You deserve to feel strong, confident, and beautiful- but for many women and teens, anxiety, depression, or trauma can lead to feeling lost, misunderstood, or stuck in negative patterns. Maybe you aren't who you used to be and want to find your inner strength and confidence to build positive, healthy connections. You want to manage stress without feeling completely overwhelmed and find strategies that actually work to reduce sadness and anxiety. If you're looking for some guidance on how to get there, give me a call. At Connections, our clients find success in learning to trust themselves and make choices they can feel good about.

I enjoy working with young adults and emerging adults who are navigating the many transitions, pressures, and questions that come with this stage of life. Many of the clients I work with struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, body image issues, and disordered eating or eating disorders. Whether these challenges feel new or long-standing, my goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. I am a good fit for clients who are looking for a therapist who will truly listen and offer empathy, while also empowering them to work toward meaningful change—at a pace that feels right to them.

I am a licensed mental health counselor with a passion for helping people find contentment in life. I've worked extensively with those struggling with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and trauma. Through these experiences, I have learned that establishing a genuine, trusting, and welcoming relationship is integral to recovery. I use a person-centered, trauma-informed stance to facilitate healing.

Quality of life suffers when you feel stressed, judged or used by people who are important to you. You look away from that emotional pain and cope - at home, at work, and in the world. In the process, you lose yourself and your dreams. If that's you, counseling can help. Most likely, there are patterns you are repeating. And, even if the people in your life are stressful, there's a reason you have those people in your life, and there are ways you relate to them that you can change. You can feel better. I can help.

Research has shown that people don't learn from people they don't like. Effective therapy evolves if the person seeking help likes the helper and experiences the helper as empathic, humble, competent, humorous and caring. Therapy is a respectful, mutually active endeavor between the helper and the patient in which the client feels comfortable, safe, and confident. Constructive therapy gives clients hope: that they will experience increasing well-being; that they will enhance their quality of life; that their social relationships will improve; and they will feel greater congruence between their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors.

As a clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience, I specialize in working with individuals, couples, and families who have been impacted by complex trauma. We are shaped most profoundly by our earliest and closest relationships, and when those relationships have been fraught with chronic adversity – either due to neglect and abuse, or due to unintentional or unavoidable life adversity – we tend to struggle emotionally, behaviorally, and interpersonally with the impact of early life trauma exposure. Treatment is most effective when one is able to find a safe space to identify the root of those struggles.

In my 30+ years of experience as a therapist, clinical supervisor, researcher, educator and writer on complex trauma, I have come to believe that we are shaped as much by the good things that went missing from our lives as the bad things that happened to us. My clients have often endured severe abuse, neglect, oppression, and other forms of life adversity. They have learned to cope and survive in ways that get misunderstood and misdiagnosed, and that can cause profound stigma, shame and social rejection. Their courage and resilience inspires awe. Finding a therapist who can see and accept all parts of them is one key to recovery.
