My particular focus and experience is in anxiety disorders, depression, stress-management, trauma, relationship issues, parenting concerns and women's issues including postpartum issues .
I am committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space for my clients. I see my role as helping people identify self-limiting beliefs, emotional blocks and other barriers that keep them from leading lives consistent with their authentic selves and their values. I combine theoretical and psychological insights with more pragmatic skills training (relaxation, conflict-resolution, communication skills). I have an active, direct counseling style that combines genuine empathic listening with therapeutic challenges.

I'm also passionate about addressing women's issues and fostering self-compassion.
We all can get stuck at times. Trauma, life stressors, uncomfortable emotions, and relationship concerns can throw us off balance. Maybe you feel constantly stressed, disconnected from your partner, or the impacts of trauma. The weight of these challenges can take a toll on your daily life. You might feel ready to process your trauma and find healing, or perhaps you're motivated to deepen your connection and improve your communication with your partner. This is where counseling can offer support and relief, empowering you to find ways to process and cope with your specific concerns and life stressors.

I specialize in working with women's issues including codependency, recovery from narcissistic abuse, self-esteem, transition to parenthood, and postpartum mood and anxiety disorders.
Are you currently in a relationship where you're not happy but can't seem to get yourself to leave? Maybe you feel emotionally stuck or confused and have tried leaving only to return to the same unhappy relationship where nothing seems to change. On the other hand, you might feel that you keep entering into relationships in which you are treated poorly but can't figure out why. Perhaps you're dating and finding "the one" seems impossible. You feel sad and disappointed, no one seems to understand, and you don't know what else to do to make things better. I'm here to tell you that things can change and I am here to help!

Do you have difficulty trusting your experiences and navigating how the world perceives and treats you? Are you struggling to feel comfortable in your body? Many of us learn to think and behave in unsustainable ways in order to stay safe in an unaccepting and marginalizing world. If you are struggling to break free from patterns that helped you survive in the past but are keeping you from thriving in the now, you're in the right place. I help LGBTQ+ individuals, couples and women build self-compassion and body-awareness to better understand how trauma is holding them back.

Feeling unhappy in your body? Feeling like you are using drugs and alcohol to cope with life? I specialize in working with women and adolescent girls who are experiencing struggles around body image, their relationship with food, and substance abuse. So many women don't feel comfortable in their own skin. Food, drugs, and alcohol can be a way to cope with this experience. As women, we receive a wide variety of messages about who we are vs. who we should be. Holding onto these messages is at the root of many struggles in our daily lives.
