Are you worn out? Are you losing hope? Do you need someone in your corner? If so, you are probably feeling exhausted and overwhelmed, maybe even despairing. I work with adults who are seeking relief from these distressing emotions, and from sleepless nights, endless worry, isolation, and mood swings.

Do you feel as though unhealthy coping skills are preventing you from becoming your "Best Self"? Sometimes in life, we face adverse situations in which we learn to cope using unhealthy skills. This may cause us to feel stuck and wondering why we can't do the things that we know, think, and feel would be helpful? Unhealthy coping behaviors may cause a person to feel stuck and wonder why they aren't progressing. Unfortunately, we continue to use these skills in ways that are no longer beneficial and eventually cause harm to our functioning. Therapy can be helpful in identifying, eliminating, and replacing these harmful behaviors.

You’re insightful, self-aware, and probably the one others rely on. But internally, something still feels stuck. You may notice patterns in your relationships, difficulty making decisions, or a sense that your emotional responses don’t quite match what you logically understand. You’ve likely done some therapy before, read the books, and can “think your way through” most things—but the deeper shift you’re looking for hasn’t quite happened yet.
That’s where I work - changing attachment patterns and operationalizing your desires an intentions.

My vision for counseling is to see people and families walk through life’s struggles with the help of others and hope for the future. We are all shaped by the relationships we form and our unique life experiences. The way we respond to those encounters tells us something about who we are. If you desire to restore connection with others, bring meaning to your experiences or explore your unique identity, I would like to help you take the next steps.
