your relationship, or your family in the long run. Despite everything you have tried, you cannot find peace.

Trauma, chronic illness(es), and eating disorders are intense, unique experiences that can change the way we think, respond, and prepare for day-to-day activities. It can also change the way our body functions on a basic level. My goal is to provide a comfortable environment where everyone can explore traumas, create coping skills, and gain self-confidence. It is within a safe, comforting environment that people have the potential to create meaningful change in their lives.

Therapy is a process that works to resolve unhealthy or problematic thoughts, beliefs, behaviors, relational patterns, and/or emotions. It is a process that starts by gathering information and dives into understanding the different pieces of your story and how they work together. The pieces, or themes and events, of your story, the characters encountered, the obstacles faced, and the meaning(s) made from experiences play a role in how you understand self and self in relation to others. It's my privilege to come along side you on your journey and to help sort out those pieces.
