The therapeutic relationship is unlike any other relationship because, for many, there are few relationships in life in which you can just focus on yourself. When you feel like you have too much on your plate, therapy allows you to come up for air, engage in meaningful self-reflection, and discover what you are made of and how you can be true to yourself going forward. I am committed to helping you dig deep and do the work necessary to break down barriers, make connections, uncover answers, and build the mental strength you need to gain, or regain, more control over your life.

It takes admirable courage to seek fuller understanding of ourselves and our struggles and to risk new ways of living. I provide a trusting, respectful setting to examine concerns thoughtfully. My approach is empathic, warm, and marked by compassionate curiosity about one's difficulties and beneficial ways to address them. I emphasize increasing awareness of the issues in question and developing coping responses that are useful, intentional, and aligned with one's needs and values. Successful psychotherapy is challenging, rewarding work aiming toward deeper self-awareness, genuine and fulfilling relationships, and consideration of situational factors that contribute to difficulties.

Looking for help is never easy. Especially in these stressful times and if you may well be meeting a new therapist on line rather than in person. Still, life problems can reach a crisis point when one knows they need to reach out for help. Whether or not you have been in therapy before, with the right help you can make real, positive changes in your feelings, your behavior and your relationships, bringing more satisfaction and joy into your life.

Stop and think about it! Do you feel anxious, unfulfilled, or have difficulty reaching your goals? Are you feeling depressed, perhaps experiencing suicide ideation?

Would you like to become more self-aware? Our focus on mindfulness will facilitate your journey of self-realization.

Let me guess.. YOU ARE a badass in your 20s or 30s and you *mostly* have your life together, but something is holding you back. I am sure you work hard on your life goals, but have also been dealing with anxiety, low self-esteem, and some negative self-talk. Maybe you look at social media and immediately feel you're not doing enough with your life (been there!) - or maybe your relationship isn't perfect (been here too)! Maybe you've taken a look inward and realize your mental health needs some help. You've considered therapy before, but that has always sounded too drastic. (Hint: it's not!) I love working with couples and kids, too!
