Juggling school, a career, a family, and other responsibilities can leave little time for self-care, leading to feelings of anxiety, stress, and burnout.

Just like going to the doctor, sometimes we need an emotional checkup. Counseling is an opportunity for you to work on yourself, relationships, goals, depression/anxiety, ADHD and other issues or diagnoses preventing you from living life as you wish to. Each session belongs to the client--it is your place to focus solely on you. My experience includes eight years of individual and family therapy. Additionally, I have 15 years of experience working with family dynamics in academic, learning disorders and life skills coaching as well as academic counseling.

You having more and more bad days...and it's getting harder to hold things together. Sometimes you have self-doubt, self-hate; other times you feel that no one understands what you're going through.

You may know exactly what you want to change or you may need help in exploring the reasons why you feel this way. In any case, we can work together on a new vision, plan, and way of living for you!

My approach is warm and interactive. I work in an empathetic and inquiring way, supporting you in facing what is difficult in your life and within yourself. It is not unusual for me to incorporate humor, when appropriate. I will always provide you with the same level of respect and dignity that I would desire if I were seeking therapy.

As a psychotherapist, I provide Individual, Couples, & Family Therapy. My mission is to serve clients with understanding, empowerment, integrity & compassion. I am committed to creating positive outcomes and success while promoting growth, multicultural competency, and incorporating principals and providing skills from evidence based practices to assist clients with thriving in their environment and in the community. My purpose is to assist with improving the lives of the clients I serve.

I have a passion for helping clients through difficult life circumstances and transitions. Helping clients improve their health and well-being is my one of my greatest joys and the reason I became a therapist. I have over 20 years experience helping clients with mood disorders, depression, anxiety, trauma and problematic anger.

Trauma is often weaved in and through the fabric of our lives. Many think of trauma as one large scale traumatic event. However, complex trauma is not always a single event. It could be a failed attachment to our care takers, experiencing abuse/neglect, multiple losses, shattered relationships, or the inability to protect ourselves emotionally with healthy boundaries. The most disturbing part of a trauma is not only the event itself, but how we perceived the event, and the internalized negative core beliefs about ourselves that developed.

Are you struggling with understanding why certain events or patterns are happening in your life? Whether it's with relationships, personal life events, or even just the day-to-day things, it can sometimes be difficult for us to see ourselves with 20/20 vision. This is where I can help. By carefully examining the past, working mindfully with the present, and aiming at the future together we can break patterns, change perspectives and grow emotionally.

A relationship seldom gets better on its own, but we often “hope” that it will. Don’t wait until you loose hope to seek relationship counseling, or counseling for any other issues you may be facing. The longer you wait, the more difficult each day can become. Self-help books often generalize, and medication often fails to deal with the cause of the imbalance. With counseling, I provide a personalized examination of your issues so that you may learn how to overcome them and create a life of relationships and experiences that you will greet with great enthusiasm.

Sometimes, we find ourselves on an unfamiliar road and traveling towards a frightening future. We fear what may lie before us because the road is dark. Going back is not an option; going forward is strange and fearful. We feel stuck, lost, lonely--and hurting. If this is your experience, you don't have to navigate the journey alone. Sense the possibility of someone coming along side you who is gifted in the art of healing, someone skilled and compassionate.
