Does being in love mean being in pain? Are you and your significant other having a hard time communicating or getting your needs met? Are you confused, anxious, sad or angry?

After establishing a trusting relationship with my clients, I work towards identifying their issues followed by setting mutually-agreed upon attainable goals; one step at a time. I personally believe that the success gained by smaller increments builds confidence which eventually motivates us to achieve more. My clients set the pace; determining just how quickly or slowly they want to proceed. While some only need a few sessions a month, others prefer a more frequent schedule. As a tele-therapy provider I offer the security of a private, confidential “office” with the ease of “meeting” you anywhere at times convenient to you.

How long has it been since you truly felt like yourself? Like anxiety didn’t influence everything that you say or do? Since you didn’t feel chronically exhausted from constantly worrying about everyone else?

The things that once brought you joy and fulfillment have vanished from most of your waking hours until you don't even recognize yourself or your life anymore.

Social conditions teach us that pleasure must be "earned", & that our worth is directly linked to our productivity. I am passionate about collaborating with individuals looking to find joy by identifying barriers to pleasure & rest, & developing a deeper understanding of beliefs that contribute to our own discomfort with pleasure. Many of my clients are experiencing a life transition- starting new job, becoming a parent, opening up a relationship, considering divorce. Together we will explore ways to increase compassion & acceptance, & lean into pleasure so that we feel more prepared to better cope with these changes & stressors.

Getting to this point takes a lot of courage. It can be a LOT to try to find the therapist that is right for you. I get it - I’ve been in that seat, too.

So let’s make some adjustments and start you on your way to feeling and living better. Spoiler alert: no therapist has all the answers. Instead, let's find the answers together. Therapy is exactly that - working together. I'm here to guide you along your path and help you in the direction that you want, not tell you where to go.
