I help stressed out professional women who feel undervalued at work and unappreciated at home regain their enthusiasm for life. Despite having achieved "success", they are anxious and hopeless, and their accomplishments feel meaningless. When they first come to therapy, their self-esteem is at rock bottom and they feel misunderstood by friends and family. They have found themselves managing the emotional load of all household and family tasks on top of their highly responsible careers, and feel STUCK. Others tell them they should be grateful, which makes them feel worse. They barely recognize their former selves in the mirror.

Healing occurs when we feel seen, heard, and accepted. We become empowered to live a life that aligns with our values. A felt sense of safety and grounding is key to regulating our nervous systems and accessing our inner wisdom. We will work collaboratively on challenges and explore how they can be opportunities for personal growth. We will explore specific tools and coping strategies that can be useful for you in your process.

Are you stressed out, overwhelmed, struggling in relationships, and unsure what to do next? You wonder, "where do I go from here.” You want something better for yourself but don't know what to do or how to get there. I work with adults who are struggling with substances, or in recovery, and their families to manage stress, control their emotions, and find purpose & peace. Trying to navigate the waters of recovery alone can be a recipe for disaster; at worst it means relapse, at best it means a life of being restless, irritable, and discontent.

Along with these modalities, I often utilized Mindfulness Based and stress-reduction practices.
Hello and welcome! The willingness to be here and begin the therapeutic relationship is a vital step on the journey ahead. If you are feeling overwhelmed with negative intrusive thoughts, anxiety, depression or intense emotions, you are in the right place. Within the therapeutic relationship I seek to create an empathetic, non-judgmental environment that fosters development. It would be a privilege to provide a space in which we can collaborate on the challenges you are experiencing, and education surrounding the tools to combat these difficulties.

We tend to forget just how connected the mind and body are when it comes to facing life’s challenges. For example, have you ever noticed having physical body pain during a time of significant stress? Or even instances of grief and loss, trauma, relationship concerns, chronic illnesses, burnout, etc. Is your body tensing right now just reading this? (If so, I invite you to take a minute to think about your “happy place” and breathe before reading on!). I am a firm believer that healing is not linear, and that we can use therapy as a time to approach ourselves, emotions, and sensations with an open mind.

Relationship stress, grief, loss, life transitions, a lack of sync or control can all feel overwhelming. When our minds and bodies are out of balance, emotional reactions can intensify, create chronic stress, and lead to other chronic illnesses. Regardless of how great your support system is, it's not easy for friends and family to remain neutral or even patient when you need to talk about what's bothering you. It can cause more frustration and decrease connection. When there are complex or long term pains and struggles, collaborating with someone who IS neutral and focused on YOUR needs helps facilitate healing and lasting peace!
