Feeling anxious all the time is such a crippling feeling and can feel like there is no escaping it. Just when one anxious thought starts to go away, another one shows up and takes its place. It can feel like an endless cycle of racing thoughts, worry, and fear about anything and everything.

Trauma, anxiety, and depression significantly impact our lives and growth as individuals. It can feel like we're stuck, going nowhere, or drowning. I work with people who have experienced trauma and who may be struggling with the vast and confusing symptoms associated with anxiety and depression.

Have you been feeling lost or stuck in your life? Are you not feeling heard by your partner and your connection to them is suffering because of it?

If you are dealing with anxiety, poor body image, trust or intimacy issues, suicidal thoughts, mood swings, a complicated relationship with eating, and recent or past traumas, I want you to know that feeling grounded and connected is within reach. I have worked with individuals, couples, and families with these exact concerns for years. Your life's problems may seem impossible or difficult to overcome, and you may feel anxious about "explaining it all" to a therapist who is also a stranger. My goal is to lay those fears to rest.

There is a universal human need for our stories to be told, heard, and understood. Perhaps your story has painful memories that have caused anxiety, stress, and depression to enter your life.

Counseling can be a key component in your journey to overall wellness. The heart of counseling is to improve an individual's life by focusing on strengths to create a healthy difference that is long lasting. The spirit of counseling involves the individual becoming the co-counselor. Trust in knowing one's self better than anyone else, accessing one's own wisdom, and allowing an individual to attend to their own wounds: this places the individual in the driver's seat, all while working collaboratively with the counselor. This is how individuals are allowed to grow, heal and transform.

Counseling is a journey to improve your overall health and well being. I look forward to helping you along this journey as we work together. Counseling addresses the challenges that you may be facing in your daily life. I want to support you and empower you to be your best self.

As a 40-something with 15+ years of clinical experience in Marriage and Family Therapy, I have found that life is a journey of learning filled with twists and turns, many of which are beyond our power and control. It seems that when we are faced with the choices that naturally proceed from this journey, often we choose something not because it aligns with our highest value, but because it protects our unspoken vulnerabilities. If our greatest loyalty lies with our greatest fear or pain, then that fear or pain holds the potential to be either the cage that imprisons us or the opportunity that grows us to a new level of development.

When life feels confusing and overwhelming, it's like trying to juggle too many things at once. Sometimes, we cope in ways that aren't great for us, like eating too much or avoiding friends. But what if you had someone who understood, listened without judging, and helped you figure things out? If you're ready to try new ways to feel better and find peace of mind, you're in the right place. Let's take that first step together on a journey towards healing. I'll be here to support you all the way.
