Feeling disconnected? Not where you thought you would be at this point in your life, right? You might just be waking up in the morning, and have an “off” feeling. Or, maybe it’s the end of the day, and you don’t feel as accomplished as you usually do. Life is a series of events that we, as people, seek to be connected to. Sometimes, it just doesn’t click. So, what do you do? Where do you go from here? That's where I come in. Schedule a free consult with me, and we can figure out a plan for you!

I have a very eclectic background in the field which has made it enjoyable to help many different people. I work with individuals and couples. The services I provide are: anxiety/depression, gender identity and sexuality, and substance use/addiction. I am also sex positive and have worked with individuals in poly/open relationships. I am patient, empathetic and easy to talk to. I like to create a supportive and nurturing environment to help clients feel comfortable while working with me.
It can be hard to cope sometimes in this ever-changing world...Do you want more out of life? Do you want more than what a life coach or an accountability coach can offer? Your treatment should NOT feel like a fast-food drive thru. My specialty is working with neurodivergent clients with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, and/or clients that may process information or their emotions differently.
I know that there are real difficulties that led you here today, together we can find real relief. I will listen to your story & together we will work to resolve your unique challenges, step by step, at your pace. World events have been disruptive, unsettling, & traumatic, & you may be facing new/intensified problems. I excel in aiding adults & teens who are exhausted, down, overwhelmed, irritable, anxious, survivors of trauma/abuse, and/or have problems relating to others. Walk with me today.
I work with women who struggle with blended high/low self esteem. To the outside world, we are successful and have our shit together. Except we are masters at hiding pain. Inside, we have a black hole filled with guilt, shame, and feeling unworthy. We feel stress managing family, life, career, relationships, and don't feel good enough. We explore the beliefs and patterns that impact our daily life. The goal is to free ourselves from our past.
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.

Life can be demanding, frustrating, and tiring. Life can also be unique, experiential, and beautiful. Whether you are healing from abuse or a traumatic experience, struggling with feeling anxious or depressed, or moving through a life transition, it is important to allow ourselves the space to acknowledge both realities of life can be true. Together, we will create a safe and supportive environment where you can explore all aspects of yourself with compassion, curiosity, and authenticity.
Are you wanting to feel happier or more fulfilled? I help many adults cope with depression/anxiety due to trauma or general life stressors. I enjoy supporting clients cope within a high-stress profession as well as caregivers struggling with regaining a sense of self outside of the caregiver role. I have extensive experience in working with adults with cognitive difficulties due to brain related injuries/diseases as well as military veterans struggling with the transition to civilian life.
I work best with clients who have a desire to learn about and explore their relationship with themselves, others, and the world around them to move towards a more integrated and holistic way of being. This may encompass reprocessing past traumas, responding to symptoms of depression and anxiety from a place of compassion, or developing new ways of expressing and sharing one's identity and self. I enjoy helping my clients to become more curious, resilient, insightful, and courageous.
I provide counseling for depression and anxiety; anger and stress management; grief and mourning; interpersonal, family, marriage and relationship difficulties and work-related stressors. I treat children, teens, and adults. I provide individual and couples counseling. Feel free to contact me so we can schedule an appointment.
