I've been a therapist for a little over 10 years. I've done intensive in-home family therapy, group induvial and family therapy in a pediatric mental hospital where I was an assistant unit director and provided supervision to other therapists. In the past I taught anger management classes to kids, taught divorce classes to divorcing parents, and relationship classes to single and married people in the past. Online I've worked with kids as well as done a fair amount of couples counseling.

If you are considering starting therapy, you may be at a vulnerable place in your life. It's possible you're healing from past experiences, managing conflict, struggling to discover who you are, or experiencing new or enduring mental health symptoms. You may have even tried therapy before and felt defeated by a lack of therapeutic connection or ability to create meaningful change. I am passionate about creating a space where children, adolescents and adults feel their most seen, heard and accepted even when they feel their most vulnerable.

Are you suffering, or do you feel "stuck?" Do you feel alone or fearful? Do you struggle to connect to others, yourself, or your purpose? Does life feel unmanageable or overwhelming, leaving you feeling angry, helpless, or stressed? Are your relationships strained? If this sounds familiar, you are not alone. If you are age 16 or older and experience symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma, or secondary trauma from work or caregiving, then I can help. You have strengths and resilience that we can uncover together, in a compassionate and supportive relationship.

If you or someone you know is struggling with a mental/emotional health issue I want you to know that there is hope. Mental Health counseling (psychotherapy) has been proven to help people recover strength, hope, wellbeing, and a sense of purpose/meaning in life for people suffering from mental and emotional struggles. My approach in helping you involves establishing a trust relationship and a safe therapy environment. While being supportive, insightful, and a good listener I will help you learn who you are, help you discover the source of your pain and help you learn to move beyond that pain.

Hello, I value good customer service and so I am doing in-person only. My clients appreciate this. It is the only way, I feel, we can spend quality time together. Healing the inner child is a process that combines work on the mind, body and spirit. If we focus only on one aspect of this process, we are continuing to neglect that which has brought harm to us. We are only healing one half or one third of our whole being. Being brave enough to consider psychotherapy is a step toward choosing to become a better person, (or partner) choosing to heal or nurture your soul.

Life is not always easy. If you are struggling with feelings of anxiety or depression you are not alone. NIMH studies show that 43.5% of the US population will experience at least a mild anxiety disorder sometime in their lifetime. In my experience, I have seen that there are countless factors that contribute to our mental health. My focus is on the whole person. Together we will explore your biography as well as your biology. We will unpack your life story to discover a path to feeling healthy and strong again. I would consider it a privilege to listen.

There is a curious habit that I've noticed, especially when working with teens, that clients will mostly only work on the "issue of the week." This can have numerous benefits and can also delay the client's progress on any underlying concerns or patterns. Ideally, once a client has agreed to their treatment goals, they continue to take attainable steps towards that goal in therapy and in their daily life. When a client feels comfortable with their therapist to share their thoughts, emotions, and vulnerabilities, then deeper work can happen.
