Whether you're needing support for yourself, your child or teen, or your whole family, I'm here to partner with you on that journey. As a parent, I understand both the joys and challenges that come with having children. I also remember well the highs and lows of growing up!

Many people can be too hard and not kind enough to themselves. Life is difficult enough, and not being on their own side through their struggles makes it even more so. Whether you’re new to therapy or have some experience with it, starting with a new therapist can be overwhelming. I invite you to a warm, inviting space where you are able to show your full self. I tend to use a holistic and integrative approach. Your sessions are your time and I will meet you where you’re at while providing a therapist viewpoint.

Feeling stuck and like you can't break through? Struggling with depression or anxiety? I work with men who are stuck struggling with feelings of disconnection, loneliness, and a sense that something is broken within them. This is leaving them feeling overwhelmed and emotionally distant. I help guys understand and manage their emotions so they can communicate clearly, build meaningful relationships, and live a life aligned with their true values. While I do specialize in working with men, I have, and do work, with anyone looking to enhance their mental wellness. You deserve happiness and your family deserves the best version of you!

My main purpose as a therapist is to help clients discover what they want and help them get there. My background in theater and improvisational work has informed my theoretical approach to remain open to the moment and allow clients the space to participate in their experiences without judgement. I use several modalities including Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Experiential Role Playing, among others, to assist clients in examining how limiting beliefs about themselves and the world may be holding them back.

So often, dealing with emotional and mental health challenges can feel isolating and confusing, not to mention exhausting. The stress of daily life combined with past experiences can reek havoc on our internal and external functioning. Finding a therapist who can listen to truely understand your experiences, offer compassion and empathy, and provide space to heal, regardless of where you are in your struggle, can sometimes feel overwhelming.

Counseling is based on building a relationship of trust. I specialize in working with young adults who are adjusting to big life changes. I often work with client's wanting to focus on anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship challenges, and trauma. I also enjoy working with the LGBT+ community and those exploring their identity. I believe every individual has their own unique needs, and we can work together to identify what is most important to you in counseling.

Living authentic lives aligned with our true values & beliefs is challenging at times. When out of alignment, we may recognize we no longer function well, feel stuck, or lack a sense of meaning and purpose. Previous coping strategies may no longer be sufficient to deal with life’s unexpected events. We may need help to access our innate wisdom & strengths, claim our own voice & self-worth, & free ourselves to move towards our goals.

Therapy is about telling the truth, healing old wounds, and making changes. Most of my clients are smart, sensitive, conscientious types who are vulnerable to overthinking and anxiety because you think and feel so much. Some of your greatest gifts - such as your empathy and intelligence - have a way of turning against you and making your life harder. If this sounds like you, we might be a good fit. I transitioned from being a philosophy professor to a mental health counselor after realizing that I enjoyed counseling my students more than teaching them.

I have worked as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 23 years. I enjoy working with a wide range of individual concerns, including depression, anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, abuse/trauma, addictions, and phase of life issues. I find that many of us have expectations that life will be better, that we will finally be happy, when we reach a certain milestone, or when we do what makes others happy, or if we work hard.

Perfection and anxiety can make you feel overwhelmed and out of control. The anxious feeling can make you feel constantly scattered, not having a relaxing moment. Your brain is always on go. The desire to be perfect is a struggle to reach, and not obtainable. Therapy can help your brain slow down, calm down, and stop having a escalating desire to panic. You can turn your life around and enjoy it the way you want.

Anxiety and depression produce emotions that are uncomfortable and disrupt our quality of life. However, anxiety and depression can benefit us if understood in a healthy manner. Giving anxiety and depression a voice by verbalizing our experience can be a great first step in understanding their purpose. Learning techniques and using tools that help us form a healthy relationship with anxiety and depression can empower us to manage them more effectively.
