Many of us struggle with feelings of insecurity, anger, anxiety, and sadness. We may find ourselves wishing that relationships with our families, romantic partners, or friends were more fulfilling. Sometimes the struggle to decipher how to live a more fulfilling life can be a lonely one. If you feel this way, know that you are not alone and there is help. After working as a therapist for over a decade, what I have found is that no one wants to live a "less than" life, yet many do not know how to live any differently.

I believe that we are all our own best experts and advocates. As such, I approach the therapeutic relationship from a place of deep respect for client’s needs, strengths, and personal goals. As a clinician, I prioritize bringing a calm, peaceful environment to sessions – by instilling a sense of safety and unconditional acceptance, we can work collaboratively through life’s challenges. I have experience working with adults and older adults with a variety of care needs. My areas of focus include depression, anxiety, trauma, aging, LGBTQ issues, substance use, and caregiver support.

I understand how difficult it can be to take the first step in seeking treatment. I have extensive experience in guiding my clients through change and growth. Depression and anxiety occur across all ethnic groups and walks of life, however these challenges are very responsive to psychotherapy. Individuals with a history of abuse or other adverse childhood experiences are more likely to need assistance in adulthood. I work with clients to decrease symptoms and create improved emotional health, allowing them to move forward with their relationships and life goals.

My practice has evolved into helping clients who are or have experienced traumatic events that are causing problems in the present. Through my experience, I have discovered that traumatic events appear to be the point of origin relating to dysfunctional relationships and ineffective coping skills. Often unsatisfied relationships began in childhood with a significant caregiver from whom we never felt fully accepted or unconditional love. We go through life with an unfulfilled need to connect with others & our basic need to belong. Instead of contentment we feel that something is missing resulting in a void.

I embrace the belief that each of carries within us the capacity for healing, growth and the recovery of our original birthright for wholeness. My work is intended to facilitate and cooperate with what is already "wanting to happen" with-in each of us. I seek to address early damage, emotional deficits and developmental traumas that can block our capacity for full aliveness leaving us consciously and unconsciously locked into coping patterns that often inhibit our becoming all we can be and celebrating the gifts that are our true essence.

Every day feels like a rollercoaster of worry, and you’re stuck in a cycle of seeking relief in distractions? You’ve poured everything into helping loved ones, only to hit a frustrating wall? Your mind is a battleground of conflicting thoughts, making decisions and changes seems not worth the fight? Tasks pile up, and the idea of starting to tackle them is overwhelming you? Wearing a mask, even with yourself, becomes a necessity to feel somewhat okay? Strong emotions trigger panic or self-harm, and the pain or numbness feels easier in the dark places? Things you used to love no longer bring joy, and even laughter feels empty?

Are you ready to be more vulnerable but aren’t sure where to start? Have you found yourself struggling to share honestly with those around you? Or maybe you’ve tried sharing more of yourself with others, but you aren’t sure where you belong or if others will accept you? Our families can have a big impact on how we show up in our adult relationships. Cultural messages often impact how safe we feel to be fully ourselves. Shame and guilt can hold us back from experiencing intimacy and connection with ourselves and others. Together we will help you heal from any past wounds so you can feel more aligned in the present.
