"Asking for help is one of the hardest things to do. It can make you feel defeated and vulnerable, however, it is the first step to overcome the obstacles in your life. After overcoming this step, the last thing you want to do is to tell a stranger your most inner thoughts. I will provide an environment that encourages trust, open communication, and understanding. I believe it is important to collaborate with my clients as each client is the expert of their own lives. It is my personal goal to empower and develop the skills my client needs to address any issues that are prohibiting them from living the life that they want to live."

"Is your child struggling in school, having a difficult time making friends, or has just experienced a life altering event? As a therapist that uses play, I believe that children use play to express themselves and explore the world around them. Often times, children have so little control over what happens to them. Play can allow them to regain a sense of power and understanding. As parents it can be so difficult to figure out how to best intervene to support your child. Let me help. Together we can help you and your child navigate this difficult time."

"HI!! Are you OVERWHELMED? (take a long deep breath...."no, for real.") Do you feel like you have tried everything you know to do. It's time to exhale!

Your child is driving you crazy....but you're not suppose to feel like that, right? Your child seemed to have issues you can't seem to fix. How is this? "

"You are overwhelmed, exhausted and stressed. Feeling normal again is the goal. Keeping it all in is no longer working and you know its time to talk to someone. You might feel so heavy, anything you do, feels like running a marathon. Maybe your thoughts are racing so fast you have a difficult time focusing on one task.

It may seem embarrassing but you know you cannot continue experiencing the overwhelming feeling of uneasiness."

"Life is an ongoing journey towards wholeness. Along that road, we experience expected and unexpected changes that can cause us to question who we are and exactly where we’re going. I have been a practicing psychotherapist for 30+ years, focusing on helping people understand who they are and how their life experiences have shaped them. Symptoms like anxiety and depression are signals. Psychotherapy isn’t a quick fix, but a journey of exploration to achieve deeper self understanding, which can unlock the stuckness and lead to greater emotional freedom. I believe it to be the best investment we can make towards healthier living. "

"WTH. You did everything right. You take on the impossible every day, and what do you have to show for it? You don't know who to be the most mad at. First off, you have Disney over here selling you some BS about romance. Social media is shoveling mom guilt on you before 8am. There's the complete myth that "compatibility" makes relationships work. But mostly it's that face looking back at you when you accidentally open the front-facing camera. The REAL you. You don't even know who that is anymore. Is it supposed to be this hard?"
