Do you find it hard to relax and be yourself with your loved one? Do you anxiously try to “fix” things when conflicts arise. Or do you tend to shut down when feeling overwhelmed by the intense emotions? Perhaps you fall in love quickly and tend to idealize your loved one? Or you crave intimacy but want to flee when it feels too close? Maybe you are dealing with an impact of infidelity and feel stuck in resentment. Together we’ll look into your mirror and explore how you get in your own way. We’ll meet your blind spots with compassion and explore what is in your control to change or accept.

The stories we tell ourselves are very important and often they are stories that others have told us or placed on us. I believe that there is power in taking back our story and living the truth that aligns with the core of who we are. I believe that you as the client are the expert of your life and I get to be a part of empowering you with the tools you need to navigate hardships and struggles.

Let's be honest, navigating life as a woman can sometimes feel extremely difficult. Maybe you’re a people-pleaser and feeling pressure to live up to everyone’s expectations. You’re smart, ambitious and did everything the “right” way but are left wondering, now what? You feel stuck in your head and your emotions feel too overwhelming to manage. On the outside, things look picture perfect, but you’re on the brink of falling apart on the inside. You want to live life on your own terms but anxiety is holding you back, and you don’t know where to start. Does any of this sound familiar?

My goal is to create an environment for my clients where change and healing can happen. Many of my clients come to me because nothing else has worked and they're ready to give up. Whether I am working with a a couple trying to stay married or considering divorce or an adolescent struggling with self harm, I believe clients can surpass coping, heal from trauma and thrive. And, I believe that challenging marriages can grow into healthy connected relationships.

I love collaborating with clients, watching them grow, and witnessing the breakthroughs they make. We all struggle at some point in our life, and often we have to carry burdens of the past, whether it comes from our families, past relationships, past trauma and/or adversity. Everyone should be allowed a safe place to explore life's challenges and determine solutions. Everyone is capable of change, but sometimes we just need a little help along the way.

Your life looks accomplished and successful. Yet you still feel that you are not good enough. Your chorus of what-ifs keeps you questioning yourself. You give your best to others but don’t feel appreciated. You feel tired and overwhelmed. It is time for a change.

As we navigate our lives, we are faced with life transitions. These changes can trigger anxiety, depression or other feelings. Often transitions can challenge our existing belief systems, which in turn, cause confusion and feelings of distress. Having someone who can truly listen and understand these challenges often helps us find our way to a more satisfying life. Sorting through the clutter of our lives and zeroing in on our true selves can help us optimize our happiness and contentment. Living a life in which we thrive not merely survive.

Starting my career in 1993, I have worked with individuals from all walks of life. I believe that at the core of every human being is the desire for growth and self-discovery. We are each born unique, and yet we spend our lives being told by others how to live and behave like everyone else. Over time, the process of forgetting the authentic self leads one to experience emotional distress that is uniquely personal. Whether dealing with life changes, relationship issues, or disabling mental illness, working with a competent psychotherapist can facilitate the process of overcoming obstacles and developing a more fulfilling life.

Life is complex, and it can also be overwhelming. You may feel stuck, or as if you are caught between two, or more, strong forces pulling you in different directions. I believe therapy can be a potent, collaborative process in which we can work together to untangle the different components of your concerns, to sit in tension with these components without becoming overwhelmed, and to restore peace in your life. I enjoy working with all issues affected by social identities, such as gender and sexuality, and I specialize in men's issues.
