Sometimes, life can be challenging, confusing, and even paralyzing, but it does not need to stay that way. I know that it can be difficult to seek help, especially if you have never done it before. Maybe you have spoken with a friend about the things that have been going on, but you still feel the same. This is where I come in. My goal is not to pull or push you to change, instead, it is to walk alongside, providing you with guidance and empathy. If you have been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, with low mood, and overall just exhausted, I'm here to help. It doesn't have to stay this way, and it can get better!

Waitlist for new clients
I believe therapy is a way to enrich life and develop connection in a space with compassion and free of judgment. My methods involve treating the whole person, mind, body & spirit. I believe it is important to identify and process emotion, non-verbal communication, somatic expressions and subconscious processes. Memories play a part in how our brains process and store meaning to life. Misinterpreted meaning sometimes becomes internalized and leaves us with unwanted thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. As we work together we process those memories leaving undesired mind/body connections behind.

You deserve the love you so freely give to others. – Alexandra Elle. For many of us, it is so easy to give, encourage and lift up the people we care about, and to pour into others without a second thought. These same folks often find it is a challenge to look after their own needs. They feel tired, compassion fatigued, or ready to give up. We get stuck in our thought patterns and routines and never stop to ask ourselves, "When was the last time I took care of me?" If you're looking to bring restoration and balance back to your life, therapy may be the best way to start.

My approach to therapy centers around the belief that every individual has inherent dignity, and is worthy to be seen, heard, and cared for. Anyone is welcome into my office. Every life experience is unique, and often these experiences can carry specific hurts, pains and sorrows. When life feels overwhelmingly challenging and burdensome, counseling can be a wonderful mechanism to assist in times of need. I believe that peace and joy are possible, and that no story is hopeless, because no story is done being written.

Feeling broken or overwhelmed? I understand. I've done much research on addiction, codependency & adult children from dysfunctional families. It is possible to overcome barriers to intimacy and learn why we repeat the same relationship mistakes over and over again in new relationships or why we choose unhealthy people. We can change and think differently. It takes effort and accountability, but there is help and hope. Learn from your past. Don't continue to be its victim and let the past determine your future. I work with mental health and all kinds of addictions (substances and behavioral). Let's talk. Live life!
