There is a reason why the safety protocols on airplanes instruct us to put the oxygen mask on ourselves first in case of an emergency. We can not care for others if we don’t focus on our own needs, even with the very limited time most of us have daily. Yet many of us get stuck on a hamster wheel and end up giving and giving until we simply have nothing left. This in conjunction with trauma can lead to feelings of anxiety, depression, and hopelessness. My goal is to disrupt that cycle by providing a safe space for my clients to work through their most vulnerable emotions and emerge ready to tackle life’s challenges.

It does not matter whether you are 18 or 74 years old, sometimes you feel you do not get noticed. You feel your sensitivity, shyness, anxiety, body image, or other barriers to feeling confident stand in the way. You were the kid in school, that prayed not to get called on and sat in the back. Sometimes you get flashbacks to that age, and still feel that way at work meetings, or on a date. Perhaps insecurities have even gotten so bad that you have avoided dating, meeting new friends, or applying to dream jobs altogether.

Your thoughts are racing, stuck on replay. Your inner critic is winning. Life feels meaningless and exhausting. You want to escape reality. Feeling scared of vulnerability and hiding who you really are is wearing on you. Your relationships are draining. Feeling like a prisoner to your past is exhausting, too. Let’s face it: feeling confused, lost, and stuck has gotten old. For the people pleasers who put themselves last, the big-hearted ones who may lose sight of themselves, or the soft hearts who are in a rough patch, finding clarity that aligns with your heart, body and mind can be hard.

AETNA/CIGNA: Can schedule through my Headway link. For all other insuranc please email me. Thank you. - In my career, I have asked so many clients the same question. How much time do you devote to work, to school or college, to tending to family, to all the responsibilities of life? And then I ask how much time you devote to yourself, to your own needs, to have space to explore or process your thoughts and feelings? Usually, the answers have the same trend, people spend much less time for themselves versus on others. Therapy is the time and space that you provide yourself toward whatever you want to work on or would like to achieve.

My passion is bringing hope and healing to people facing the many challenges found in our daily lives. We live in an uncertain world and often our resilience and emotional health is tested. We endure broken relationships, chronic illnesses, abuses, loss of loved ones, school and job challenges along with life transitions. Many of us have now been impacted by larger events such as the pandemic, natural disasters, and community violence. It is my belief and my experience, that with every obstacle or adversity we face, we posses an underlying reliance that enables us to conquer those challenges and feel confident in managing our lives.
