I can list my expertise and say all the right things, but at the end of the day, it's the relationship between a therapist and a client that matters most and it has to feel right.
Feeling like there has to be more to life than this? Wondering how you got here? Is constant worry and self doubt leaving you feeling alone and not good enough? Deciding to take the leap and seek therapy is a really big step. I'm here to guide you towards recognizing your destructive patterns, healing your relationships (yes, the one with yourself), and walk with you on your journey to self fulfillment. Let's start by being honest, this won't be easy, it's hard work, but I'm here to listen and support you along the way. Life is hard enough, you don't need to do this part alone. It's time to begin prioritizing you.

During my time as a therapist I have extensive experience with addiction/alcoholism, depression/anxiety, trauma and relationship issues.
Reaching out for support takes strength and courage. I respect this, and my aim is to create a calm, inviting atmosphere where a deep sense of trust can grow between client and therapist. I believe that pain shared is pain lessened and that people can and do recover from issues that have been troubling them for years. I have found that many people enter therapy not because of a complex mental health issue but because of a general feeling of life not being what they would like it to be. I've been there. Many years ago I embarked on my own personal growth journey and I believe that has made me a more compassionate, empathic therapist.

I work with adults who are struggling with making changes in their lives. They may be stuck in habits, addictions, depression, anxiety, unhealthy relationships or unfulfilling work situations. The common thread is they are not living the life they want but rather are living from their limited programming and conditioning. Through understanding human psychological functioning and the deeper spiritual nature of being human, I help clients come back to their innate well-being. Understanding the role that thought plays in creating the reality you see makes the difference between being at the mercy of reactive thinking

Issues like these weigh you down as you continue to fulfill your roles at work, at home, and in your relationships. These struggles may be new to you, or you may have carried them alone for years. Perhaps you've even reached out for help but not yet found the right fit, yet you long to break through these challenges and feel like yourself again.

I sincerely trust in an individual’s ability to heal, even from profound pain and trauma. My practice focuses on intimacy and relationship well-being, as well as a wide range of psychological concerns, including: anxiety, recovery following illness or medical trauma (eg, life threatening diagnosis, or lack of regard by providers), deconstruction of old beliefs, pain with intercourse, sexual dysfunction, and grief. I also make it a sincere priority to be aligned with the LGBTQIA community. My website presents a great deal of information about sexual therapy, simply because it is often omitted from healing..

We are not meant to live life alone, but rather deeply involved in relationships. Some of these relationships are highly successful, while others have come with great loss, significant struggle or just the every day difficulty of learning to live and enjoy life with another person.

I will help you work through this on a personal level or with whomever you are needing to have a restored relationship with.

Whether addressing mood disorders, relationship challenges, trauma, or self-esteem issues, I'm here to listen, empower & collaborate with you.
Sometimes it can be incredibly difficult to cope with the stress and complications that exist in day-to-day life. There are deadlines, pressures, demands—on top of the regular responsibilities, which can feel isolating and overwhelming. Therapy can be a great tool in offering people a safe place to not only process and learn to heal from their greatest difficulties, but learn skills and tools in navigating their stressors outside of sessions, whether you're facing major life transitions, or coping with anxiety, depression, self-esteem or body image issues, trauma, or even family difficulties.

Trauma's not always what we think it is. It’s not always something big like an accident or loss of a loved one. More often it’s something that happens too soon or too different from what the person has experienced before, causing overload and shutdown in the system. Moving through life without being able to find resolution or make sense of it leaves the body feeling as though that overwhelming event is still happening. Without adequate support, the survivor feels trapped and like something is wrong with them. It's not you. Whatever happened, you can overcome it. A trusting relationship is often the first step toward healing.

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.
