I currently am only offering Telehealth. I am passionate about helping individuals thrive in life and overcome barriers that have been keeping them stuck preventing vitality and abundance. Every person is unique, which means I work personally with you to understand who you are, what goals you have and what you are looking for in therapy to help your life get back on track. My hope is to offer a safe space for you to accomplish this by gaining a deeper understanding and awareness of yourself. These understandings come from evidenced based depth models including psychodynamic, attachment based, and behavioral therapies.

Are you feeling "stuck" or "shut down"? Perhaps you're feeling like you are on a never-ending "hamster wheel" and are having trouble making sense or finding purpose in your life. Maybe anxiety or depression are preventing you from engaging with yourself and the world in the way that you would like - more connected, more open and less "closed off." I can offer a safe space for you to process these and more life issues you are facing, freeing you from the burden of bearing them alone and perhaps learning new strategies to cope with life's stresses. Normally you're pretty good at overcoming obstacles but are finding it challenging.

I counsel from a place of compassion and inclusivity and strive to create an environment in which all feel welcome. I work with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties, as well as those who have experienced trauma and complex trauma. I am passionate about holistic mental health, using practices that are both evidenced based and integrative.

Growth and healing is often a process of rebuilding a sense of self, self-worth, shifting patterns and creating new, healthy ways of thinking. Whether you experience anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or struggle with a history of trauma, we can work together to find your path to freedom and happiness. As a multi-modal therapist, I use an array of interventions and tools, partnering with you to achieve your goals. Deep healing takes a lot of courage and I commend you on taking the first step!

Please call or text. Email is not preferred. At certain points in our lives, we may need a helper to identify previously unnamed forces that affect our quality of life/relationships. My repertoire includes offering basic skills for emotional regulation to working with deeply held beliefs and ineffective thought patterns.

When you sit with me, expect safety, relationship, and information in co-creating with you your healing path.

I provide counseling for a wide-range of challenges including: anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, gender and sexuality, self esteem/self worth and relationship issues. I am a relational counselor and prioritize collaboration and empowerment in my work with my clients. Additionally, I often work with those who have been impacted by trauma and I have specialized training in trauma-specific models of care for both acute and longer-term recovery supports. I embrace a social justice/anti-oppressive framework that values equity and inclusion in the therapeutic process.

I believe every client can reach an ideal state of mental health. Clients can expect to experience mental, emotional, and spiritual health in a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space. In addition, clients can expect to find compassion, comfort, and forgiveness for personal and relational pain. A client who struggles with fears, anxiety, loneliness, depression, or other mental, emotional, and spiritual struggles can expect support, help, and resolutions. Through a collaborative and therapeutic relationship, clients will discover for themselves the power, freedom, and beauty of their true-selves. There is always hope.

I believe trust and belonging are the basic needs of individuals. How one learns to love and be loved tells a lot about who we are as people and how our relationships develop. I provide therapy for individuals, couples, and families, thereby hoping to provide change to the system, and not just the individual.

I believe that healing is an attitude that is available to everyone and comes from within, which often needs coaxing and cultivating. Healing is not necessarily a state of perfect physical or mental health but is a range of positive adaptations that can be taught and learned. I use a person-centered approach, collaborating with my clients to work towards healing the whole person and improving their quality of life. I enjoy working with individuals, families, couples, adolescents, and children on a variety of different issues. I look forward to walking beside my clients with compassion and empathy, as they explore their own path.

Working with a wide range of tools to draw on, I help you become your best & most true self. We will explore your defense mechanisms, projections and other thought processes that no longer serve you. Building on the strengths you have and your own abilities, we work together to uncover your best self. By treating you with respect and developing a relationship based on authenticity and trust, we work together towards growth. I want everyone who leaves my office to know their innate worth and value.

Are you seeking compassionate and expert guidance for your journey towards healing and growth? I am here to help.

Seeking counseling is a responsible way to take care of what matters most. As Toni Morrison told us, "It's good when you've got a woman who is a friend of your mind."

I also focus on loss, grief, anxiety, depression, adjustments to changes, life stages, and the promises and pitfalls of pursuing an authentic creative life.
