Life can bring unforeseen challenges. From these challenges growth and resiliency can arise. I offer a holistic, client centered, goal focused approach that invites the inclusion of individual cultural identity and spirituality for psycho-spiritual exploration and development, while offering tools for coping and thriving.

We all experience difficult times in our lives when we need extra support such as experiencing debilitating grief after a loss. I am committed to helping my clients learn how to build a healthier more fulfilling life. My integrative therapeutic approach supports my clients through their difficult times by guiding them with the use of evidence based therapy tools (CBT, IPT, mindfulness practices, and others) individualized to their healing journey. I believe in working together in a collaborative approach to help my clients reach their goals. It is an honor to help others realize that life can be beautiful again.

Welcome! My style is warm and affirming. You will be seen, heard and not judged. I use Insight, Solution Focused Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy amongst others because they put the power back into your hands where it belongs. I work with people across the lifespan to find acceptance and thrive. I support people in finding their voices both literally, via Assisted Technology and figuratively. The traits of Autism, ADHD and neurodivergence can be overwhelming and lead to depression and anxiety. Feeling misunderstood is sad and isolating. Learn to understand your unique neuro-biology and find strategies to achieve your goals.

I hold the belief that positive change is possible when we are supported in identifying and harnessing strengths and building the capacity to understand ourselves more deeply and compassionately. Therapy begins with building a deep understanding of client experiences and goals and collaborating to build a beneficial approach. I have experience providing mental health counseling for a wide range of clients and presenting issues since 2012. In addition to individual treatment, I have completed Gottman level II training to provide evidenced-based couple's counseling.

My schedule is full at this time. Please check back mid to late Sept. Human beings are unique, complex, and possess the capacity for change. Although adversity and struggle can feel overwhelming, can make us feel lost or stuck, our essential selves are not lost and are not wholly defined by depression or angst or trauma or grief. Compassionate, respectful support provides a space to explore, discover, reclaim, change, heal, and grow.

Not Currently Accepting New Clients - Therapy can be a space for us to engage with not only our immediate problems, but what inevitably lies beneath. I think of it as a space for mutual trust and willingness to show up in service of understanding ourselves. It can be in some ways not the easy path as our tendencies to avoid, control or pursue are deeply part of us. When we make the choice to explore an alternative approach to life as we know it, opportunity can show itself.

I believe that every human being has deep inner wisdom guiding them toward the healing of their core emotional wounds. My role with clients is to support them in tapping into that wisdom. Together we will work toward further understanding yourself, compassionately examine your behavioral patterns, and explore possibilities around new ways of being.

Welcome! Making the choice to prioritize yourself and invest in your well-being is a big step and I am glad you're here. I have a passion for and primarily work with women who are looking to reconnect with themselves. Women who are leaders in all aspects of life, be it concurring the school drop-off line, being a boss or managing the day to day. Women who are looking for tools or to develop coping strategies to manage anxiety, life transitions, communication and more. I also enjoy working with healthcare workers in the areas of stress management and identification or refresh of the “why” related to the work that they do.

Working with the thoughts and feelings you're holding on the inside really can help loosen their grip on you. I help people manage things like stress, anxiety, depression, ferocious inner critics and the effects of trauma-- whether recent or experienced earlier in life. We'll focus on finding you some symptom relief in addition to deeper understanding and healing in an open, accepting place for self-exploration and growth.

When you are ready to start the process of change, which can be very challenging, you will be amazed at what you can do. My focus is very interactive. I use motivational strategies as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. A few other things mixed in like narrative, solution focused, coping skills, and other evidence based practices are tools available to help you along your journey. My goal is to help you determine your goals, and help you find the quality of life you've been looking for. If you have depression, anxiety, dealing with major grief issues, and/or PTSD, family relationship issues, then give me a call.

I would love to work with you on the things that hold you back. Reclamation of personal power will be the basis of our work together. We will explore relational systems such as justice and culture, and the role of the self within these systems. By re-imagining yourself as a cherished and sacred part of the whole, you can heal the wounds that have drained your precious energy and afflicted you with false negative narratives. Together, we will find out what your story truly has to tell us, and rewrite it for your benefit!
