My first goal as a therapist is to help you relate to yourself with more compassion, replacing harsh self judgement with eager curiosity. As this develops, we will work together to gain a better understanding of the underlying issues that lead to anxiety, depression, and other challenges to happiness. By helping you see yourself more clearly, you can live a more genuine, meaningful life, with stronger relationships.

As a licensed mental health counselor I work with adults, adolescents, and couples. I believe that helping people deal with problems begins with a trusting relationship in a nonjudgmental environment. Whether one is an adult struggling with depression and/or anxiety, an adolescent struggling with low self esteem and identity issues, or a couple experiencing difficulty in their relationship, I can be of help. Additionally I work with adults who are dealing with chronic illness.

I don't accept insurance but am able to keep costs down by only making home-visits, meeting off-site, and over Skype. This will maintain maximum privacy, giving assistance to people who otherwise might not be able to access mental health services. Our home-based sessions can also eliminate barriers for families who don't have good child care options or who have trouble securing rides to the clinic. My practice is cognitive-educational and solution-focused. We will process your understanding of the situation you are in and develop a strategic plan of action.

Life presents us with many challenges and stressors, and somewhere along the way we develop ways of meeting these challenges that may not be helpful long term. We can be left feeling disconnected from ourselves. You may find yourself stuck in patterns of overworking, overthinking, avoiding, trying to be perfect, and chronic stress. As a therapist, I want to help you understand why these unhelpful patterns developed and facilitate your innate capacity to grow and heal. I named my practice Waypoint Psychotherapy because I believe that therapy is a place to ground and orient, so you can continue your journey as your true self.
