If you are feeling overwhelmed or stuck in negative patterns of anxiety, depression, eating or weight issues, you do not have to struggle through this alone.

TELETHERAPY ONLY. Life is a journey. Like all journeys, there are times we feel overwhelmed, tired, confused, or even lost. The most important journey of all is the journey inwards, the one that takes us towards our true self. This journey helps us learn, accept, and embrace who we are. If you're encountering any struggles on your journey in life -- anxiety, depression, life transitions, addiction, coming out -- then I'm here to help.

When you realize you're struggling or you are at a difficult point in your life, the awareness can cultivate growth. Reaching out for assistance is not a sign of weakness, but rather a sign of your strength and motivation for change. It shows your readiness to address what is needed to move through the challenge. Stress, anxiety, past traumas, life transitions, relationship difficulties, or any other challenges can knock anyone off balance.

Phone and Teleconferencing are now being used during the pandemic. This is a good time to work on issues that you and your partner may have been too busy to focus on before. Are you anxious or depressed? Do you want to create a better life for yourself but you are unsure how to make the changes you want? Are you in a relationship where the fighting is becoming greater than the satisfaction of being with your partner? Have you or your partner had an affair? Is your sex life a disappointment? Are you and your partner experiencing the intimacy you yearn for inside and outside the bedroom? Are you struggling with sexual pain?

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or lost? Are you struggling to cope with life's challenges? Are you looking for a safe and supportive space to explore your thoughts and emotions? If so, therapy can help. At my therapy practice, I offer compassionate and personalized counseling services to help you navigate life's ups and downs. I strive to provide a non-judgmental and confidential environment where you can open up and express yourself freely, without fear of being criticized or misunderstood.

Are you a woman who has experienced abuse of any kind? The type of abuse may include physical, emotional, verbal and sexual abuse. I have extensive experience working with women who have been in abusive relationships. I also have a passion for working with women's issues such as trauma, self-esteem, body image, parenting, relationship issues, to name a few.

Life is a challenge we have to take on, it’s not what we see when we look at our neighbors or social media posts. We face difficult life transitions that everyone is trying to figure out. Most of us try to be polite and only show others around us the pretty parts. Our world is changing all the time and this can create feelings of uncertainty, anxiety, or other mental health issues. When life appears to be overwhelming therapy is a great resource; working with a trusted, empathic professional. You do not have to go through difficult times alone, working regularly with a therapist has become the new normal in our world.

I am best at facilitating a process where you can find your authentic self and be able to not only understand your emotions but also build healthier pathways to overcome difficulties. My clinical background focuses on the overall human experience, its difficulties across different stages in life, and its powerful connection between our body and mind. As a clinician, I believe in the importance of having a strong therapeutic relationship so evidence-based treatments can be more effective.

I am also a FL Qualified MFT/MHC Supervisor

In psychodynamic treatment, we enter a journey together to understand behaviors and feelings that just don't make sense; to Prevent the Past from interfering in the Present; to improve personal relationships; to change lifelong ways of coping that don't work; and finally to stop self-destructive behavior patterns. Please consider our work together an adventure in life - and not that of a "sick" patient with an all-knowing doctor! I welcome you to make an exciting journey with me that promotes self-understanding, a internal sense of peace, and the feeling of being comfortable in your own skin.

My philosophy is that "It takes courage to be happy. . . again." So many people will stay stuck in a life situation and before long, it starts to feel "comfortable" at least to the extent that it is either too scary or too difficult to try to make those necessary changes. Often, it takes the guidance of a trusted therapist to help one discover where, how, and why a person is stuck, to point out distorted thinking, and to help map a plan for progress towards a goal. My 25 years of experience in the field creates my philosophy and approach. Let's begin the journey.

"All that we are is the result of what we have thought." For generations, this wisdom has been a cornerstone of the philosophies and religions of man. It reflects the essence of dynamic and transformational therapy and provides the keys to our happiness and success. With a true understanding of the profound yet practical validity of this statement, there is no psychological or life issue that I can not show you how to manage! Proven by research to be the most effective approach both in long and short term outcome, Cognitive Behavior Therapy lies in perfect harmony with such wisdom.
