In some way, life hasn't turned out exactly as you planned but you're not ready to give up. I've often found that, no matter the diagnosis, the folks I work with feel disconnected, dissatisfied, and struggle to create a meaningful life. You might worry so much about the future that you lie awake at night or miss out on special moments. You're overwhelmed and end up scrolling, numb with food or substances, or can't finish a book. You're keeping up on basic responsibilities but what you're doing isn't working long-term. Life has lost it's vibrancy. You may doubt that you can change and yet, here you are, taking that first step.
I'm here to help move you from "stuck" to "un-stuck." Just like personal training, I'll often give you skills or tools to practice outside of our sessions and together we'll utilize small mindfulness exercises to build awareness and direction. Our work will be based around action that moves you towards who you want to be and the life you want to have.
Let's get to know one another a bit more! Send me an email or leave a voicemail with your contact information and how I could be most helpful. Then we'll schedule a 15min video chat to see if we're the right fit. If we decide to move forward, I will provide intake documents and schedule our first session. I look forward to meeting you!

I work with clients who may be struggling with their internal experiences, like thoughts/emotions/sensations/memories/etc, which can lead to unhelpful behaviors. Typically, we will begin sessions with a short mindfulness exercise and then focus on client-directed goals. Through use of more effective tools and skills, clients will struggle less internally and have better control of their behaviors.

I primarily use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with individual clients, which includes developing a mindfulness skillset. With ACT, we'll practice how to effectively manage thoughts and emotions so you can determine what you want your life to be about. For couple clients, we will utilize the Gottman Method, which includes building a foundation of friendship and healthy communication.
