Is your tank often on empty? Do you notice that something needs tending to? Maybe it’s relationships, depression, chronic burning out, or past events that continue to show up in your life— therapy can be valuable in building the life you want. My priority is to offer a safe, nurturing, and respectful relationship. I hope to support you with goals of feeling more whole, more joy, and more at ease. Healing can be a powerful force when someone feels heard and seen.

Sometimes simply living life can leave you feeling overwhelmed, and constantly asking "why". Effective counseling offers you the opportunity to confront those insecurities and negotiate that maze of "why" emerging to feel empowered and secure. Are you experiencing depression, anxiety, issues at school or work, grief or trauma, perhaps substances are ruining your world or you need a Impaired Driving Assessment on which your independence and freedom can rely. I can help you and you can take back what uncertainty and fear have claimed. I have over 20 years of mental health and addictions experience in both inpatient and outpatient environments.

Anxiety, while a pretty general term, is a vivid mental and physical experience which has a big impact on the size and depth of a person's life. I like helping here. Helping to open up space for a life directed by what's important, not what's to be avoided. I am best suited to folks who are seeking change and are willing to try any-darn-thing if it will improve the inner and outer life. Not everyone is ready to seek change. But you’ll know if that's you. If you're 17 or older and would like a little more magic and meaning in your life, less restriction and worry, I'd like to help you find that.

Do you feel overwhelmed? Are you burned out? Do you feel that you're giving everything you have to everyone else? I believe we all need more balance in our lives and therapy can be helpful in restoring that balance. We will identify the current stressors and work together on developing additional healthy coping skills. We can find what may be missing in your current lifestyle. I believe in an integrative and holistic approach because “one size does-not fit all.”

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, BPD, suicidal ideation or have been a victim of domestic violence? I have experience coordinating crisis interventions and employing Dialectical Behavior Therapy with patients who harm others or themselves, and particularly those who have experienced violence within their family network.

I view therapy as an opportunity to think outside the box and become creative about how to build a bright future for those who may feel stuck. I strive to create a space for healing and growth to help you reach your goals towards a path of fulfillment and happiness.

Are you struggling to get back on track? Have you felt like you’re treading water and can’t stay afloat?

This will help us journey to a heightened understanding so you can take the necessary steps to live a more fulfilled life.

Perhaps you’ve noticed feeling more anxious or depressed lately, but aren’t sure why, or what you can do to feel like yourself again. Perhaps you’re struggling with relationship tensions, feeling stagnant at work or find yourself just more generally in a rut. You may be feeling well overall but want to get a grasp on certain issues in your life. Now might be the right time to break free of those patterns and explore other ways of thinking, feeling and being in the world.
