Narrative and Person Centered therapy will help you look within yourself to construct a new you and give you back the power and the strength you are looking for.
Do you want to take ownership over your life and regain your power? Are you ready to learn how to be vulnerable and find your inner strength? You are brilliant and resilient, so your story does not have to end the way it began! As a clinician, I believe it is important to meet clients where they are in their lives and assist individuals who have a vision of where they see themselves going. I want to be your copilot as you construct a new path for your life. If anger, anxiety, fear, your past, or depression are weighing you down, I want to help you carry your weight.

A new mom navigating the beautiful yet trying journey through postpartum, desiring to regain a sense of self and identity while adjusting to a new baby. A young adult woman, starting out on her own, struggling to keep her imposter syndrome and anxiety at bay. A mom of three littles seeking to heal her own hurts to grow and thrive, nurturing her own mental health and breaking cycles for her kids. A college student learning how to manage her stress level and find balance amidst her busy schedule. Wherever you are on your own path of womanhood, I see you, and I want to help support you.

Awesome! You've made it to this moment. Its not easy to start looking for a therapist but now that you've been clicking on a few profiles you're probably figuring out what vibes for you and what doesn't. My individual and group services focus on adults and adolescents struggling with substance use issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, stress reduction, and transitional/life challenges. This is not stuffy therapy. I've been known to swear from time to time (when appropriate of course!) and been told my style is warm and compassionate, offering an interactive setting for understanding, growth and healing.

Are overwhelm, grief, rage, shame, etc. natural responses to living in systems that are often inequitable and unhealthy? If you feel taken over by such emotions, caught in behaviors that don't seem to help, or perhaps feel trapped in your own life, I would love to work with you. I am an anti-oppression practitioner. So, I want to work with people in a way that helps them see that they are inherently good, in spite of layers of social and cultural conditioning that may make them feel otherwise. Together we'll deconstruct the power dynamics at play in your life, and consider the multitude of factors that have created who you are.

Life can be a series of ups and downs. I believe that learning to find space for both is key to navigating life’s journey. I find true joy in helping individuals navigate the in-between while gaining understanding of the twists and turns. A strong therapeutic relationship is essential to a human beings’ growth and discovery through the therapeutic process. That is about meeting others in the field of honesty and vulnerability, connecting beyond what is said and sharing what is deep within. My goal is to create a safe space where exploration and growth are possible.

So many of us feel like we are stuck in certain ways- whether it be stuck in our patterns of behaviors, our overwhelming emotions, our reactions, our relationships, or any other way we may be feeling stuck. I want to work with people who feel like they are stuck and aren’t sure where to go next. I intend to help people feel empowered and free. I am an integrative, individualist therapist who chooses to see therapy as a process of connecting and moving towards living a more authentic life. The population I work especially well with is women trying to come into their own identity and sense of self.

Men often feel pressure to appear confident & have it ‘all together’, but inside feel like you’re not good enough. You could feel this way in your work, in your relationship, as a parent, or in your various life roles. You might be fed up with not living up to your expectations, feeling insecure or like you mess everything up. Maybe there was a time when you felt better, maybe you’ve always felt this way. One thing you do know is something has to change. You’re ready to challenge those negative feelings. You’re ready to feel lighter. Most importantly, you're ready to feel confident in yourself and your relationships again.
