I work well with clients who are open to exploring their past and its influence on the present, as well as willing to identify the role that they may be playing in their own suffering. We develop ways of psychologically protecting ourselves in our early development, and these strategies may negatively impact our lives and relationships today. Changing these patterns can be difficult! But with a willingness to look at the reality of your circumstances, you can achieve profound healing through more adaptive thinking and behaving. I will work alongside you in this exploration, and encourage active participation outside of session.

I believe it is our nature to heal and as individuals facing adversity, we often need support from others. My goal in therapy is to partner with clients to foster a relationship based on trust and mutual respect that acts as a container for healing, resilience, and growth. It is my passion to empower others to better understand themselves and the world around them so they can show up more fully in their lives. We’ll do this together by exploring challenges and strengths, uncovering blind spots, and developing new strategies for leading a happier and healthier life.

My professional life has been consistently focused on serving those in need. Following graduation from the U of M school of social work I focused extensively in substance use therapy with both adolescents and adults. I have found there is no greater satisfaction than helping others seek peace and achieve sobriety. As a licensed therapist I also have extensive experience in working with adults and adolescents facing the challenges of coping with anxiety, depression, addiction and behavioral issues. My focus is to learn about your barriers to positive change and work together to meet your treatment goals!

Over the last 43 years I've learned that what people want most is to be heard. But, more than that, they want someone to understand the feelings behind the words, and to feel safe in that process. That's when their inner voice gets clearer. With clarity, learning new strategies or making decisions about life or relationships is easier. When you know what you're doing, you can choose to do what you really want!

You're a guy who always say he's "fine", but you're struggling on the inside. You find yourself not enjoying relationships, work, or hobbies as much as you used to—or as much as you could. You're looking for a place to understand what's happening in your relationships, career, or life in general. Maybe you've never tried therapy before, or a bad therapy experience in the past has made you hesitant to give it another shot. The idea of discussing your feelings might feel awkward, selfish, or even 'weak,' but deep down, you recognize the need for change.

Life is challenging and you might feel unclear about taking your next steps. A recent life change—a breakup, career move, marriage, shift in family dynamics, or relocation—may have brought this into sharper focus. Deep down, you sense it’s time for a shift, even if you’re not exactly sure what that looks like.
I work with people who struggle feeling stuck in cycles of anxiety, self doubt, people-pleasing, or impostor syndrome. My approach is rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I help clients slow down, reconnect with who they are beneath the roles they play, and repair the relationship they have mainly with themselves.

Life presents us all with challenges that are not meant to be faced alone. I became a therapist after witnessing the gaps in resources our community experiences in support of emotional and mental health. My passion in the field stems from the belief that I can be a part of the change that is necessary, while being a resource for people seeking to change their lives in a positive way. I work with many backgrounds, lifestyles, and worldviews. The focus of my work is on anxiety and depression, particularly working with those who experience their symptoms while facing chronic illness or health issues.
