I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My goal is to help you create the life you want to live. I do this by meeting you where you are, no matter where that might be. We all face trauma, loss, grief and unexpected life transitions. But these moments do not have to define our lives. Together we can successfully process and move through the pain, conflict and difficulty so that you can feel in control of your life again. I approach with a non-judgmental stance, so no topic, conflict or situation is out of bounds.

When working with children, I work with parents to improve family communication styles, help with setting healthy expectations and boundaries, strengthen family bonds through connection and fun, and teach evidenced-based parenting skills.
Is your child or teen overly emotional and reactive? Does your child withdrawal from others or refuse to try things because he or she is afraid of failing or worried about what others think? Does he or she have large emotional outbursts over small things? Or is your child or teen struggling with low self-esteem, communication with others, and developing meaningful friendships? Is your child or teen overly anxious when asked to do a task, transition to a new activity, or to try something new? Has your child or teen experienced a difficult life event, transition, or traumatic experience? You are not alone and I can help.

Do you feel unfulfilled in your life, like something is missing? Are you hiding certain behaviors from friends and family? Are you struggling with self-esteem, anxiety or depression? Are you using unhelpful coping mechanisms such as substance use, shopping, gaming/internet, or gambling to cope with those struggles? It is difficult to understand the "why" of our thought processes and behaviors on our own. Therapy is a powerful tool that can help you work through understanding your "why" and assist in handling life transitions, achieving goals, or finding relief from symptoms of depression, anxiety, or substance use issues.

I believe addiction and mental illness impacts the entire family and that family therapy is vital.
The trauma of addiction touches all of us in one way or another. Recognizing how addiction impacts you physically, mentally, and spiritually can be an awesome awakening to an entirely new way of life. Often individuals suffer from the consequences of making high risk decisions that cause crisis for themselves and their families. Dealing with these consequences alone may increase the desire to continue substances and more negative consequences. Allow me shed light on how to end this vicious cycle. I am a dedicated and compassionate clinician that is committed to the well being of my clients and their families.

Sometimes life comes at you fast. Unexpected events occur or transitions happen. That's what makes life exciting, but also challenging at times. Whether it be a job transition, adjusting to a new family, relationship issues or trying to find your way as a parent during the teenage years (or navigating life as a teenager yourself!), these experiences can often cause stress in our lives. As a result, you might find yourself not sleeping well, feeling anxious, experiencing low self-esteem, anger and sadness. You often wonder, when will everything get better and I'll feel like myself again?

My practice focuses on supporting individuals who are dealing with transition, life evaluation, chronic illness, loss and change. I have had the privilege of working with individuals who are dealing with caring for both children and aging parents, caring for a spouse or loved one or grieving the loss of an individual or relationship. I have also found that families benefit from dialogue regarding changes in roles within the family system as members get older and more/less dependent. Additionally, some of my clients come to counseling to work through the age old question of "What am I doing with my life?".
