I have been helping clients of all ages, races, and backgrounds live more fulfilling, rewarding, hopeful lives for as long as I can remember. It was natural for me to become a psychologist and make my mark on the world by doing exactly what I loved to do. Although my clients continually tell me how much they are helped by therapy, I can honestly say that I am the one who is truly changed by helping others. No matter what your difficulties are, I can assure you that you will be changed in some way by entering therapy. There is no difficulty too great or too small to work on in therapy. The only constant in life is change.

Is your child or teen or young adult struggling with anger, anxiety, trauma or depression? Are you losing hope and unsure where to turn to help them?

More Than Just Talk....... If you haven't been in psychotherapy before, you may not realize that the traditional approach to treatment is to educate the client about their conditions and teach them how to change their own feelings and behaviors. Although this approach can be very helpful, it is usually a long process that depends a great deal on the individual's courageous persistence. Moreover, a change in behavior and belief does not necessarily resolve the history of negative experiences fueling such things as depression and anxiety. These are some of the reasons I offer "More Than Just Talk".

I strongly believe that all people have the ability to live their best life when given the opportunity and the right tools for them. Each journey is just as unique as the individual who embarks on it. The work I do with clients is person centered, motivationally driven, and tailored to meet the needs of each person no matter where they are on their therapeutic journey. Whether this is your first time seeking therapy, or have decided to try again, I would be honored to meet you where you are and guide you toward reaching your personal goals.

“I don’t know who I am anymore”. “I used to be so happy”. “Why is being healthy so hard right now”. “When did it become so hard to get out of bed”. Some days you find yourself asking these questions. You don’t know when it happened, but you barely recognize the person in the mirror. You don’t feel like yourself. You feel lost, stuck and overwhelmed by the little things. You feel guilty because you struggle to be present at your job, with your partner, or your children and family. You want to stop "just getting through another day". You are ready to take your life back. You are ready to thrive.

Many of us are overwhelmed with our responsibilities: work, taking care of loved ones, family, keeping our bills paid, starting out in life. It goes on. Current work culture, social media, and influencers bombard us with messages to keep "hustling". We feel guilty and selfish if we take time and put ourselves first. If you are this essential to keeping the gears moving, shouldn't you be maintained? Keep pushing and you will eventually break down. When you break down, guess what? You won't be any good to those you do all this for, you may even become a burden. Maybe self-care isn't something we should feel guilty of then.

I enjoy working with individuals of all ages and feel very comfortable addressing any life-span issue or transitional concern. I also enjoy working with young adolescents as well as young adults addressing issues related to anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. Working with a variety of age groups, including adults; allows me to maintain up to date clinical skills as well as having a better understanding to all life stages. Regardless of what difficulty you may be facing, the first step to change is the awareness that something doesn't feel right. This awareness is usually the first step to the possibility of change.

Hello! I provide a non-judgmental space where you have the freedom to discuss your thoughts, emotions, and other important aspects of life that cause suffering and leave you feeling disconnected and distant. My experience is that therapy, while sometimes uncomfortable, is an enjoyable experience where we focus on growth and not spend all our time spinning in circles while experiencing more pain and suffering. I believe that truly effective and holistic counseling should not only focus on reducing symptoms, but it should also help you experience more joy while living with a sense of lightness and freedom.

We develop strategies early in life to ensure our safety. As adults, we often find these strategies are no longer effective and often harmful. As a survivor of complex trauma and a family history of generational alcohol & substance abuse, I believe individuals can and do recover. My personal journey led me to pursue a career helping others to overcome the baggage of their past.
