Whether this is your first time seeking treatment for eating and body image concerns, or a return to therapy, I am here to walk with you on your journey to recovery. I have walked beside individuals at various points of eating disorder recovery from outpatient to partial hospitalization, and I bring that understanding and compassion with me to EBHA. I also work with individuals who struggle with depression and anxiety or struggling with stressors in life. A key component to my approach is identifying unhelpful beliefs and behavioral patterns that are no longer useful or meeting your needs.

Are you completely exhausted from your busy job or school schedule? Do you have a hard time setting boundaries and showing up fully in your personal life? Do you find yourself engaging in unhealthy habits such as poor eating or drinking too much? Are you finding modern life incredibly overstimulating and exhausting? If you are then you're most likely suffering from chronic burnout and fatigue! If you're feeling tired and sluggish even simple things can feel overwhelming to complete. You might notice you're feeling more anxious and depressed and more quick to get angry or frustrated. Thankfully there are ways to cope!

The climb towards resiliency and wholeness can prove to be steep. Beginning that process in the midst of painful life circumstances and finding a therapist who is well equipped, and a good fit to make that climb with you, can prove to be another difficult endeavor. Often times my clients seek counseling burdened by various challenging symptoms of shame, anxiety, and depression and I seek to provide a connective and attuned space where we can address these concerns sensitively. I work with adults, primarily LGBTQIA+ identifying folx, to develop balance and peace within their lives and relationships.

The stigma surrounding mental health care is finally starting to dissipate. It is my hope that preemptive counseling will eventually become as routine as annual trips to a primary care doctor. There’s much yet to be learned about the uncharted depths of the emotional world. The best place to start is in your own life. By doing your own work, you naturally pave the way for someone else to do theirs. Why not start today? If you’re stuck on your own path toward health, in a struggling relationship, or simply want to develop greater self-awareness, it’d be my honor to work with you.

You may find yourself wondering if this is how it is “supposed” to feel. Being pregnant or having a new baby is hard, so this is normal, right? You find yourself putting on a mask, declaring that everything is great when that really isn’t your experience. The message is everywhere that you are supposed to be your happiest and embracing every moment of this time, and guilt creeps in when that isn’t your reality. The worry, the struggle to be present. I see you. Your day is full of comparison traps making you wonder if you are good enough, doing enough. You may struggle to ask for help, and when you try you don’t know what to ask for.

I offer clients that I consult with over 40 years of experience in problem-solving efforts of multiple types of mental health, behavioral, interpersonal and emotional distress. During my career I have engaged clients in a variety of settings including group managed care practices, in-patient hospitals, outpatient community mental health and forensic. Clients have their unique expectations of treatment. Depending on temperament, some expect supportive feedback and advice while others respond best to directive interventions. Soliciting ongoing feedback from each client informs the best approach for the individual situation.

My ideal client is motivated to roll up their sleeves and engage in the therapeutic process. They are able to hold an open mind and practice effective coping skills to improve their overall functioning and quality of life. They can challenge themselves to be vulnerable and practice accountability while processing their problematic thinking patterns and behaviors in a safe and non-judgmental environment. They wish to engage in therapy because they realize that they need to make a change and are willing to take a leap of faith to make it happen.

I’m committed to providing my full attention and support in helping people work toward positive changes that align with their own values and goals. I work with adults and adolescents, and I take an eclectic and holistic approach to help with concerns that may include mental health, stress, trauma, grief, addiction, relationships, or adjusting to life changes. This may be a matter of short-term counseling to strengthen coping skills or overcome a specific challenge, or more in-depth therapy to better understand and resolve deeper patterns and issues.

In my practice I typically work with adults individually (in one-on-one sessions). Many of my clients have experienced problems with mood, particularly anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders. I especially enjoy working with individuals who are needing assistance with difficult relationships, trauma recovery, transitional life issues, and stress management.

You are NOT broken! Just because life gets challenging sometimes and you’re not always sure how to navigate it, doesn’t mean that you’re not good enough. We all get lost sometimes and lose perspective. We all need some guidance and support at some point throughout our lives. This is where counseling comes in!

We all get lost sometimes and lose perspective. We all need some guidance and support at some point throughout our lives. This is where counseling comes in!
From time to time we all get trapped in patterns and ways of thinking and feeling that don't feel good to us. Therapy provides a safe, warm, and nonjudgmental connection that allows you to better understand yourself: your feelings, thought patterns, and relationships with others. While the primary goal of therapy is to find relief from your immediate distress, the self-knowledge you will gain in therapy will help you cope with problems that arise long after therapy is over. I view therapy as a unique, collaborative process in which you work toward discovering your own truths, great and small.

I believe that people have the ability to change and heal through talk therapy. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental, and warm environment where my clients can become the individuals they want to be. My therapeutic style is an integration of psychodynamic, humanistic, and interpersonal therapies, while always holding cultural identities and values. I use mind/body based practices to help individuals reduce stress and increase their sense of connectedness to themselves and others. I assist my clients in identifying barriers, maximizing their strengths, and building self-compassion from a position of empathy and genuineness.

Are you a stressed out parent? Perhaps you're a parent of a neurodivergent child, or your child is suffering from mental health challenges. I hear you, and have walked the walk. Parenting a child with these struggles can leave us with anxiety and depression, can make us feel like we don't even know who we are anymore, or like we are just drifting through our lives on autopilot, disconnected and alone. If this sounds familiar, or you are struggling in some other way; in your relationships, at work, at home, I can help.
