I treat depression and anxiety. These symptoms might be the result of current circumstances in your life, or might emanate from earlier painful or traumatic experiences. I listen closely to your story, and through supportive, careful exploration, we work to increase your understanding of yourself and of the causes of your symptoms. We then build on this to reduce symptoms and help you create positive change in your life. In my experience a warm and accepting therapy relationship, where you get to be seen and heard as you, can be transformative. I also prescribe medication when needed.

Sometimes when we reach a place of safety in our lives, paradoxically symptoms can emerge, growing louder, calling our attention to care for ourselves in a new way. Maybe you feel stuck in the past. Or too busy worrying about the future to enjoy your life today. Perhaps you're bone-tired, overwhelmed, out of alignment, or don't feel like yourself. Or from the outside things appear great, you wonder: why am I still a mess inside? Part of you feels ready to set down whatever pain burdens you. Let's get curious about that. If you're in WI, MN, or IL considering a new approach to your mental health, I would love to be a resource to you.
