Accepting new clients. I am a marriage and family therapist that works with individuals, couples, and families. I believe everyone has the ability to improve and be the best version of themselves. Every individual and family is unique and I believe in adapting my approach to the client's needs and working collaboratively to reach their goals.

I have extensive experience working with a wide variety of issues with children, adolescents, and adults, which include anxiety/panic, depression, anger, mood disorders, suicidal ideation, sleep disorders, self-harm, grief, chronic pain, trauma, and PTSD. The foundation of my work recognizes that the mind, body and spirit are equally important in healing the person. Because there is a constant interaction between these 3 entities, each has a significant influence on the other. When all 3 entities are addressed, optimal and sustaining changes can be achieved. I enjoy working with all issues when using this approach to help you achieve your goals.

I work from the perspective that I don't know anything about my clients they haven't told me. I am not the authority nor the author of their lives. I am, however, a compassionate, skilled traveler-companion on their journey to wellness as they define it.

Finding a therapist that you can relate and feel comfortable with may be the most important part of therapy. My goal is to create an environment where you feel safe, supported, and heard, so that you can open up and get the most out of your sessions. I know that starting this process can seem overwhelming. Maybe you're not sure where to begin with all of this. Maybe you're feeling a little anxious. I've been there myself, and I'm here to help.

Are you finding your emotions (ie. stress, irritability, anxiety, frustration, etc) are overwhelming you? Is this related to relationship struggles, life transitions, work/career issues and family drama? Maybe you're triggered by past memories that have left deep scars. Or you're struggling to break the cycle of intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. Whatever you're struggling with, you just know that you've reached a breaking point of toughing it out on your own and you're wondering where to begin. With the right support and strategies, you can start living the life you've always wanted.

Whether you are feeling distressed and overwhelmed, facing anxiety and depression or wanting to resolve past traumas, I will walk that journey with you. Together we will welcome the capriciousness of life as a pivotal part of your unique story.

My ideal client is curious to explore their stuck-points, challenge their internal narratives, and make meaningful change to work towards their personal goals. I understand this process is not easy or comfortable and I encourage clients to engage in it with self-compassion and non-judgement. I believe the process of change is rooted in curiosity and learning and in celebrating moments where we stumble as opportunities to observe, learn, and grow from our experiences.

Drowning in a social media wormhole, exploring whether you have a personality disorder? Actively seeking an expert opinion on what is contributing to your distress, emotional instability, fractured relationships, & overall struggle with life? Individuals with personality disorders, like borderline personality disorder, experience distress or impairment from deep seeded patterns of behavior and perspective which clash with society's expectations. This can result in feelings of isolation and have a negative impact on one's life. You want treatment, but where's the experienced providers who specialize in this? That's the hard part.

My desire is to help my clients address the issues, needs, and goals that they encounter in their everyday life. Whether they're teenager or you adult I want them to be able to confront the challenges that are keeping them from achieving their goals.
