Life throws all kinds of challenges at us. Some are happening now, and some happened in the past but have not been resolved. Whether you are walking away from an abusive situation, coming to terms with your identity, or working through childhood trauma, you could use a guide. You may be facing the death of a loved one, or grieving other losses. Maybe you are struggling with emotions that feel out of control, but you don't know why. Or, after a positive change in your life, like becoming a parent or finding a healthy partner, you find yourself unhappy. When life becomes too painful or you're just plain stuck, therapy can help.

Hi there, I'm a child therapist. If you're worried about your child because they are suddenly full of tears (or full of rage), let's work together. You're likely the first to notice a shift in your child. Maybe they seem out of control, the parenting skills you've used up to this point aren't working anymore. Families I work with are struggling at school drop offs or can't stand another yelling match with their teen. If your family has changed, because of divorce, a move, a death, I'd love to partner with you and provide support and direct guidance to return your home to a peaceful place again.

I support individuals seeking therapy for trauma, anxiety, relationship struggles, OCD, depression and parenting struggles.
My office will be a space where you can feel comfortable and safe. Therapy requires vulnerability and sitting with discomfort. With me, you'll receive a lot of compassion and support. My expertise in processing trauma, as well as the coping skills I can teach you, will benefit your life in a positive way, if you choose to implement them. Do you ever have “big” reactions to things that don’t necessarily fit the situation? Does it get in the way of feeling confident in yourself or your relationships? That is an exhausting experience.

Dealing with the challenges of parenting is hard enough.
As an agency we have been supporting people via online sessions, with everything that falls “outside the box”. If you are encountering relationship problems, you may have found that it is easier to procrastinate rather than to seek the relationship advice and tools that you need. You may have even been waiting to seek consulting or coaching services for years. Meanwhile your relationship difficulties have only been getting worse. Our consulting services are designed to help you communicate better and make sustainable changes that will benefit you and your family throughout your lives to come back to loving one another.

My treatment specialties include perinatal mental health, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, grief and loss, Anxiety, Depression, couple's counseling and parenting.
Do you feel alone and unbalanced, like you’re spread thin without relief in sight? Do you feel guilty for not feeling the way you “should”? Have you lost hope? Stress and despair around issues such as pregnancy loss, infertility, pregnancy complications, birth trauma, unplanned pregnancies, postpartum anxiety and depression and the transition to parenthood often go unaddressed, leaving women and their families feeling disjointed and alone. It's time to break the silence and reclaim the hope you deserve. Your story is unique and warrants individualized attention as you work to rebuild in a safe, supportive environment.

Being a teenager can be tough. Being a parent of a teenager can be even more so. Because this is such an intense developmental period, when you realize you need some outside help, finding the right person can be tricky. Over the past sixteen years, I have connected with teens, young adults and their parents to help them find their way to stronger relationships and a solid sense of self. I help teens and young adults with addiction, eating disorders, anxiety and depression, communication and life skills, family relationships, trauma, social media anxiety/isolation, and more.

I believe therapy is for everyone and that finding the right therapist is key for progress and recovery. Our lives are full of emotionally traumatizing experiences relating to family, rejection, shame, self hatred, regret, breakups, divorce, difficulty with parenting, grief & loss, transitioning beliefs, and many other aspects of unprocessed and undisclosed pain. I would love to be a supportive environment for anyone who commits to growth no matter their values, religion, preferred & identifying gender, sexual orientation, race, and/or ethnicity.
