Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or stuck and unsure where to start? You may be juggling work, family, relationships, or past experiences that feel heavy and hard to manage alone. Therapy can be a space where you slow down, feel heard, and begin making sense of what you’re carrying. Building a strong therapeutic relationship is central to my work. I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where you feel comfortable having honest conversations about the difficult or uncomfortable topics. Together, we will identify your goals and develop strategies to help you move forward in a way that feels realistic and empower.

Do you ever feel that you're living in the past? Do the thoughts, memories, and dreams keep coming back? Do you always feel that something bad is going to happen? These are some of the affects of trauma. Others can include panic attacks, anxiety, depression, and sleep disorders. Unfortunately we can't talk (or logic) our way out of our body and brain's response to trauma, and often we leave talk therapy feeling like we're spinning our wheels. There is good news: we can help your brain and body heal from the trauma so that the past can STAY in the past. Healing is possible, and I'm excited to work with you

Do you spend your days taking care of others? Who is taking care of you? You may be a healthcare professional in a nursing home, hospital or even physical therapy office. Each patient comes with their own challenges that you tackle successfully, and while you don't hate your job, lately each day leaves you tired. There are probably elements of your personal life that are weighing on you, but there's no time to process anything.
Or maybe you find yourself being a caregiver for a loved one, which presents challenges tangled with emotions and relationship history and perhaps grieving the life you imagined.

Sometimes life challenges can leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, unmotivated and not knowing how to move forward and at other times we may just feel stuck. It can be during these times we feel the need to talk to a trained professional. One of the most important steps in counseling is finding someone you can connect with and trust. As a therapist, I strive to create a safe, supportive and therapeutic environment where clients can explore deep personal issues and feel empowered to move in the direction of meaningful change. I collaborate with each individual and tailor sessions to meet the needs of the client where they are.
