Do you struggle with ongoing patterns of behaviors and/or thoughts that you know aren’t helpful, but you can’t seem to change them? Perhaps you’ve even been to therapy before, but the patterns continue. You didn’t “failed” at growth or healing, you just need a different approach to addressing core issues. I take a modern therapeutic approach based in neuroscience, offering alternatives to old, outdated, traditional talk therapy in order to create long-lasting changes. I work with individuals who are feeling stuck in life, have anxiety, depression, shame, trauma, complex trauma, relationship problems, and faith crisis.

Many people come to my office saying: "Nothing ever changes in my life"; "I'm not good enough"; "I work so hard! Where is my success?"; "Why can't I get along with my partner?"; and, "I feel so alone." In each of these settings, I use a fun-loving, real and powerful approach - using evidence-based therapies and effective interpersonal skills - to validate, accept and support my clients in achieving their goals. I do this by teaching them skills to enjoy their life and relationships, and regulate intense physical, spiritual, mental, and/or emotional thoughts and behaviors.

Opening up and being vulnerable can be a challenge for all of us, especially as we begin to find ourselves. We all need someone in our corner cheering us on, who is also willing to shed light on our parts that may be holding us back. I am a clinician focused on embracing and celebrating who we are, while identifying areas for growth. There is no greater privilege than witnessing a client transform into someone who loves their authentic self. Adolescence and young adulthood are times for exploration and growth, I look forward to meeting each version of my clients.

Do you find yourself struggling with self-defeating thoughts, sad and anxious feelings, and behaviors that don't seem to bring you much joy? Do you feel stuck? Well, this can happen to anyone, even therapists. (And it's important to work with a therapist who has done their own therapy.) There's no shame in getting help. It's a sign of being real with yourself and a sign of strength to reach out for help.

I believe everyone has what it takes to find joy, peace, and love in their lives through vulnerability and connection. After working through my own trials, I discovered that I wanted to help others and decided to become a therapist. I found a love for listening to others and trying to understand how their stories have shaped their view of themselves and the world. I enjoy connecting with people by encouraging them to explore new ways to find happiness within themselves and their relationships.

I have a caring approach, and rely on proven cognitive-behavioral methods (CBT), focusing on you as an individual or as a couple. I specialize in the treatment of stress and anxiety, which sometimes present in the form of overwhelming anxiety, panic, anger, OCD, PTSD, or depression. After careful evaluation of you and the challenges you face, we together begin a goals-oriented approach to life change and relief of the symptoms that can be so difficult to experience. Therapy means both finding solutions and change, and we set out on that journey from the onset of therapy.

As a therapist, my approach to therapy is deeply rooted in the power of human connection. I believe that the quality of our therapeutic relationship is the cornerstone of healing and growth. You can receive therapy from (almost) anyone, but the sense of trust, warmth, and comfort (or sometimes discomfort) you experience with a therapist can be the deciding factor between significant change and desired positive growth. In my practice, I'm dedicated to nurturing a safe and empowering space.
