Hi there! Do you find yourself with a near constant sense of unease? Are you often feeling overwhelmed by your relationships, career, or expectations you feel others have for you? Maybe there are certain things you feel like you need to do to relieve that unease, and if you don't, you'll be crushed by the weight of it all. Do you ever feel as though you have to conform to certain expectations of the world around you? Maybe you haven't seen yourself reflected in what others see as "successful," "mature," or even "good."

My job is to facilitate the process of change with individuals and families. I am experienced in helping people with problems in personal relationships and at work.

I believe the usefulness of therapy lies in the relationship the counselor and client create together. It is there that the client is able to safely explore the challenges of life. Within that relationship, personal strengths are cultivated, while weaknesses are identified and skills developed to inform how best to navigate through one's life fully. I have worked with students struggling under the pressures of academia; couples working to keep a relationship strong; couple's in the midst of separation/divorce; Individuals struggling with depression and anxiety.

Everyone functions uniquely, at times experiencing depression, anxiety, insecurities, doubt, and grief. I help people around these issues, as well as introversion, high-functioning Asperger's, bipolar, OCD, and social awkwardness...relationship issues, self-esteem, living with narcissists, identity. We can decide how to deal with life's changes, challenges, and transitions. We will focus compassionately on emotions, thoughts, behaviors, and relationships to examine patterns and slowly change them. Our ability to observe and use our will to change are the most powerful tools we possess to bring about changes we desire.

My primary therapeutic focus is to help teenagers and adults to develop a stronger sense of self and to develop the coping skills they will need to address issues of anxiety, self esteem and self worth. I use a non-judgmental, trauma informed and holistic approach to help clients develop their ability to self soothe, including using body/movement and grounding techniques. I focus on both personal autonomy and understanding ourselves in relationships, with the goal of moving out of stuck feelings and thoughts to embody a more curious stance of your experiences and the world around you.

We offer a safe, nonjudgemental, compassionate atmosphere. We use somatic and deeply relational modalities. Therapy sessions shouldn't be just talking about feelings, but instead having a new experience, so you leave each session feeling different, better. Together, we forge new pathways for lasting healing. While my caseload is often full, I have clinicians available to see you with extensive training in our shared approach, AEDP, under my close, expert supervision.

My group practice specializes in the treatment of trauma spectrum disorders, including post-traumatic stress disorder, dissociative disorders, trauma-related pain, and trauma-related somatic symptoms. Ongoing experiences of verbal, physical, or sexual abuse, neglect, and bullying can lead to these symptoms. Sometimes people suffer these effects because they have experienced chronic invalidation. We treat couples, people in non-traditional partnerships, adolescents who struggle with emotional and behavioral problems. We also treat survivors of sexual violence and targets of workplace bullying.

Despite all of your efforts to make changes in your life you may still be unhappy, discouraged, or lost. We often develop ways in life to distance ourselves from our emotional pain. While these strategies undoubtedly can provide temporary relief, they never heal the origin of our underlying pain in any profound way. In my opinion, meaningful change comes from honestly addressing and healing the core issue(s) of our lives. As we all know, honestly facing ourselves can be a tricky and difficult process. It takes courage, determination, and a willingness to be open and vulnerable to heal. This can be very difficult to do alone.

Currently, I have a couple of daytime appointments available! Sometimes it really makes sense to have a confidential setting to talk about overwhelming feelings or difficult circumstances. I have many years of experience helping people find their strengths in challenging situations. I use techniques that help people reduce depression and anxiety and increase feelings of well-being. I enjoy helping my clients develop skills that they can use independently.

I am a trauma-informed provider supporting individuals and couples navigating grief/loss, conflict, trauma and transition. I am passionate about supporting folks identifying as neurodiverse or neurocomplex (eg. eg. autistic, AuDH, diagnosed with ADHD, etc ). Clients I support often struggle with the impact of stories about who they "should be", questioning, "Do I matter?" or shedding pieces of themselves to create a sense of belonging. Understanding our stories is one of the bravest things we can do. Together we can explore yours, identify your values and strengths, and pursue healing and growth.

You are magnificent. Your experiences are valid. And, your experience in the world may be painful. I’m here for you, your stories, feelings, and somatic experiences. These are deserving of a space to be expressed. A core principle I strive to embody in my practice is consent and accountability when walking alongside you on your own journey to your most authentic self.

Life is hard. There are so many challenges that can get us off track. Most challenges can be diminished if not overcome by closely examining them and seeing them from a different vantage point. We can work together to pinpoint what makes meaning in your life and use what motivates you to overcome or better traverse whatever problem may be that you are experiencing. With good communication and a solid understanding and grasp of who you are and what you want out of life, I don't believe there is any issue in life that we cannot work together to mitigate or overcome. I have flexible hours that include days and nights.

Family Systems Therapists
Family Systems therapists view problems within the family as the result not of particular members' behaviors, but of the family's group dynamic. The family is seen as a complex system having its own language, roles, rules, beliefs, needs and patterns. The therapist helps each individual member understand how their childhood family operated, their role in that system, and how that experience has shaped their role in the current family.
