I practice with the belief that that therapy can be a rich and vital exploration into understanding the deepest parts of our selves: the parts we like and the parts we wish to change. We all have unconscious patterns that can get in the way of living the life we want. These patterns can manifest as anxiety, depression, phobias, physical illness or pain, addiction and even rage. These symptoms can affect relationships, work, self esteem, creativity and sexuality. Change is possible when these patterns can be expressed and understood in an open and accepting space.

Life just doesn’t line up with what you hoped it would be. Despite looking like you’ve got it together on the outside, you feel anxious and depressed on the inside.. You’ve lost yourself in the midst of trauma, a diagnosis, loss, or life transition. You can’t shut your brain off. No matter how hard you try, you struggle with worry, rumination, guilt, and feelings of worthlessness. The negative self-talk leaves you feeling alone and afraid. This affects all aspects of your life. Your world feels like it’s getting smaller and smaller, and you don’t know where you fit.

As a clinician, it is important for me to utilize approaches that assist individuals with having a deeper and more meaningful connection with themselves and the world around them. In my practice, I utilize a person-centered, strengths-based approach, where the focus is to work collaboratively with clients in identifying their needs and accomplishing their goals.

Sometimes life is hard! If you are experiencing anxiety, difficulties with motivation, feelings of isolation, or depression, you don’t need to manage it all on your own. Having the support of an experienced, caring, and authentic professional may help. Together we'll explore situations, patterns, and behaviors that may not be working for you. Considering your values and priorities, we will work collaboratively to develop a plan to help you feel more satisfied with life. I work with individuals aged 17 and up on a variety of issues. I am able to work virtually in 43 states, and I provide ADHD assessments for teens and adults.

Managing life can feel like an uphill battle at times. The challenges it brings often causes us to pivot in ways that impact our growth mindset and emotional well-being. My approach is to offer a therapeutic space where we can explore the many avenues toward emotional healing together. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Instead, I tailor my methods to build a strong, collaborative working relationship within a non-judgmental environment. I like to incorporate shared experiences and use respectful humor to establish a foundation for meaningful change.

You've spent a lifetime making sure everyone else is okay. Let's make sure you are too. You're the one who holds it together. Who shows up, figures it out, and keeps going, even when you're depleted. You've probably spent years making yourself smaller, more agreeable, more useful, just to feel safe or loved. And somewhere in all of that, you lost the thread back to yourself.
I work with adults who are ready to stop abandoning themselves- people pleasers, burned-out caregivers, and survivors of narcissistic abuse who are beginning to understand that the exhaustion they carry has a name, a history, and a way through.
