I believe in therapy. It can play a vital role in coming to terms with the past, living life in the present, and anticipating the future… We cannot erase a difficult history. But we can change our relationship to our pain, and we can identify the things within our control. I believe that self-understanding is key for making healthy changes... The importance of working to understanding ourselves cannot be stressed enough.

Since attending therapy is an implicit admission of imperfections for most people, my approach to counseling is person-centered and collaborative. Once the therapeutic alliance has been established, this approach allows clients to express their emotional reactions, develop more productive ways of dealing with feelings, and increase their levels of understanding and awareness. My counseling philosophy is to provide support, education, feedback and treatment that inspires clients to successfully take appropriate actions that will assist with solving their problems. Therapist qualities that I utilize include, but are not limited to, mutual respect, authenticity, genuineness, integrity, and the ability to empathize.

Looking for help? Searching for answers? For change? Do you feel your hope diminishing; that "this is not the life that I should be living, I AM missing something." If you can admit thoughts like this, then you are on the edge of change. Where you are now emotionally is not where you will always be, if you take a step of courage and reach out for help. The life you seek, that you desire, is available to you. You can have it, with one changed thought at a time.

As your therapist, it’s my job to meet you where you’re at. What are you hoping to get out of therapy? We will identify goals and work together to achieve them. Whether you’ve been in therapy for years or this is your first session, we will work together to figure out what will be most beneficial. Therapy sessions can look a variety of ways. Maybe it’s processing a recent trauma, other times identifying and breaking unhealthy patterns. Our sessions will be a safe space where we can learn coping skills, build a better relationship with yourself and your body, figure out effective tactics for managing stress/anxiety, and more.

As a therapist, I am driven by the desire to help individuals become happy, confident advocates to attain needs and goals within their lives, overcoming barriers of systemic, chronic, and/or situational adversities that continue to hold them back.

People who enjoy working with me often like my sarcastic humor and direct, but compassionate, approach.

I specialize in helping individuals & couples cope with anxiety, relationship disconnection, self worth issues, people pleasing behaviors, &/or unresolved past pain. A common reason individuals come to me is because they want help being more authentic or addressing something unresolved from their past. Maybe your story is one of being caught between 2 worlds - what the world or family wants from you and who you want to be? Possibly you are used to supporting others and want someone who will listen to you for a change? Or this strategy of pushing aside issues from your past is leaving you exhausted and breaking down at times.

“Courage starts with showing up, and letting ourselves be seen.” -Brene Brown. I believe the core of humanity and relationships is letting our whole selves be seen: the good, the bad and the ugly. That courage does not always come naturally. I hope to help others find that courage in my therapeutic practice. I believe you already possess the capacity for healing, and by working together we will find the path to restore that belief in yourself. My goal as a therapist is to find an approach that works for each individual to ensure their personal needs, interests and therapeutic goals are being met.
