As a therapist, I am privileged to be in the role of facilitator of change. But, the actual expert and change-maker in your life is you. A person-centered approach is the pillar of my practice. I am here to empower you to make the changes you want to see. I know anyone who walks into my office or steps onto my screen has already walked through one of the most difficult steps in therapy - the beginning. I admire you taking this step and thank you for allowing me along for the journey. I am confident working together we can figure anything out.

Welcome to the road to recovery! Recognizing the need to seek out assistance for your mental health and wellbeing is the first step of the journey. Life can become stressful and overwhelming at times and we often don't know where to turn. Confusion and uncertainty takes over and our sense of worth and value are shaken. The inability to cope with stress can lead to anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and other symptoms that can negatively impact your relationships. Experiencing childhood adversity or trauma at any age can also leave us on unstable ground

I believe in a holistic approach to therapy. We will take into consideration how you are feeling, emotionally and physically. Positive psychology, CBT , DBT and mindfulness are a few of the approaches I use to manage disabling thoughts and enhance positive emotions in people with depression, anxiety disorders as well as addictions. Sometimes you may have no idea why you feel the way you do. That is ok. I hope to offer you the place to explore your needs, your wants, your fears. Therapy can be scary to start. I promise you it will open your eyes to new possibilities and hope. I will help guide you towards the contentment you seek.

Everyone deserves this chance to better themselves and relieve the burden that mental health issues can bring to our daily lives. There are many reasons people seek therapy. There could be feelings of nervousness or sadness, or an urge to finally get what's bothering you off your chest. No matter what it is, therapy brings out the best in you, and may surprise you. I've interacted with many clients who come in for one problem, and then discover hidden pieces of themselves.
