While working primarily with children, I noticed the same underlying unmet needs that continue to manifest in my adult clients. Abuse, trauma, unmet needs, feeling unseen, unheard, or misunderstood in childhood affect the way our brains develop. This includes the lens in which we perceive the world around us and to understand our role in it. Understanding yourself, healing your inner child, feeling your emotions, and navigating relationships are crucial for creating and nurturing your inner emotional strength, resilience, and health.

I enjoy working with individuals to help them uncover patterns of behavior or thinking that are interfering with their personal growth. By addressing the underlying issues that are creating problems, you will be able to create lasting change and transformation. I welcome clients working through life issues that can be challenging and difficult. In addition to individual counseling and coaching, I also offer couples and family counseling and coaching where we will work together to develop a functional system that will serve your individual needs.

“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen” Brene Brown. I believe reaching out for counseling support takes courage as it leads us out of our comfort zone. Finding a supportive counselor is an important first step in the counseling process and I base my practice on being a supportive and non-judgmental partner to help you navigate through difficult times.

"What people really need is a good listening to." --Mary Lou Casey. In these "chaotic" times more than ever, I see clients who are struggling to deal with added uncertainty on top of the usual difficulties of life! This stress, in the form of disrupted relationships, family and parenting concerns, and financial/job concerns, contributes to more anxiety, anger, depression, substance use. I like to offer clients a safe, productive space in which to feel comfortable to explore and develop some strategies to move in a positive direction. I strive to develop a good "working" relationship, built on mutual regard and respect.

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
