Helping my clients navigate the personal issues that bring them to therapy is a privilege I take very seriously. My clients are willing to team with me to develop therapy goals and work with me to reach those goals. While I have expertise in working with a wide-range of mental health problems and stressors, I believe that therapy requires active work on the client's end as well! I view improvement as a team effort. Please see my website for more details about my services and philosophy.

Our minds are incredible tools for experiencing life- and yet , the mind can so easily slip into anxiety and overthinking. Our memories can bring us joy and a sense of identity, but we can also get "stuck" in past patterns & hurts. Therapy is a unique type of relationship focused on your empowerment and growth. We'll work together to create awareness around those mental, emotional, and behavioral patterns. From here, we'll seek ways to implement positive, conscious changes, based on your personal values and desires.

Are you curious about your own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors? Do you feel as if you may harbor deep-seated emotional issues, have unresolved childhood conflicts, or engage in patterns of behavior that you struggle to understand and/or change? Are you simply feeling stuck? You may know what you would like to do differently, but cannot seem to make sustainable changes, or perhaps you don't even know where to begin. You are not alone. Allow me to show you how capable you are of leaving behind what no longer serves you and stepping into the highest version of yourself.

Have you struggled to find peace of mind in life? Have life's transitions thrown you for a loop? Sounds like you've been trying to get the most out of life and that journey has impacted your mental health. This is where I can join you, right where you are, with whatever concern(s) you have. I work with adults and teenagers to find the balance they've been looking for. All I ask is that you're open to trying something new. It was Thomas Jefferson who said: "If you want something you've never had, you must be willing to do something you've never done." Let's explore these possibilities together.

Whether expected or unexpected, we all go through changes or transitions in life. Have you gone through a major life change recently? Even though you may be planning and excited for this transition, that doesn't mean stress and anxiety necessarily go away. Now let's add a pandemic to the mix! This past year is a perfect example of an unexpected change that highly impacted many areas of our life. I think it's safe to say we have all had moments of panic, fear, or overwhelming anxiety triggered by COVID-19. Do you find that you are still struggling with these feelings?

Currently accepting clients with immediate openings! If there is one common human emotion, it is a feeling that we are doing the best we can. We like to feel we always make our best decisions. The struggle exists when we learn and understand that today’s decisions were informed by the many experiences of many yesterdays. We want today’s actions to provide tomorrow’s happiness, leveraged on yesterday's chaos. I have built a career on understanding that change is scary, but necessary. If you are here, then you have already done the hardest part: getting started.

The beautiful anomaly of therapy is it is something that everyone can use yet what one needs and finds beneficial is different for everyone. As a provider, I utilize a person-centered approach because I believe counseling should be individualized. The working relationship between client and therapist is something that can be transformative both inside and outside of the office.
