My ideal client is a fresh face to therapy, ready to take a leap of faith and invest in their wellness. They are the young adults transitioning through life, navigating adulthood, parenthood, breakups, intimacy, self worth, family pressures and much more. My clients are brave, genuine, and vulnerable as they show up with the goal of achieving a better understanding and acceptance of their emotions, identity and direction. Anxiety, trauma, life transitions, relationships with self/others and support exploring emotional vulnerability are common areas of concerns with my clients.

Within each one of us is an inner child that holds the many hurts of our life. To survive this world, we hide the child away, building strong brick walls, preventing the child from emerging. Sometimes we use our “busyness” to ignore the cries of the child behind the barricades. Or we turn to anger, addiction and numbness to drown out the deafening cries. In our moments of brokenness, we stop and wonder, “Is this how I will have to live the rest of my life?” Trauma touches us all in different ways. The role of a therapist is to guide you through the pain and hurt so you can live a life of intention, meaning and inner peace.

“Mental health is not a destination, but a process. It's about how you drive, not where you're going" (Shpancer, Ph.D.). Each of us is on a personal journey striving to be our best selves. Sometimes, these journeys can leave us feeling unequipped to navigate their rough terrain. For most, this is the human experience. While we can't escape the realities and emotions of this experience, we can certainly learn more effective ways to cope. We can find ways to be gentler, more loving, and kinder to ourselves so that we may share this with our loved ones and our community.

Change is rarely easy. Life comes with changes that sometimes can feel overwhelming to navigate. Acknowledgment is the first step, and seeking help comes next. My approach is to meet you where you are, in a genuine and empathetic way. I provide a neutral, non-judgmental, yet challenging environment to explore and find positive coping strategies. I believe positive coping strategies empower us to live better lives and handle change effectively. I will walk with you on this path of your life, and will help you to become who you are destined to be.

Do you worry that you make decisions based more on other people’s approval rather than your own sense of truth? Do you feel disconnected from yourself and your relationships? Do you desire to live your most authentic life? Maybe you don’t know what it looks like. You might even feel afraid to find out. Life can feel scary at times. And sometimes we face moments that overwhelm us, that cause us to shut down and disconnect.
