If you are facing challenges within your family or personal relationships, experiencing stressors at work, feeling stuck making major life decisions (maybe a little bit of everything?) I can help. My journey into offering therapy developed from a childhood curiosity about others' journeys and a desire for everyone to be comfortable in their own skin. My style is informal and inquisitive. Among other techniques, I use solutions-focused methods to help reframe your perspective on your experiences.

Anxiety. I hate that guy! Alright, I know it's not a real person. Still, if you have had anxiety, you know what I mean. I first experienced anxiety when I was 6. It was my nearly constant companion for many years. I know it can feel that it takes away from who you are, who you want to become. Until it doesn't. Until you find a way to beat it back, put it in the background. Silence it. I can teach you how to do that.

I enjoy working with individuals throughout the lifespan. My experience as a school psychologist has given me an understanding of the challenges of both being and parenting a child with special needs, as well as navigating life as an adult with a disability or chronic health condition. I also have experience in working with clients suffering from depression, grief/loss, anxiety, trauma, panic attacks, and phobias. I have a special interest in working with clients who are neurodivergent and those who identify as LGBTQIA. I also abide by HAES principles and support all of my clients in body positivity.

Do you ever feel stuck with where you are right now and don't know how to change that? We can imagine our lives in a better place or that change already implemented, but we don't know how to get it started. Sometimes we don't know where to start and need some assistance in that journey. Approaching therapy for the first time can be daunting, but if we treat it as a space where there's a listening ear, reflection, and some guidance towards making a change then it can be lighter.

Are you a parent/caregiver looking for someone to help your child, or are you a young adult looking for someone to talk to? Youths have unique challenges to face: school stressors, difficulty socializing with peers, struggles in identifying complex feelings, having a hard time focusing, and the list goes on. You may have noticed that your (or your child’s) struggles have worsened throughout COVID-19 for a variety of reasons, which is certainly not uncommon. If you feel anxious, sad, lonely, scattered, or overwhelmed, you are in the right place. You don’t have to go it alone. Whether you’re 5 or 25, my goal is to help you feel heard.

Are you feeling unhappy or even miserable? Are you struggling with managing or coping with the stressors that are overwhelming your life? Have you tried to feel better on your own and nothing seems to be working? If the answer is yes to any of these questions and you are willing to invest in yourself, I may be able to help. We will work together using evidence-based therapeutic interventions such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). More often than not, I find individuals view change or a transition as uncomfortable and scary.
