Overwhelmed? Anxious? Irritable? Depressed? Stressing over finances, job, relationships? So many people are struggling but you reached out for help. Taking this first step is the hardest. I would like the opportunity to help ease your discomfort by providing a safe and comfortable environment. No judgement here. Together we would work on the issues you are struggling with. I feel people are more resilient than they feel. I am active in the therapeutic process by providing feedback. Change is always possible. I am no longer working with couples or children.

As humans, we all experience seasons of change; these seasons can feel empowering and exciting however they can also feel disorganized or unexpected. If you are experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression, pregnancy related concerns, or other life stressors and/or transitions; I am here to help. Our time together can be a space to not only identify root causes of negative thought patterns, self-doubt, and low self-confidence but to then work towards independently navigating these experiences. My goal is to provide therapeutic, non-judgmental support and guidance as we explore both vulnerability and strength.

I believe that we all need to have a sense of purpose or meaningfulness in our lives, something that our thoughts, emotions and life experiences contribute to the "heart" of our personalities. The process of healing from the challenges of life begins with a search for truth about our beliefs, habits and relationships. Physical health is affected by our mental health through the complex interactions between the brain and bodily functions.

Sometimes overwhelming challenges or changes can feel as though they’ve taken over our lives. All too often, rather than seeking the compassionate care we deserve, we try to bear the weight of our circumstances alone, which can lead to compounding feelings of self-doubt, fear, and isolation. I draw from a broad range of therapies to help heal the parts of you that are in pain. My integrative approach draws from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Mindfulness, Attachment Theory, Polyvagal Theory and Motivational Interviewing. With these proven methodologies in my toolkit, I collaborate with you to make meaningful change.
