I focus on life transitions and challenges. Those times of life that can stir up anxieties, depression, uncertainty, prior or current traumas. When grief is heavy and we take on the monumental task of building new meaning and purpose. This territory is often unchartered and scary and we need a place to express, settle into our feelings, hold the floor down. I welcome everyone with compassion, absolutely no judgement and I can stand, or sit with whatever you are struggling with and find a path and support you on that path.

Struggling with sleep problems is a lonely and frustrating experience. Most people suffer for much too long or feel stuck with medications they'd rather not take. Fortunately, whether you’ve had insomnia for a few months or decades, you can overcome it without medications. In fact, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is the first line treatment that the American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends, typically taking 4-8 sessions to complete.

My goal is to help people create effective, satisfying transitions in their lives. I believe we all have inherent strengths that we can tap into to meet our goals and get through the difficult times in our lives. It can be incredibly helpful to work with someone to identify and work through the barriers that exist between our current situation and where we would like to end up in life.

Struggling with depression or anxiety? Breaking patterns is hard, but you know you want change and meaningful redirection. Painful memories and recurrent conflict can strain relationships. Work stress gets in the way of being present and feeling fulfilled. People often work with me to get things moving when they feel blocked or stuck, to develop calm where uncertainty has them off balance. Our work will reveal insight to restore stability, address trauma, and change outlook towards realizing an improved sense of self. Together we can work to identify and harness strength, addressing challenges with new clarity and inspiration.

I strive to make everyone I talk to feel heard, respected, and comfortable in sharing with me. I remain attentive to my clients' needs while using a little bit of humor and positivity along the way. I approach therapy as a team effort in which we both learn and work together on the client's goals of choice. I'm most skillful at helping people understand their emotions better, processing changes in their life, and seeing themselves in a more strengths-based way.

You may be someone used to figuring things out on your own, but you’ve run out of ideas or want a fresh perspective.
