Life is full of tricky philosophical puzzles: figuring out our moral, political, and religious values; having friendships, marriages, or other relationships; choosing and pursuing a career; grappling with aging and death; and many more. While traditional methods of psychology are helpful for a wide range of issues, more and more people are finding that it makes sense to turn to a philosopher to help them make progress on challenges that are genuinely philosophical. My ideal client is someone from any walk of life who wants to work on the puzzles of living and become an author of the story of their own life.

There’s a story behind every smile. This is a story is not always as simple as reading Dr. Seuss. These stories can be warped by the secrets tucked away in the closet on top of the numerous factors we encounter everyday, can make it a struggle to remember our sense of self. That’s why I believe therapy is an opportunity to untangle and review the story, your story, and discover how the hero overcomes their adversities and becomes the best version of themselves.

We live in a time where mental health struggle is a highly prevalent reality. I regularly talk with children, teens, and adults who are struggling with challenges including anxiety, ADHD, depression, and family concerns. Many times, we feel depressed and anxious because of negative thoughts about self, overwhelming circumstances, and challenging relational dynamics. These concerns are extremely common and are causing many people to have difficulty experiencing life with joy and satisfaction and functioning to their full potential.

Do you feel stuck in the past unable to let go no matter how hard you try? Perhaps you feel more anxious then you'd like every day- struggling with overwhelm, irritation, or maybe even perfectionism. Maybe you feel that nothing you ever do is good enough, and your self esteem could improve. Has depression made it nearly impossible for you to get things done or even go to work some days? Are your relationships suffering and you don't understand why or how to improve them? These (and more) are concerns I can help with. Let me offer a ear to listen and some tools so you can feel self empowered to create long lasting changes!

You never know until you try. - I understand the hurt caused by anxiety, depression, couples' issues and trauma and my approach to therapy is client-centered. I work to find the most-effective treatment for each individual. I accomplish this by seeking feedback from my clients and applying it. Most often, I offer suggestions for actions to take between sessions, with the goal of changing behaviors in order to improve daily functioning. Clients also often experience catharsis in being able to talk about things in session that they otherwise would not have been able to say out loud. I offer an unconditional environment for that.

I believe that each individual is both the text and the author, and work with clients to make meaning and find fulfillment in a world that is often unpredictable. I consider reflection and revision of earlier chapters, as well as intentional focus on the present moment to be key components in the process of taking ownership of one’s experience. Some of my areas of professional interests include identity (particularly surrounding issues of gender), guilt and shame, drug and alcohol use. I am also interested in healthy relationships, trauma and the social determinants of mental health.
