Why am I feeling so overwhelmed and stressed out? Why do I keep finding myself in the same unsatisfying relationships over and over again?

Depression, anxiety and problems in relationships often cause deep anguish and pain - just getting by each day is tough. We often struggle alone believing things will never get better. Friends and family urge us to just get over it, but sometimes that makes it feel worse. You need someone to talk to. In the safety and privacy of our offices, you will have your therapist's unwavering attention, devoted to helping you untangle the mess that exists in your life. Together, we will help you change what you thought was unchangeable but also accept what you thought was unacceptable.

Humanistically trained and solution focused; Therapy is a journey where together we will move away from focusing on the "problems" that are identified/exist and work on finding and maintaining solutions.

Welcome, and thanks for taking a moment to review my Psychology Today profile. More importantly, hoping you embrace this moment, and acknowledge your tremendous courage in taking this next step in your journey. Perhaps you’re immersed in a strong emotion, or any combination of: pain, fear, anger, shame, guilt, envy, jealously, joy. Perhaps you’re in the process of a major life adjustment: Moving from your family-of-origin home and on your own; exploring sexual identity; new job, old ‘stale’ job; work-related stress; relationship challenges; adjusting to a ‘new normal’ after injury, physical illness / surgical procedure; aging.

No one should be alone in their struggles. Helping others to discover peace and fulfillment in their lives, I partner and work with individuals, children/adolescents, couples, and families. I help equip clients with the necessary tools to overcome tough experiences that life can bring including anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief, and more. I would be happy to take a collaborative approach and work together with my client to create a tailored treatment plan, and ultimately reach mental, emotional, and relational health.

Therapy can be a life-changing and empowering experience. It is a courageous step towards personal growth, self-knowledge, and self-acceptance. I offer a non-judgmental and confidential space for you to explore your feelings and personal issues at a pace that is comfortable to you. I use a mix of different therapeutic techniques including cognitive behavioral therapy, psycho-dynamic approaches, mindfulness, and many others.

Many of my clients feel stuck or have reached an impasse in their lives that they have not yet been able to find a way around. Many feel frustrated, or even doubt that it will get better. Many are feeling overwhelmed with chronic stress, feel exhausted, and keep pushing themselves to pull through. Many, understandably feel they have to do it themselves and know of no other way of being. I find working with these strong individuals to be the most rewarding, as I feel honored to witness their meaningful process unfold.

Is this your first time seeking therapy? Or do you have previous experience working with a therapist? Either way, I want to warmly invite you into a safe space to explore whatever is bringing you to therapy and to work toward bettering your mental health. In our work together we could tackle issues related to life transitions, relationships, building self-esteem, learning tools to better manage stress, anxiety, or depression. I have experience working with various mental health diagnoses and age groups including children, adolescents, and adults. I also work with LGBTQ+ individuals and provide care that is gender affirming.

I believe one of the most courageous steps a person can take is to embark on a journey of self-reflection. Understanding one's own story is crucial in comprehending our present selves and shaping the individuals we aspire to become. It's important to acknowledge that this process is ongoing, as our stories continue to unfold. In facilitating your personal growth and development, my aim is to assist you in strengthening your self-awareness and equipping you with the necessary tools to navigate life with enhanced clarity and purpose.

The cornerstone of my practice is a simple but incredibly vital one: providing empathy. I will listen to you and work to truly see and hear you. We all have different, unique stories and it’s so important to honor those in our therapeutic work together. By better understanding your story, I can then assist you in breaking down the challenges you’re facing into more manageable pieces so you don’t have to feel defined or limited by them. I will also guide you in recognizing your own strengths and work actively with you to develop healthy coping strategies to better manage your anxiety, depression, everyday stress or life transitions.
