Feeling hopeless for the state of the world? Current events have left so many of us feeling hopeless and powerless about the future and how it will affect not only us but those we love as well. Regardless of what anyone tells you, you matter and have value no matter how you choose to identify and express yourself. You are valid and so is your pain and frustration. If nothing else, you deserve to work through whatever you want in a non-judgmental environment.
You're grieving a loss that seems unbearable right now. Your life has immediately and drastically changed as a result of the loss. You feel like you can never come up for air when these "waves" hit you and knock you down hard. You turn toward others so they can witness your grief, sometimes offering their own opinions that don't make you feel heard and validated. You might sometimes feel like you're not understood and questioned "why you're still grieving" this loss.
With my therapeutic lens, I see the best in my clients. I see their strengths and where they are working to improve. I do my best to understand where they are coming from and meet them where they are. So, when we have sessions together, know that you are getting someone who is on your side. Even in family or couples sessions, nobody is the bad guy. The problem is the bad guy. We work as a team. We are all allies in tackling this conflict that is making you feel disconnected and frustrated.

I specialize in working with clients who are struggling with trauma, boundaries, anxiety, relationship issues, & life transitions. Many of my clients identify as people-pleasers or express difficulty putting themselves first. Some feel they have lost themselves in their work or relations, or find themselves being their own worst critic. Together, we explore the past experiences, emotions, and thought patterns that may be getting in the way of living more authentically &aligned with their values.
Because my 30+ years of counseling experience has privileged me to know people in many settings and from all walks of life, my practice reflects that: Clients come from varied backgrounds & experiences. I see Adults only, and as a systemically trained therapist, I consider relationships important even when I'm seeing clients only in individual sessions.
I work with patients that span the age range from 6 to 100. Beyond medication management, I use a blend of therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (for anxiety and depression), Exposure Response Prevention (for OCD), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (for Trauma) and Solution-Focused Therapy (for immediate improvement and better outcomes).
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.
