I work best with adult individuals and couples who wish to address any of the following: anxiety; mind-body issues like IBS, chronic pain, back pain, etc; stress and trauma; relationship difficulties, life transitions, cultural differences, or spiritual issues; and depression. Therapy is individualized, determined by each client's personal needs, interests, and goals. My aim is to support and guide each person through his or her own unique journey towards greater health, wellness, wholeness, peace, satisfaction, and fulfillment. My work is guided by a holistic, mindfulness-based approach, resulting in gradual yet sustainable change.

It's exhausting always being the "strong" one that everyone turns to when they need something, isn't it? You're the one who gets things done. You're always making sure everyone else is ok before you take care of yourself. You're running on empty but you feel like you can't stop or all the balls will drop. It doesn't feel like there is anyone else you can count on to pick them up. You might also be a deep feeler and you carry emotional weight for others too. You're highly intuitive too. It often feels like you are not enough, no matter what you do. You're here because the weight of it is bringing you down and you need support.

Getting stuck on life's journey happens to all of us at one time or another. When you become more aware of your own story, thoughts, behaviors, emotions, and beliefs, you have an increased ability to face challenges and overcome adversity with success. My goal is to help you discover alternatives to address the challenges that you face.

"Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars" (Khalil Gibran). While suffering is part of life, and moving on always a possibility, figuring out how to reorganize the pieces of our puzzle after trauma has occurred can be a daunting task. Too often, we allow our past experiences and our scars to define who we are, and we get stuck in a dark place, incapable of taking that first step. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to walk that path with you.

Relationship Issues Therapists
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.
