I believe in the power of connection. Psychologist and researcher Brene Brown says, “A deep sense of love and belonging is an irresistible need of all people. We are biologically, cognitively, physically, and spiritually wired to love, to be loved, and to belong. When those needs are not met, we don’t function as we were meant to. We break. We fall apart. We numb. We ache. We hurt others. We get sick”. Through the course of counseling, we will work together to identify, repair, and restore the areas of ‘disconnect’ in your life, so that you may once again reap the mental and physical benefits of this fundamental human need.

How did I get here? How do I get things back things back on track? Through counseling you will find the tools to challenge problematic behaviors and thoughts patterns and resolve them. I have skill and experience working with adolescents as young as 13 and adults. My main areas of clinical expertise include substance use, gambling addiction, anxiety, adjustment to life transitions, depression, bi-polar, self-esteem, relational issues, Borderline Personality Disorder, stress, imposter syndrome (career issues or phase of life issues), women’s issues, sexuality issues, coping skills, codependency and family conflict.

My practice offers treatment that is individually created for your specific needs and issues. I am devoted to creating a safe and caring environment to support your emotional, physical, spiritual and psychological well-being. I focus on guiding individuals toward health and healing using modern clinical practice, holistic therapeutic approaches, mindfulness and mind/body techniques. Our model is based on a functional medicine approach which seeks to identify and address the root causes of psychological conditions and medical illnesses using a strength-based approach that treats the whole person, not a collection of symptoms.

You are seeking relief... from anxiety, life transitions, unresolved trauma, work or relationship struggles. My clients often come to me in distress, riddled with questions, searching for new approaches and coping skills. Perhaps you have tried different perspectives and some have worked but stresss and anxiety, doubt and questioning settle in again. Regardless of the reason, life brings with it obstacles and challenges that can feel like you are stuck.

The GOAL: TO THRIVE!!! Making Connections, with family, friends, and most importantly, with yourself. Too often the results of depression, anxiety, addiction, or any difficult life circumstance can lead to a lack of motivation, and isolation, which can hinder us from enjoying life the way we were mean to. Therapy is a process of personal discovery. Identifying personal strengths and utilizing them to facilitate Motivation and Change to reach your personal goals.

We all experience struggles and challenges as we move through life. I honor the incredible courage it takes to seek help and take this step towards improving your life.

You don't have to remain anxious, depressed, confused or paralyzed in relationships or life. I believe deeply in the profoundly transformative and enduring nature of psychotherapy. When we're feeling stagnant, overwhelmed or alone in our suffering, therapy can help us to untangle our emotions, clarify our struggles, and better understand ourselves and others.

I strive to provide therapy with the qualities I would want as a client: the ability to provide space to feel comfortable and supported, cultivate mutual respect, suspend judgement while walking side by side through dark moments, and share honest and compassionate feedback. I aim to listen and point out areas of your story that are important to be attentive to. In fact, as your therapist it is my responsibility to act as a detective for your feelings, thoughts, ideas, and emotions. These qualities have shaped my areas of specialization, including EMDR for trauma as well as general therapy for anxiety, depression, and grief/loss.

I provide therapy to adults struggling with a range of problems and focus on grief, health-based concerns, trauma, substance use, anxiety, and depression. I believe in meeting clients where they are and creating collaborative treatment plans that correspond with your values. My role is to guide and support as you intentionally move toward your goals. I believe we all have the skills needed to find our purpose, and I can help along the way.
