If you’re reading this then you have decided that it’s time to get reconnected with yourself, your partner, or even your friends. Dating may be a struggle, you may be having trouble finding direction with your partner, or you may even be holding yourself back from opportunities that you feel you're not good enough for. There's one thing that is often the common denominator: relational trauma. When you’re hurt by the people that you love, it breaks and it builds.

Currently accepting new telehealth clients. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with nearly a decade of professional experience working in the mental health counseling field. My experience includes working with both individuals and families of all ages. Many individuals find themselves feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and unbalanced due to struggles with personal challenges, relationships, and daily life demands. Working together, clients will discover how past/current negative habits and thought patterns impact choices, interactions with others, and possible prevention of desired future goal successes.

I am passionate about the overall health and well-being of humans and believe in taking a holistic approach to healing. Everything I do with you is personalized to your needs

Therapy is a unique experience for each person. It helps you learn about yourself, your relationships and how you interact with the world. It can be a place to find healing and self-understanding. I believe that society and culture impact our thoughts, feelings, and relationships. As a counselor, my approach is integrative, but grounded in attachment theory. I offer individual, couples, and family counseling. For couples therapy, I utilize Emotionally Focussed Therapy, which is backed by over 20 years of research on attachment relationship patterns. Research shows that approximately 90% of couples show significant improvements.

I welcome the opportunity to help you overcome challenges and achieve your goals. I have extensive experience with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorders and addictions. My approach to counseling varies according to the client's individual needs, however, my training has largely focused on psychodynamic therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Family systems therapy, and Mindfulness. This broad base of training allows me flexibility to choose research-based interventions that are most appropriate for each client. I am currently accepting clients age 18+, couples and families.

What’s stopping you from being free? Yes, I know, everything happens for a reason but how you grow from that anxiety, that depression, or family conflict you have and are experiencing is completely up to you. Now is the time to move from just existing to truly living. Sometimes in life, because of hardships that we face or people that we are connected to, we lose focus on being the best version of ourselves, but through therapy we can explore that process. I would love to be a part of your journey to total healing.

Is life hard right now? Maybe you feel overwhelmed in your relationship, parenting or at work? Maybe other areas of your life are stressful. Sometimes life is difficult, and it is completely expected that you might not feel ok! That's why I am here to help. I use various modalities and techniques to help you work through whatever stress you might be experiencing; however, I strive to help you feel like we are just having a good conversation about your life. I provide a safe, nonjudgemental environment for you to process anything you may need to process. I have a niche of helping clients recover from narcissistic abuse.

As you find yourself stepping into a new journey, it's easy to also find yourself overwhelmed with all of your "hats" that seem to be any combination of marriage, divorce, career changes, grief, or parenthood. So many of our daily habits are shaped around how our bodies respond to stress, past trauma, and unhealthy coping patterns, yet all of our roles leave us with little time actually to deal with them. Our time together could give you time to sit with all of YOU. We can work together to practice healthy ways to respond to our emotions as they come and get you closer to living a life rooted in acceptance and confidence.
