Life's challenges, combined with negative thinking patterns, can feel overwhelming and unmanageable. But change is possible! As a therapist, my role is to support and guide you on your journey to self-discovery and healing. My aim is to equip you with tools, coping strategies, and fresh perspectives to achieve the outcomes you desire. You are worth the work and effort it takes to become a healthier, stronger version of yourself. I firmly believe that everyone has the power to break free from self-defeating cycles and create positive change, but sometimes we need a little help recognizing our own strengths. Let's tap into them!

My area of competence includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused, Person Centered, and EMDR.
Are you struggling with feeling overwhelmed. Perhaps you find yourself persistently acknowledging your fatigue but feel compelled to keep going. Do you suppress your true emotions behind a brave face and struggle with people-pleasing tendencies, intrusive/racing thoughts, lack of motivation, and poor emotional regulation skills, you're not alone. Are you struggling with setting healthy boundaries in relationships? It's not uncommon for things to unravel in the face of distress. However, the journey to resilience isn't a linear process. Healing entails a spiral of unraveling, learning, and growth.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy, various approaches drawn from Narrative Therapy, ART, Brainspotting, Redecision Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing strategies.
Life presents itself as a series of obstacles with some higher than others. Seeking help is hard enough, and it's my job to ease the process by offering my clients a warm, empathetic, and safe place to address their challenges. Therapy is a collaborative process between client and therapist to understand a client's current life narrative and to reimagine a new narrative that aligns well with a client's goals and perspective. If you are struggling with a particular issue, or prefer a safe place to express yourself, I am happy to help you explore your issues.

I take a solution focused and strengths-based approach.
Hey! First, I want to say how proud I am of you for exploring the idea of counseling. Asking for help can sometimes be the most difficult part. No matter what phase of life we are in, we all need support, and aren’t meant to make this journey alone. Our life experiences shape and mold us into who we are - sometimes those experiences create moments of great sadness, fear, anger, leaving us confused and wondering what direction to take next. You have what it takes to restore a healthy identity, to find purpose in your life, and to heal.

I’m excited that you’ve found me! Now take a deep breath and know that you are not alone in your journey. I believe in helping people find healing, peace, and navigate through life. My great passion is helping women through perinatal challenges, experience true clarity in their thoughts, and become confident in themselves. Sometimes when we put ourselves first, it can bring on feelings of fear, shame, and judgement. I strongly feel that taking a moment to slow down and looking inside yourself can help you become strong, brave, and confident.
