Change can be a difficult yet exciting process. I work hard to provide a safe space where clients can explore their past and grow their potential. I use an integrated therapy approach that mixes elements of many different therapy styles to adapt treatment to your unique needs. I use an authentic and direct, yet gentle, approach to foster a relationship with you and value meeting you where you are with empathy, warmth, and acceptance.

Do you wake up feeling overwhelmed by life’s daily responsibilities? Do you notice a brain fog that makes it hard to think clearly? Do you start your day and immediately begin to feel overstimulated? I totally get it. We live in a world that is fast-paced and demanding. If your mind and surroundings feel cluttered, it can feel impossible to tackle the next big project or even several smaller projects. Maybe you have a pile of dishes sitting in your sink right now that you know need to be loaded into the dishwasher, but you can’t get yourself off the couch. It's okay, I'm here to help.

Happiness is our natural state of being... if you're not happy, then you're not in alignment with your natural state. So the question is, "Do you want to be happy?" I will work with you to help identify your values; which are the foundation for your decision making. Decisions that stem from your values will bring you peace and clarity. Decisions that stem from fear or old unhealthy patterns will bring you conflict and confusion. It's that simple... Happiness is a choice and a practice, despite the labels we may have been given along the way.
