Are you feeling stuck? Feeling like life should be more fulfilling and happier? Have these feelings been around for a while, and others don't seem to understand why you feel the way you do? Do you know you want something different but can't seem to create or stick with the changes? Are other people or parts of you making you feel guilty for what you want? Or are others saying you are too needy or sensitive, perhaps religion? Life shouldn't be such a painful or challenging endeavor. Learn to break co-dependency and love yourself. Break the cycle that can result in long-term consequences for your mental and physical well-being.

My primary areas of training are in loss, emotional abuse, OCD, career counseling, DBT, & Gottman couples.
Have you lost your way? Perhaps your life was headed in one direction when an unexpected event changed the direction of your life and you feel alone and disoriented. Or perhaps you are in a relationship with someone that you love that has become mentally abusive and you have lost the person inside that you used to be. Or maybe you have changed over the years through life’s experiences and the career that you once loved no longer fits you and are looking for a new path but have no idea where to start. If any of these stories sound familiar, just know that while you may be lost, you are not alone.

I specialize in trauma and interpersonal violence, identity development, life transitions, mood disorders, and psychological/neuropsychological assessment.
I believe psychotherapy should be a transformational experience. We often get stuck in patterns of relating and being that, at one time, were adaptive and protective, but no longer help us to be our best selves. Psychotherapy helps to understand those patterns, develop strategies to disrupt them, and create new ways of being and relating that get us closer to our personal and professional goals.

What are the most effective ways to recover from domestic abuse?
Leaving an abusive relationship requires tremendous courage, so survivors in treatment should recognize that they have already completed the most important step. Still, the trauma of physical or emotional abuse can be difficult to process and overcome. Therapy can help survivors process trauma, grief, and difficult emotions, treat relevant mental health symptoms, and create a new framework for boundaries and relationships in the future. For some, support groups can also be an invaluable outlet for healing.
When should an individual seek help for domestic abuse?
Victims of intimate partner violence should seek help immediately. It can take substantial time, planning, energy, and courage to leave an abusive relationship, but starting the process—by seeking therapy, calling the domestic violence hotline, or simply confiding in a loved one—will help them get there. Those who have left abusive relationships but haven’t sought treatment can also greatly benefit from therapy to process and heal from the experience.
What are the consequences of staying in an abusive relationship?
Remaining in an abusive relationship has serious repercussions. In addition to the ongoing threat of physical danger and emotional abuse, research shows that intimate partner violence is associated with a range of mental health disorders including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and substance abuse. Therefore it’s important for individuals in an abusive relationship to seek help as soon as possible.
How can you get domestic abuse treatment for someone else?
It can be very complicated to identify and leave an abusive relationship; barriers include the threat of violence, financial instability, and family pressures. Those concerned about a loved one in an abusive relationship should talk to them about the situation, provide them with resources such as the domestic violence hotline, and introduce the idea of seeing a therapist due to their concern for the person’s safety and well-being.
