If you are feeling stuck in unhappiness, overwhelmed by the pressures of daily life, or have been carrying a burden for too long, you are not alone. Therapy can help you heal from the past, feel more connected to the people around you, stop unwanted thoughts and find more enjoyment in your life. I help people overcome their past to be able to build better relationships, find their drive and live a more satisfied life.

The clients I work with have often experienced profound changes in their mood or behavior, suddenly or gradually. They don't feel like themselves. Their anxiety may not go away. They're stuck or simply not happy in their current life choices. I help clients identify unhealthy patterns and triggers to distress. In our time together, clients develop skills to interrupt unhelpful or unwanted patterns in thought, mood and behavior. My clients are often looking to improve relationships, work toward goals and reduce stress. They want to gain healthy coping skills and learn positive reframing to improve functioning and stability.

I focus on unresolved family of origin issues that typically result in the child never outgrowing appropriate insecurity. This then becomes inappropriate insecurity in adulthood which compromises the emotional quality of life in intimate relationships. This adult emotional insecurity manifests itself when a person unknowingly becomes excessively emotionally or physically dependent upon other human beings or activities for that emotional or physical nurturing. The loss of this nurturing will then trigger emotional stress. When this emotional stress becomes chronic, psychological and physiological problems can occur. I identify and teach my clients how to overcome this lifelong insecure thinking and behaving.

Welcome. Navigating the challenges of today's world can be hard to do alone. This journey can feel even more difficult when we are dealing with negative feelings and stressful events. I believe therapy is more than a place to talk about our feelings and experiences. Therapy should provide a warm and welcoming safe environment. It should be free of judgments and offer you the space to form a trusting and respectful therapeutic relationship on your own terms. As a therapist, I strive to provide transparency and compassion in a setting that is never rushed and always client lead, via Telehealth.

If you are feeling stuck, ever found yourself telling others you feel "stuck," feel like you have tried therapy before, and nothing helped. If you have gone through a major life event: moved, relocated, had a baby, got married, in and out of relationships, struggling to communicate at work, school, or home. If you are realizing that old stuff from your past has surfaced, is starting to surface, and it's harder and harder to keep it all inside and feel tense inside. If you have realized you don't want your children to experience or be raised the way you have been.

I provide an empathetic and compassionate practice with an interest in supporting adults and adolescents across all genders in their mental health journey. I aim to foster a safe environment to help clients from different cultural backgrounds explore their emotions, beliefs, and experiences, whether that comes from a religious standpoint or a universal one. From motherhood to relationship issues to identity exploration, my goal is to encourage personal growth while also empathizing the importance of mutual respect and equality to those who feel unvalued and misunderstood.

I enjoy walking beside children and their families who are motivated to see positive changes happen in their lives that are willing to put in the work to achieve that. I typically see children who are dealing with anxious, depressive, adjustment, and trauma disorders. I enjoy working with parents who would like to form stronger, healthier attachments with their children. When working with families, I enjoy helping parents and caregivers learn positive parenting skills to improve communication and connection with their children. I enjoy helping people learn that their emotions don't control them - they control their emotions.
