Life does have many stressful issues like loss, relationship dynamics, family conflict, work concerns, divorce, and medical crisis. These types of stressors greatly influence our ability to cope with our everyday responsibilities. My focus in therapy is to identify your current stressors and how they can either be resolved or develop the ability to decrease the severity of symptoms. Together, we will develop goals and steps tailored to you. I primarily work with couples with a Gottman based approach. I am also able to treat adult mental health issues regarding depression, anxiety and I welcome the opportunity to work with you!

I specialize in depression and anxiety, communication skills, couples counseling, grief and loss, single parenting, career counseling, and chronic illness. As a Resident in Counseling, I tend to use aspects of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as we work together to help clients see immediate connections between their thoughts and their current actions. This often allows for acknowledgement and change to occur sooner, and clients can experience the satisfaction from the results of their hard work.

When a person realizes that self awareness is the only long term solution, they will seek only to understand themselves. No longer do they seek to blame the outside world for their thoughts or feelings. My ideal client is one who seeks to do the work to evolve . Together we start the journey to locate the "inner" barriers that may be holding you back. We do the work to gain control of your thoughts and feelings that are keeping you feeling "stuck". Lasting relief comes from learning techniques which are less about problem-solving and more about letting-go of old beliefs and habits. Know thyself and the whole world changes!

Distressing experiences change the way the brain and body process the world around us. As a result of this change, the nervous system becomes dysregulated. Therapy provides a warm safe environment to explore your thoughts and feelings. Together we will focus on using evidence-based treatment methods based on Neurobiology to assist in affecting holistic and lasting change. Some issues I am skilled in include anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, women’s issues, and relationship difficulties. My approach goes beyond the distress experienced within and extends further into thriving in community and harmony with others.
