I often see clients are hesitant to begin therapy for fear of needing to tell their life stories. This isn’t my style; I am much more interested in what is happening here and now. The details of the experiences that have happened previously will reveal themselves as needed throughout the therapeutic process. In therapy, my clients drive the bus and I simply help navigate them through the experience. I believe the therapeutic relationship between client and therapist is one that is built on trust and collaboration, which takes time to develop. My goal is to provide the type of therapeutic environment that my clients are looking for.

Welcome to my virtual practice! Are you experiencing panic, anxiety, stress or depression? Perhaps you feel stuck and are not sure why? With your goals driving the session, I can help you become more aware of the thoughts, feelings and behaviors causing your concerns. I utilize a Cognitive Behavioral framework to help explore the cycle of unwanted symptoms that you are seeking to help change. I also help clients explore the biological connection to their emotional health, as our body symptoms provide valuable information that we often ignore.

In therapy, my number one concern is creating a safe space for my clients to express themselves, whether it’s through art therapy or talk therapy, or maybe a little of both! I have found that once my clients feel comfortable and supported by me, they have been able to begin making exciting strides in their awareness of themselves and thus, make important changes to enhance their quality of life. My goal is to guide clients through their journey to their own self-discovery and gather the tools suited for their personality to successfully address life’s challenges.

Anxiety and stress are normal reactions to life's challenges. Anxiety can help us focus on solving problems or achieving success. But when anxiety begins to spiral and take over, it can be paralyzing, negatively affecting our relationships, school/career performance and mental and physical health. If you are experiencing chronic worry, panic, obsessive fears, social anxiety, stress at work/school, or marital difficulties, I can help by teaching you proven strategies to conquer your symptoms by changing negative thoughts and unhelpful behaviors. You will learn more effective coping techniques, gain back control and focus more on living a productive, happier life.

Feel like there's no one there to listen or like no one will care about what you're going through? Maybe talking to your friends or family is not an option, so you keep holding on to the hurt and the anger. This could lead to feelings of sadness, lack of motivation, sleep trouble, anxiety, etc. Perhaps you think that if you see a therapist, s/he may be judgmental. As an experienced therapist, I've had the honor of working with many clients, who usually view me as non-judgmental, caring, and emphatic. Let this be your time to tell your story.
