Therapy can be intimidating and easy to push off due to mounting fear, anxiety, shame, finances, etc. Thus, I want to begin by commending you for taking this step; it is a big one. As a counselor, I walk alongside my client in their journey towards a deeper sense of insight, self-acceptance, self-empowerment, and healing. I approach counseling by meeting each individual/family where they are at, focusing on the here and now, and tying together the past/future/present such that healing can occur. My background is in supporting LGBTQIA+ teens and families, working within complicated family systems, and assisting intrinsic growth.

Dear Prospective Client,
I'm writing to you about the idea of starting therapy with someone new, especially someone that you don't know. First of all it's important that you feel very comfortable with that person, like you can talk openly about anything. You want to feel safe. It's hard making that first step, but you can do it and besides it can be really beneficial to your life.

You deserve to be having the best days! You know that something has to shift, but not exactly sure what that is or how things will change. Your emotions might be inhibiting you from feeling empowered, confident and clear in your decision making. I would be honored to support you in gaining perspective through a style that is direct, down to earth and focuses on a collaborative approach. I believe that life is a series of transitions, some more challenging than others, and that there is no reason to proceed solo.

I understand that beginning therapy can be overwhelming and I take pride on my unique ability to connect and build a therapeutic relationship with my clients. I believe that finding the “right fit” of therapists is one of the most important factors in the therapeutic process. I specialize in working with teenagers (and their families) who are struggling with Depression, anxiety, low self-esteem/self worth, impulsivity, rebellious/defiant behaviors, poor family relationships, self harm, and negative peer relationships. I have a reputation for being able to connect with even the most challenging or guarded youth in our community.

Calling all "imperfect perfectionists" in need of some relief! As a recovering perfectionist myself, I know first-hand how much distress we can create in our own lives. We hold ourselves to high (sometimes impossible) standards and often feel we are falling short. Anxiety and depression can follow - along with feelings of shame and guilt that we aren't as "good" or happy as we should be. It doesn't have to be so hard! We can work together to help you find joy and contentment by creating a loving, compassionate relationship with yourself.
