Are you struggling with thoughts, emotions, memories, grief, loss, trauma, stress, anxiety, depression, panic, anger, feeling stuck, or worried about your relationships? My therapy practice is based on a belief that everyone has a unique history with many experiences that shape and transform our ways of being and interactions. Each person is beautiful and whole with a powerful story. So many factors impact our development, how we see ourselves, and how we relate to one another. Sometimes it can be difficult to know who we are, who we want to be, or how to take the next step.

Are you ready to overcome the belief that something is wrong with you? Do you struggle with: low self-esteem, dis-empowerment, creating healthy relationships, setting boundaries, self-compassion, or self-care? These issues are common in our society today- there is a collective belief that somehow, no matter what we do, we are intrinsically flawed or broken. We have traded the sacred truth of our own experience for self-aggression, self-judgment, and self-loathing, and we feel miserable.

I help people who struggle with problems that they feel are impossible to change, understand, or even think about. I work well with individuals who are sensitive and creative, and need someone to help them understand what they've been through and how it impacts them in the here-and-now. In my experience, doing this kind of work with someone you trust offers the best hope for lasting change. I don't work well with people who want to be "fixed" without coming to know themselves better in the process.

Are you stuck in repetitive, unhelpful relationship patterns, impacting various aspects of your life? Together we can work to uncover the roots of what is happening. These behaviors often stem from a desire for safety and connection but hinder growth. Yet, everyone can evolve and thrive. Through collaboration, we can work together to understand the causes, paving the way for healthier relationships and a more satisfying life. I offer a safe space for exploration, whether in-person or through telehealth sessions, with evidence-based tools and approaches such as EMDR, EFT, and relational psychodynamic therapy.

We all can feel stuck from time to time. Whether it's a relationship issue, a career issue, or challenges with depression or anxiety, we can find ourselves repeating the same patterns. I help people understand the patterns of their lives and how to move beyond challenges and towards fulfillment. I started my counseling practice in 2006 with a mission of helping people get unstuck and step into their power to create change in their lives, relationships, and communities. I believe that social change starts at the individual level and that we can all be powerful agents for change in our own lives and in the larger society.

My approach to Mental Health Counseling is to view the client as expert in their own life. I do not play the role of expert in my client's lives. I do, however act as a guide, advocate, educator, and support person. What I will do is attempt to see your issues from your perspective and your view of the world. I work within the framework of Person-Centered Therapy, which focuses on the client being the expert, Existential Therapy, which focuses on behavior and looks at how the client thinks, feels, and behaves and the impact they have on others.

My approach is based on the idea that current difficulties are rooted in unresolved feelings, thoughts, conflict or coping styles from the past. I help people understand the patterns in their lives and connections to the past so that they can live more effectively in the present.

I work with teens, couples, and adults. I believe that psychotherapy offers unique possibilities for healing and growth. The first step in therapy is to understand your needs and develop an approach and plan that will help achieve your goals. I will listen carefully and thoughtfully to you. This opens up new ways of approaching problems. Working together lightens the load.

Boundaries, communication, self-advocacy are my specialities with adult clients. Many of the clients I see begin therapy with a good amount of insight into what's going on with them but uncertainty and confusion over what to do about it or what to change. Many struggle in their social or romantic relationships, managing work related stress, or say they feel depressed, stressed, or sad. Often, they may be doing very well in one or more areas of their lives but struggle to feel their best in another area.

Just about everyone experiences difficult times in their lives. Sometimes these are temporary, such as during or after a life transition, and sometimes these are more chronic where we become stuck. Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, work or school concerns, or something else, I imagine you are seeking help because you are not feeling the way you wish to feel. I also imagine that you have hope that it can get better.
