A bit about me- to start, I love this work and I feel honored to be with my clients during times of struggle and hopefully, some moments of laughter. I’m not an advice-giver and I don’t have life all figured out. So, no judgment. Instead, I hope to increase awareness, self-acceptance, and self-determination. I hope to highlight choices and to collaborate with clients to understand their behaviors including the function they serve currently or in the past. I am non-judgmental, supportive, always open to feedback, and flexible.

Not currently accepting new clients.......Life can be overwhelming, but we seldom take the time to ask for help. Whether you’re dealing with grief at the loss of a loved one, or looking for ways to adapt to new life changes, such a becoming a new parent, seeking counseling opens new opportunities to foster resiliency. Through the safe and open space therapy can create our goal will always be to process, reflect, and grow.

Therapy can be a wonderful tool to help you during a confusing or scary time. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals! I believe that everyone is capable of making choices and changes in their lives that will help them maximize their potentials if given the right support and feedback in a safe environment. This is what happens with good psychotherapy. I look forward to joining you on this journey!

Have you felt out of sync in life lately despite having done significant inner healing work? Do you find yourself stuck and unsure about how to move forward? It's common to experience these feelings, and we are here to provide the support and guidance you need. You deserve a safe, compassionate space to process your feelings and emotions without fear of judgment or backlash. We understand the importance of creating a nurturing environment where you can explore your inner world with honesty and vulnerability. You feel deeply, and this sometimes is a challenge in regulating your emotions effectively.

Life satisfaction begins with a healthy relationship with yourself. You are not stuck, you just need a little help digging deeper and exploring what you truly want out of life. I help individuals experiencing chronic health issues, life transitions, and career issues. Whether you feel depressed, anxious, burnt out, or stressed, having a safe space to explore the root of your suffering is important.

Life presents challenges, and we are compelled to adapt, but this does not mean we have to do it alone. Whether you need a helping hand, or are simply looking for someone to confide in, I want to offer you a judgment-free space of support. I strongly believe that having a place to be present with your emotions can make all the difference. We all have our own struggles that make us feel vulnerable and uncertain. However, I have always trusted that the human brain is innately programmed to be resilient and powerful. And your mind is nothing short of incredible.

I hope that this message found you ready to let go of the patterns that ail you and prepared to embrace something new. You do not have to suffer not one day longer, we can navigate it together and I can be with you sitting in your closet or in sweat pants petting your dog healing. If you are feeling stuck, uncertain of how or if therapy can even help, like the last man standing, judged or alienated, this is your place to be celebrated and accepted for all of who you are. A good therapy session realigns your inner compass and enhances the things that make you EXTRAordinary. Let’ connect, big personality, and complex trauma welcomed.

Does your life seem like everything should be okay, but it isn't? Do you have panic attacks, break out in sweat, have heart palpitations? Have you had sexually confusing experiences? Do you feel detached? Do you experience flashbacks? Do you have nightmares? Is it hard to fall asleep or stay asleep? Do you startle easily? Are your angry outbursts hurting your relationships? Do you feel guilt, shame, despair, hopeless, helpless, worthless, withdrawn, numb, irritable? Are you self-destructive? Are you hostile? If any of these are true for you, I would be honored to work with you.

I use a team-oriented approach and keep communication flowing between parents, teachers and counselors. I specialize in working with men ages 16+ for Depression, Anxiety, ADHD and Relationships. I am goal oriented, meet my clients where they are and love my job. I approach every client with kindness an compassion.

Have you lost direction along your path or facing barriers to achieving happiness? Struggling to manage difficult feelings and sometimes just get through the day? I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, certified in Brainspotting, who specializes in working with individuals who are overwhelmed by anxiety and depression often due to daily stressors, complicated relationships, life changes, loss or trauma that has taken root deep within.

I believe it is my job to collaborate with my clients to create a Narrative that feels authentic and attuned their passions, identities, and values. We often get lost in what we feel like we should or can't do, which confines us in little boxes that make it hard for us to feel vibrant and celebrate our uniqueness. I believe that when we explore and deconstruct the social constructions and dominant discourses in our social-cultural location and biases that don't align with our personal experiences or beliefs we have the autonomy and freedom to get in touch with our most core self and better understand how we interact with our world.

I am not afraid of hearing the hard truths that you don't share with others. I find it an honor and a privilege to come along side someone who trusts me enough to share their life, the good and the bad. I have supported people who have experienced things that they believe others think to be unreal, people who believe there is no reason to keep living, people who partake in activities they know are not good for them, people who struggle to have healthy relationships, and people that have been living in darkness. I want to help you break away from that darkness. I want to provide a space that fosters security, hope, and healing.
