I believe that each of us has within us everything we need to reach our full potential. Often in life, people receive messages that some part of themselves is not acceptable, which causes them to believe that they must change themselves to meet others' expectations. Through a genuine counseling relationship in which people feel understood and accepted for who they truly are, I believe that people have the capacity to heal from within and live meaningful and fulfilling lives in which they are free to be fully themselves, trust themselves, and meaningfully connect with others.

I endeavor to help my clients to identify their existing strengths and develop resilience with my specialized knowledge and clinical expertise. In the beginning of counseling, my clients will have a clear understanding of where they are emotionally, relationally, and spiritually, which lead them to work on specific goals in the working stage of counseling. Therapeutic interventions will include adjusting thought/behavior patterns (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) to intensify their strengths to overcome crisis. I have successfully worked with the clients who struggled with behavior issues, parenting issues, substance abuse, addiction, PTSD, and trauma-related issues.

I believe things can get better for us, our families, and communities by engaging in authentic and courageous relationships with ourselves and each other.

It is my pleasure to help others through the challenging periods of their life and help them find meaning in those experiences. I provide talk therapy for adolescents emerging into adulthood and adults across the life span. I am also EMDR trained to help individuals struggling with trauma and adverse life experiences.

Welcome! Create change... Feel better... Choosing a counselor is a big deal. My hope is to help make the process easier. I have 18 years of clinical experience working with adults and teens, and 15 years providing EMDR Level II therapy (a modality that can swiftly address anxiety, grief and trauma). In my practice I have seen individuals discover their strengths, heal themselves and create a life worth living. I aim to establish a therapeutic relationship that allows clients to grow and change in a safe and supportive environment. I believe it is important to honor clients' values, unique experiences, and complex journeys.

I believe that each of us struggles to find meaning and connection. Although others tell us that the solution is simple, change is difficult. We often become discouraged that we do not have the power to create the life and relationships we long for. My job as your therapist is to instill confidence and equip you with skills to create a life where your problems no longer manage you. Life will never be perfect, but therapy can help you overcome difficulties that prevent you from living your best life.

Nearly every aspect of your life can be summarized in a spreadsheet monitoring its growth trajectory. Your internal drive has been your greatest asset, achieving goal after goal. Yet you feel empty. You have a place in society, going to the fundraisers, joining the clubs, and rubbing elbows with the top people in your industry. It's not enough. Your quest to reach the next bonus bracket, climb the Peloton ranking, and get your home organization just right still leaves you longing for more. You thought success would feel different.

As a therapist I believe the individuals I work with are the experts in their lives. I create a therapeutic space that renders mutual respect and honors personal decision-making. Regardless of the situations or life experiences that bring you to me, I believe you will find the answers within you as I help nurture and guide you. Therapy can be long-term or short-term based on your individual needs. I believe in goal-oriented therapy. I enjoy providing individuals and families concrete evidence-based tools that they can take with them, and incorporate in their lives long after their participation in therapeutic services.

I work with my clients to build confidence and autonomy in my sessions to speak freely. No struggle is too big or too small. We work on creating larger goals at first, while also looking into smaller steps to reach those larger goals. My top priority is client comfort and ensuring a safe space for each person in the therapeutic environment. Just be yourself and come to the session, you've already done an amazing job.
