Congratulations, you have taken the first step towards healing. Sometimes life can become complicated causing you to feel overwhelmed with distressful emotions. When it affects your work, relationships and your self-esteem, you realize it's time to get help. I offer a non-judgmental and empathetic approach so we can build a relationship that will help me gain an understanding of your problems, feelings, hopes and fears. We will work together to find a satisfactory resolution. I have worked with clients who suffered from depression, anxiety, grief/loss, guilt/shame, trauma, medical issues, and relationship issues.

Are you experiencing distress after trauma? Do you lose time or feel disjointed internally? Do you have flashbacks or don't understand why you feel the way you do? I specialize in working with complex trauma and dissociation, including DID. I am experienced in EMDR Levels I and II. My work has been influenced by various models, including IFS, an engaging ego state approach. I regularly integrate Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills into the challenge of this work, which has proven to be a very effective combination. Additionally, I am Level I and Level II trained in using the Gottman Method for Couples Therapy.

Thriving Center of Psychology is setting a new standard for accessible, high-quality mental health care. As a therapist-founded organization, our mission is to streamline the journey towards mental well-being, offering personalized hybrid care that gives patients and clinicians flexibility between in-person and virtual sessions which includes individual, couples, and family therapy across 14 states. We ensure that you can find the right therapist and form a connection that fosters measurable and meaningful change.

My approach to therapy is person-centered; meaning that therapy is for you and defined by you. I aim to create a supportive, affirming, and warm therapeutic environment where you feel comfortable to show up authentically as you are. I believe that the best therapeutic work is done when you feel calm, respected, and heard by your therapist. My therapeutic style is eclectic and draws from several evidence-based modalities including Rogerian, Relational and Narrative Therapy. I also incorporate skills from CBT and DBT into my practice.

Do you ever feel stuck in life? Feel like no matter what you do, things do not seem to get better? Do you ever feel lonely, sad, and at times like no one hears you or understands you? Do you find yourself struggling to balance your life and job? Are you struggling with stress, anxiety or depression? If so, you came to the right place as I am here to help you! Everyone can use a helping hand and a listening ear when their world feels upside down. Whether it is related to family issues, relationship trouble, work or life stressors, together we can identify what has been working out and what has not been working out in your life.

Relationships are key to our wellbeing. Frequent conflict & toxic interactions cause harm. While being heard & understood makes us feel safe. Healing prior traumas or toxic relationships (e.g. narcissistic abuse/cPTSD) & prioritizing self-care & your own dreams can be a challenge. I'll help you identify & share your feelings & needs, set boundaries gracefully & be your most genuine self. My affirming, solution-focused approach will help you shift unhealthy thoughts & patterns, enhance your ability to express yourself in ways that will be heard & find or transform relationships into authentic connections that enhance your well-being.

I primarily offer individual therapy, helping client's identify and modify maladaptive patterns that contribute to feelings of distress. These may include negative thought patterns that influence mood and behavior, difficulty controlling excessive worrying, experiencing unhealthy emotions and behaviors associated with trauma, and difficulties adjusting to different life stressors. I view therapy as the process of developing a deeper level of awareness that leads to better understanding of oneself, personal growth, and motivation to strive for healthy changes.
