Being a student is hard and being a student athlete can be even more difficult as you have so many responsibilities that pull you in various directions. The stress you feel, you do not have to carry. My goal is to assist individuals in overcoming challenges and to reach their full potential. I will help you release the heaviness you are carrying. I believe progress toward individual goals cannot be met by a singular focus on the negative aspects of life, and we cannot build on holes. To reach our full potential, we need build on strengths, release anxiety, and transform our challenging experiences into future motivation and growth.

Being human can be confusing, overwhelming and painful. Despite this predicament, I believe therapy can help shed the feeling of a constricted life and achieve an authentic and empowered sense of self. Through a collaborative and compassion-centered approach, I aim to help hold in a non-judgmental space the challenging parts of life and encourage next steps in your journey. The technique I use most often is trauma-sensitive mindfulness combined with concepts and methods from CBT, DBT and MI while applying lenses such as attachment, familial, cultural, generational and that of global systems.

More adults, adolescents and children are experiencing depression and anxiety than ever before. Family, work, academics, social stress and isolation can affect us emotionally and physically. There has been a significant increase in drug and alcohol use, behavioral problems, medical complications, broken relationships, lost jobs and academic failure. Social media and the internet provide tremendous opportunities but also problems. In person and cyber bullying can cause depression, anxiety, and sometimes worst. Some of us experience severe trauma and develop PTSD. At some time, we all need support. It is never weak to ask for help.

Many people experience times when they feel stuck in some important aspect of their lives, and want to find a way forward that is true to who they are and to the values that matter to them. Being stuck is often connected to unprocessed early experiences, compounded by living in the turmoil of complex and difficult times, and navigating what appear to be paradigm shifts in how we understand what is happening in and to our world. Therapy can provide a way to work towards clarity, and towards building, maintaining and balancing a healthy sense of self, healthy relationships with others, and a life that makes sense and works for us.

In the post-COVID era, so many people are struggling with mental health concerns at levels we’ve never seen before. The elderly, young adults, adolescents, and couples, in particular, have been deeply affected. With all the constant connectivity, accessibility, and information overload, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained. As a mental health provider, my heart is in helping people navigate these challenges. I’m deeply committed to those I work with and take great pride in offering care, understanding, and genuine support as we work together toward healing and growth.

To do so, we will incorporate a blend of somatic and psychodynamic therapies to unpack current, historical and intergenerational traumas.

I am a licensed professional counselor specializing in mental health, relationships, and addiction recovery. I collaborate with young adults, couples, and families to move beyond seeming impasses and engage fulfilled and connected lives. My approach includes identifying the message behind uncomfortable emotions and problematic behaviors, disconnecting from unhelpful thoughts and self-judgements, and exploring alternative perspectives through use of relatable (and often humorous) analogies.

In my practice, I try to help people improve their lives by looking at their relationships. I believe that the ways of relating to others that we learn early in our lives can sometimes prevent us from reaching our potential in current relationships and in creative or occupational endeavors. I help my patients to examine and ultimately change their ways of relating so that they are less depressed and anxious and so that they are more satisfied in their lives.

Hello! I've explored many roles in the last 10+ years working in school, community, inpatient, and outpatient settings. I have found that I enjoy working with people of all ages, but I have a soft spot in my heart for working with the young or young at heart, who are willing to explore the therapy process in creative ways. I love when I can use my training as a dance/movement therapist, and I am also practical and enjoy helping clients accomplish their goals more directly through skills teaching. I have training and experience with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.

I have sought and found so much personal growth through my own therapy and I recognize the strength in having someone there, to bear witness to both the joys and sorrows that are part of living. I want to help you navigate life’s challenges with an open mind and heart and nurture your own resilience. I strive to help individuals better understand their own complex and nuanced stories, with care and compassion. Therapy is a place where the bigger harder feelings have room to breath and define themselves for us; where we can process the past and get excited for the present and future.
