Welcome! You have just taken a step towards self care. Simply seeking out a resource can put you on the path to becoming your true self. Be kind to yourself because you have overcome so much and despite it all you are here now. Life is a journey full of highs and lows and whether we realize it or not, each one of us has the ability to handle anything life brings. Therapy allows a person to understand how to use their amazing strengths. It equips you with the knowledge that you can successfully realize any goal and address any issue.

I have been working as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor for almost 30 years. I began my career doing play therapy with young children. While I loved that, I discovered that there is so much more to be explored in therapy when working with a variety of age groups. Over the years I have worked with many different ages and populations and I feel as though I’ve learned from my clients as much as they have learned from me. I believe that the connection that you have with your therapist is the first step to meeting any goal. While I often take a direct approach with my clients, I also tell them, “my goals can’t be your goals."

The decision to enter into therapy is a challenging one, which is why I strive to make your experience as comfortable and as empowering as possible.

Life can be challenging and we all have our ups and downs. At times, it can be difficult to move past what is getting in our way of our happiness in order to be our true selves. There is nothing like having an objective outsider that can truly listen in a non-judgmental way, help you to reflect on the situation and factors that may be contributing, and together come up with strategies which can allow you to move forward in a more thoughtful and meaningful way. I am here to be that person for you.

My approach to therapy considers that the mind and body are integral parts of a whole being. Achieving balance between these parts is an important component of the healing process and my goal is to help clients achieve this stability. Anxiety and depression can be unbearable and sometimes immobilizing; relationship problems can weaken our capacity for experiencing happiness; death, divorce and trauma can leave us hopeless and empty. My therapeutic approach strives to help client's emotional wounds heal in order to regain inner peace and improve personal growth.

I work with individuals struggling with complex chronic health conditions, body image, and self-esteem. I offer compassionate, whole-person, and solution-focused care based on your individual needs. I use trauma-focused mind-body therapies to ensure that you have the support and guidance that can transform your life. I value honesty, respect, and patience; these guide my practice and how I relate to my patients.

You’re an empathic, sensitive and creative woman who is finally ready to motivate and find meaning, but stuck in a negative spiral and struggling with emotions.
