I enjoy my work as a psychotherapist even more today then I did when I started over 20 years ago. There is so much power and insight that comes from a truly authentic relationship between therapist and client. You, the client, can then take what is learned in the safety of the therapeutic relationship out into the world full of Other relationships and feel equipped to navigate them in a way that is aligned with who you are. Whether it's your self as a mother, daughter, brother, or son, there is meaning to unfold in everything you do.

Life can take us on an unexpected journey. Sometimes it brings an exciting adventure, and other times it leaves us feeling anxious and out of control. Do you find yourself wishing you could get "back to normal" or wondering how to cope? Many of my clients seek therapy because they want to feel like themselves again. Trauma, loss, and other life transitions are painful, but difficult experiences don't define who you are. We all have the inner capacity for healing and growth.

People who are deemed "unique" or "different" often see themselves as misunderstood. This can lead to many different issues such as isolation/loneliness, anxiety, depression, anger, stress, self-esteem issues, behavioral issues, and many others. The teenage and young adult life stages can be especially tough.

It's become a struggle to express your needs to the people you love. Some days, it feels like you are repeating the same conversation or conflict over and over again. You feel stuck and vulnerable. I understand what you are going through. Relationships can be challenging, with twists and turns that create anxiety, confusion, and discouragement. This may not be what you expected and it can be difficult to remember what it’s like to feel excited and satisfied. I want to help you find the way back to a more fulfilling and healthier relationship. There is a way forward.

Every parent dreams of raising their children in ways that enable them to not only survive, but to thrive. As life unfolds, parents may encounter personal difficulties, or problems related to their children, that compromise their ability to provide consistent, responsive care. They may then be susceptible to feelings of overwhelm, discouragement, and/or guilt. I accompany families, individual adults, and couples with kindness, warmth, and compassion. With a gentle but steady eye on strengths and resources, I respectfully join with them in the belief that "We are in this together, and together, we will find our way through."

Does your mind like to remind you of all your past mistakes- rehashing old hurt and replaying what you could have done differently? Do you find yourself living in threat, weighed down by the sense that something awful is headed your way? Does the idea of feeling safe and secure with who you are seem impossible? Take a moment to reflect on what it might be like to not be bogged down by all that background noise. How might things be different for you? What would it be like to live flexibly with your thoughts and respond in kindness to your suffering?

Each person is an individual and that means your treatment will be unique to your strengths and needs. I enjoy working with clients who find themselves in the same problematic patterns over time, are looking something new, and are curious about learning more about themselves and their relationships.

It takes courage to ask for support. Coming this far is a victory in and of itself. You’re in touch with yourself enough to know that you need something to change, although you may not be certain yet of what that change should look like. Perhaps you need a shift in perspective during a difficult time. Maybe you need to learn to cope with challenging emotions. Perhaps it is your child who needs help and you need help learning how to help them. Whatever your need, you deserve an empathetic and dedicated guide to join you on your journey. You don't have to do this alone. Currently taking clients intermittently.

And there are times when life is really hard and we need a safe place to process challenges and rediscover our direction in life. I strive to create a warm, caring space where a collaborative dialogue can happen to create an individualized therapeutic approach. My therapeutic style leans on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and includes Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR and mindfulness, with a little yoga thrown in periodically.
