Alongside you, I commit to building a space that can be durable enough to hold against the most violent storms of anxiety, depression and loss, yet, remain tender enough to hold the realities of a wounded heart, a confused mind and a tender voice. I believe education and understanding are important keys to navigating yourself and those with whom you are in relationship. A genuine understanding of your life through narratives, themes, diagrams and pictures can be the key to a therapeutic process.

Most of my clients have known something is off for a long time. Perhaps it's a persistent challenge to finish projects, a tendency to double-book yourself, or an inability to read a room. Maybe it's the sense that you're working a lot harder than the people around you to make the same progress. What recent research tells us is that ADHD and Autism are up to 300% more common than previously believed. That means a lot of people have been missed, esp. women, AFAB, trans, NB, and POC folx.
I am passionate about working with preteens, teens, young adults, and adults. Seeing clients who are struggling with self-worth, emotion regulation, relationships, anxiety, depression, body image, identity, grief, and more. Clients come to me with all sorts of issues, and we work together to figure out the therapies that can help most. Above all else, the relationship between client and therapist is a healing one that can combat many issues we all face just by being human.
Perhaps with today’s latest challenges you feel out of balance, stuck in some places, and in need of a fresh approach that honors your strengths and personal values. My clients have led remarkable lives, often with a lot of success, but also a lot of stress. The successes may make it difficult to reach out for support. They may have developed substance use issues or other coping skills that are no longer helpful.
Maybe you’ve tried everything. You’ve spent the last of your energy and hope. It feels like depression and anxiety are winning. Or drugs or alcohol are taking over. It’s a scary place to be. And can feel lonely. But you don’t have to be alone. I work with clients in this scary place and am unafraid to step into these challenges with you. You already have the strength and courage to do this. I can help you find your own way to make different choices for yourself and make your situation better.
Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, or meeting a goal and don’t know where to start and are overwhelmed? Talking to me can help you gain confidence, feel more competent, and help gain better coping skills. These things are what can give you help to reach goals and improve your health physically and mentally. You also may need someone to talk to because you need more self understanding or personal growth and you feel stuck. I can help you process emotions and find healing.
Knowing that we can be loved exactly as we are gives us the best opportunity to grow into the healthiest people. I believe therapeutic relationships can help ease worries and struggles and restore hope, even during seasons of immense pain and suffering. Having a place where you can be heard and feel understood is essential to your healing. As our therapeutic relationship deepens, individuals gain insight into what initially brought them to see me.
You're tired. Tired of struggling with the relentless difficulties life sends your way, weighed down by the echoes of past pain and trauma. Tired of feeling like you're drowning in a sea of uncertainty, struggling to keep your head above water. Tired of the endless cycle of relationship struggles, where compassion and understanding break down and intimacy feels like a fairy tale. Part of you knows that you can’t do it alone anymore. It is a difficult, vulnerable, and brave thing to seek support.
Adults with ADHD are often overlooked, under diagnosed or misdiagnosed altogether. Most of my clients find me when their kids are diagnosed with ADHD, and they start to wonder.... What a relief it can be to have an explanation for all the things you may have struggled with in your lifetime!
Often, my clients find themselves in circumstances or environments in which they do not feel understood or seen. The sometimes think no one will ever really 'get' them. This could be because of a lifestyle, religion, or just generally who they feel they are as a person. Many have been afraid to reach out previously. They hope to someday find that one place or person who won't judge them, but rather sit with them through the muck. You've found it. Welcome home.

Always second guessing your comments and over explaining is exhausting. Not knowing what to expect you walk on eggshells questioning what will happen next? Narcissistic-like behaviors include swinging from being caring and attentive to being irritated, demanding and manipulative. We continue to tell ourselves they will change, as we have invested so much time and energy into the relationship. Now, walking away does not seem like an option or maybe you are "done".
Do you want to improve your life and your relationships? Do you want to heal from the past? Do you feel stressed, lonely, lost, bored, or like things "just aren't right"? I have worked with a number of clients, each with a different way of describing what feels wrong. In my practice, I have seen a number of clients learn to address their deepest emotions and desires, and I have seen them improve not only their lives but their relationships with themselves.
I love working with clients who have chosen alternative lifestyles, disenfranchised individuals, and those who face the stigma of being different! Facing stigma, prejudice, and judgemental ideologies can be traumatic. Getting the help you need, from a Psychologist with 25 years of experience working thru these issues will be a comforting and enlightening journey. I also specialize in trauma recovery and Adult Children of Narcissistic Parents. I am a PsyPact Psychologist and able to practice in
I believe relational psychotherapy helps to restore hope and connection, even during seasons of immense pain and suffering. Having a place where you can be heard and feel known is essential while working through heavy feelings, emotions, and thoughts and processing difficult experiences. As therapy deepens, individuals I work with gain insight into presenting symptoms and patterns of behavior that initially brought them to see me.
My heart work is helping people feel secure, especially humans with complex trauma.
