My focus is to help others to "become emotionally fit and live life."

I provide telehealth psychotherapy from my home office, with a compassionate, strength-based approach, incorporating Mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioral therapies. I have particular experience and interest in serving clients with anxiety, depression, addiction issues, co-dependency issues, and chronic pain. On your initial visit, you can expect to be listened to with empathy, and feel heard. During our first few sessions, we will work together to discover the pathways and strategies that can bring more hopefulness into your life. Lucid Lane provides a comprehensive telehealth solution for pain, mental health, and substance use.

I specialize in trauma recovery and couples therapy. So many of us have grown up in toxic and dysfunctional family systems, where we experienced chronic shame, abuse, neglect, and/or abandonment. The survival skills we developed in childhood to cope with family dysfunction and toxicity no longer work for us in adulthood; however they become the skills we rely on when our intimate relationships experience conflict and stress. Healing trauma wounds and creating secure, loving bonds with our partner is possible and transformative.

Do you struggle with insecurities and fears about the future? Are you or your children trapped in behaviors that you can't seem to get control of? It's my passion to work with people in building self-esteem and self-confidence, as well as teaching coping skills to allow one to gain control of their behaviors and their life. I love working with teenagers and their families to help navigate through the changing world by learning to communicate and understand one another better, in addition to addressing any anxiety and depression that you may be suffering from.

I believe that difficulties, hurts and pains do not have to immobilize my clients but can serve to transform their lives into deeper meaning and fulfillment. I understand that talking about deep hurts, struggles, fears and secrets can sometimes place people in a vulnerable and uncomfortable place, so I seek to provide the safest environment to help my clients feel open and safe. My areas of interest lie with counseling adolescents, young adults, women, families, and couples who are facing a variety of issues including: relationship concerns, life transitions, personal and spiritual growth, grief/loss issues, depression and anxiety.

Felling like you have to be superman/superwoman and carry the weight of the world on your shoulders? Expectations of others wearing you down? Had a plan for your life but for some reason it’s no longer appealing and you’re afraid to start over? While some people seem to be moving through life effortlessly, others aren’t moving as seamlessly. Comparing our journey to those around us can build anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. Instead of discussing our fears and insecurities, we hide in shame or try tirelessly to compete. I believe you have the capacity to succeed at being the best version of you and that is more than enough.

Whether you are struggling with a particular issue or just can't shake the feeling that there is more to life, there is help.

My goal is to provide you with the insights and tools necessary to move beyond old, limiting beliefs and behaviors to new, healthy ways of approaching life.

Safety. Honesty. Freedom. Come as you are. I believe in creating a safe atmosphere without judgment, allowing you to freely come for the help you want and deserve. In this safety, we will journey together honestly to the root of these burdens facing you, seeking healing and insight in order to create true and lasting freedom in your life. Every person is different and therefore the process for each will be unique. Knowing this, I enjoy helping each person by adapting to his or her personality and comfort zone in order to make the process the most effective and fulfilling.

As a holistic psychotherapist, I maintain a "mind-body-environment" perspective to understand how mental, emotional, physical and spiritual health are interconnected and interrelated to our relationships with others, the environment (nature-culture) and ourselves. I recognize that when those elements are imbalanced, it creates symptoms that can lead to suffering. Anxiety and depression, among other mind-body symptoms, are both cause and effect of this imbalance. They are also the cause of feeling stagnant in life, another root of suffering. Therefore, I hope to work with my patients to create balance and find flow in their life.

Deciding to begin therapy can be challenging and intimidating. I believe what makes therapy successful is a strong therapeutic relationship and a good match between client and therapist.
