Not accepting new clients at this time. You've only known yourself through labels. Someone's child, parent, spouse, friend, employee, a student, etc. However, beyond those roles, who exactly are you? You now realize that your entire identity has centered around other people and external validation, which has led you into developing poor boundaries, a tendency to people please, and self criticism. Everyone is content with the current version of you...except you.

People pleasing and perfectionist tendencies leaves us drained, resentful, and disconnected from who we are at the core. You may be fed up with the pressures and expectations of doing “all of the things”, feeling stretched too thin or wish you had the inner strength to make yourself a priority. You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to commit to the change. You’re ready to kick self doubt to the curb. Most of all, you’re ready to embark on a journey towards peace and purpose.

Finding the therapist for you can be taxing to say the least. Still, there is the right therapist for you. Therapy, while not widely accepted by everyone, has managed to become a cultural norm. However, normalcy is not enough. You should find a therapist that you can connect with, respect, and receive a quality and professional experience from. Everyone needs help, be it to process the past, balance the present stressors of life, or deal with crippling anxiousness that can come with planning for your future.

Making the decision to seek counseling can be a tough one for many. Therapy is a process where you can learn, grow, and heal in ways you did not expect. Do you feel you struggle to be your true authentic self in the spaces that you occupy? Finding it hard to create and maintain boundaries with those closest to you? Maybe your own thoughts and feelings of stress and anxiety are hindering you from reaching what you feel is your full potential? My goal, as your therapist, is to help guide you through this process of self-discovery and healing.

Life presents us with many unexpected challenges that can leave us feeling hurt, lonely, anxious and stressed. Maybe you are struggling with insecurity, uncertainty or a lack of direction. In times of distress, it can be difficult to share with anyone, let alone someone you’ve never met. Building a relationship is the most important step in the counseling process and hinges on empathy, respect and safety within the therapy office. Healing happens when we feel fully accepted while being vulnerable and authentic. This can only be achieved through a strong therapeutic alliance. In this space, you will be welcomed, heard and supported.

Through a collaborative person centered approach it is my hope you will learn to access and engage your inner strengths to combat life challenges.

I firmly believe that mental health struggles don't define a person indefinitely; rather, they mark a chapter in a larger narrative. The healing process is a testament to the human capacity for change and renewal, emphasizing that mental well-being is a dynamic journey rather than a static state. I work with individuals who are determined to undergo this journey, are ready to take charge of their present, take back their power from the past, and create a future of abundance. I don’t believe in being “stuck” forever. Neither should you. Currently seeing teens 16+ and Adults 18+.

Seeking therapeutic support is a step toward healing and growth. It shows that you realize you don't have to walk alone and you are ready for change. I want to be that person that walks alongside you on your journey toward balance. We all need someone to talk to that can be a mirror, help us illuminate areas in our lives that may be hidden or unclear, and share skills that we can use to enhance our well-being. I have a heart for those dealing with life transitions, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, career issues, grief and the effects of past trauma.

Sometimes, it seems there isn't anyone to call. No friend can articulate a plausible explanation, alternative, or direction for what you are experiencing. The loneliness you feel on the inside, no matter how many people are around you daily, leads you to feel isolated even when you are a part of the crowd. Even when you do try to express, it is difficult for you to open up as the depths of your distress make you consider and reconsider how much you should share. You feel like you cannot come up with the answer and you're tired. All you desire is perspective and progress. All you want is to feel adequate, competent, and accomplished.
