I meet each individual where they are in their process of healing, identify and build on strengths, and work together to meet their goals. If you are looking for someone who is caring and compassionate and laid back I am who you are looking for. I have a wide background of experience to draw from and provide support and growth. I enjoy working with teens and people looking for a new life transition such as divorce or workplace burnout. I really enjoy working with parents dealing with the anxiety and exhaustion of perfection parenting and how to let go of that "mom guilt."

With over twenty years of experience, I offer compassionate care in treating problems that have been resistant to change. Through depth psychology, I help clients address issues such as loss, alienation, lack of intimacy, insecurity, feelings of emptiness, and the scars of prior traumatic experiences, all of which often lead to depression and anxiety. My expertise includes individual short- and long- term psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, and couples counseling for adults of all ages.

Change is an inevitable part of life. Transitions are as natural as night and day. In nature we observe times when things move slowly without visable change - and then suddenly acceleration occurs followed by a transformation. I am a therapist/professional counselor who works with individuals ranging from childhood through late adulthood, couples, and families to assist them in finding personal growth, and work confidently through the natural transitions life brings. I recognize each client as unique and direct my counseling to the whole person; which attends to the body, mind, and spirit of each.

Starting individual counseling or couples counseling can be intimidating. I know it’s uncomfortable to open yourself up to someone and really take a look at the painful stories you carry around. Finding yourself can be a daunting task. What’s more uncomfortable is carrying around pain and other stressors. I am well versed in combating these powerful narratives and I am not afraid of authenticity. I believe that most stories are laced with grief such as divorce, loss or just simply losing yourself. Having experienced layers of grief in my own life, I am ready and willing to join you as you explore by doing the work in therapy.

You want to improve your relationship without spending months in therapy. You want to make significant changes with a therapist to whom you feel a connection. You wish you could be content, happy, engaged, and connected with your partner like you used to be. Perhaps porn or infidelity has devastated your relationship. Or, you feel unhappy, disconnected, stuck, and hopeless in other ways. Maybe you're experiencing conflict resolution difficulty, intimacy and sexuality issues, parenting disagreements, or financial conflicts. Gottman Therapy is the gold standard of couples therapy for a reseached-based reason.

My desire is to help individuals, couples and families build close, healthy relationships. I practice from an attachment-based orientation to help clients explore trauma, and patterns that create distance in their relationships, and shift into making deeper connections. I work with teens, adults, couples, and families struggling with a variety of issues that prevent them from living healthy, connected lives.

Currently accepting clients for EMDR therapy! I work with people who want to learn how to feel peace and calm in their mind and body while working through the pain from the past and the limiting beliefs in the present. My goal is to support your healing journey by helping you reprocess past trauma so you don't have to live with the negative beliefs that may be holding you back anymore.

My blended background in Psychology and Education has enhanced my passion & desire to help children, adolescents, adults & families achieve healthy functioning in all areas of their lives. I believe the promotion of child wellness & growth is built upon the foundation of familial support and the development of a strong sense of self. My therapeutic style focuses on identifying patterns of behavior, helping to establish and develop supportive relationships, reducing symptoms of anxiety/distress & promoting healthy self-esteem. I develop interventions to meet the specific needs and goals of each client and family.

Do you find yourself stuck in a pattern of self criticism and doubt? Do you want to go from people-pleasing to authentic? Overly critical to accepting? My clients describe themselves as "perfectionists" and "people pleasers" that have high expectations of themselves. I work with anxious clients to help them learn the skills needed to create a fulfilling and balanced life. I specialize and love working with people who aren't feeling connected with themselves and in their relationships. People who have been taught to strive for a "perfect" life, but find themselves anxious, irritable, and overall unfulfilled.

I am a somatic and relationship therapist, and provide both individual and couples therapy. For adults and adolescents dealing with various types of trauma from developmental to acute, I use Somatic Experiencing as well as IFS (internal family systems) to help you heal the intensity of your experience of past events that may be keeping you feeling overwhelmed and settle your nervous system in the here and now. For couples I use Gottman Couples Therapy to help you improve communication, and work through things from infidelity to parenting to navigating relationship changes. I also provide sex therapy to individuals and couples.

Most of my patients describe sessions with me as "effective." Yes, I'll sit and listen, empathize, and you'll know I genuinely care about you and your life. But you'll also probably hear things from me that others may not be willing to tell you. Why? Because I want to see you live the life you are capable of and unlocking many of those interactions helps with that process! I generally use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. They are both great types of therapy that focus on behavioral strategies for change after examination of your thinking.
