Everyone including me, is going through or has gone through something at some point in their life. And when we do, sometimes we just need a little support, a little encouragement, a listening and caring ear or a little guidance and push in the right direction. We don't want to be judged but we want someone to understand. We want someone who is going to be there for us and support us in making the best decisions for our next step or transition in life. No matter your circumstance, we can and will get through this together and it all starts with a conversation, so let's have one...

In my practice it has been key to identify what values and beliefs that guide an individual in their everyday decisions and actions. Then identify their goals for sufficiency for their ideal therapeutic path and journey. Collectively, the relationship is formed to clearly address from a coaching perspective utilizing interventions that are wholistic yet specific to the individual receiving therapeutic services. My clinical and therapeutic style has been effective in impacting children, adolescents, young adults, individual, woman concerns, and couples in their marital journey.

You are smart, competent, and lovable, but every day is a struggle to trust that this is true. The "should haves" and "what-ifs" pile up before the first cup of coffee, draining you of energy and motivation. It's time to turn the table on anxiety and depression. You deserve the support and guidance it takes to feel strength, clarity and enthusiasm in your life. You've tried doing this alone. Now It's time to get help.

To me, therapy is a precious gift we give ourselves. It's an invaluable tool that enables us to enrich and make sense of our lives. During times of uncertainty, it can help us find comfort and clarity. I believe that human beings have an innate ability to create, know, and love our lives and ourselves. I work with my clients to build a supportive relationship outside the context of their family or loved ones. Together, we explore and seek self-understanding. We use creativity as our vehicle to stay open to possibility even in the most challenging of circumstances.

I believe that everyone has their potential already within them. Because of this, therapy is a place to discover what is possible and to provide the structure, tools, and outside perspective to more consistently bring your authentic self into your everyday. As we grow, we find that the ways we’ve seen and known ourselves no longer work for us, and the people around us change the dynamics in which we operate. Whether it is big life changes and self image issues to sexuality and relationship challenges, we have to take responsibility for our part and direct our effort to the areas where we have influence and control.

As a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I deeply understand that our relationships mean everything: to our family, our partners, our friends, and ourselves. When we are unhappy and suffering, our needs are not being met in a fundamental way. My vision for successful therapy is allowing the space and time to explore those needs. As a therapist who uses systems theory, I might explore the different ‘parts’ of a person's experience with themselves and others in Individual and Family Therapy. In Couples Therapy, I pull from the Gottman Method as well as EFT to strengthen and heal relationships with fantastic and practical tools.

In life, it's easy to stay on autopilot. While there are times when being on autopilot works for us, there are other times when it doesn't. Through years of studying and practicing psychotherapy, I have become highly skilled at helping my patients to stop living on autopilot, and, instead, to start making CHOICES. Psychotherapy is a process of getting incrementally more honest with yourself. As therapy unfolds and you begin to know yourself more deeply, you can start to examine whether you are living the life you want, and if not, how you want it to change.

I help people pleasers, perfectionists, and overachievers learn how to stop overfunctioning and set healthier boundaries. I also specialize in working with BIPOC and queer folks to heal from trauma in a world that continues to be traumatizing. Life can feel scary and uncertain. Fortunately, we do not have to go through it alone.

Family Systems Therapists
Family Systems therapists view problems within the family as the result not of particular members' behaviors, but of the family's group dynamic. The family is seen as a complex system having its own language, roles, rules, beliefs, needs and patterns. The therapist helps each individual member understand how their childhood family operated, their role in that system, and how that experience has shaped their role in the current family.
