Considering making some changes in your life or wondering why life has you down? I trust you have good reason for being concerned. I want to hear all about it.

Psychotherapy is a learning process in which you come to better understand yourself and your relationships so you could promote change in the areas you would like to improve. As a therapist, my role is to help you explore destructive patterns and develop more positive ones in order to address life issues and transform daily experiences. Life is a journey, I meet people where they are at and work collaboratively to create a road map to make life more rewarding.

It is of the utmost importance to me that you feel comfortable and safe in our work together. We can talk on the phone and setup the initial session. If we are a good fit then we will continue to see each other. Life is difficult and we all go through ups and downs, suffering from depression and anxiety does not make this any easier. I will do my best to give you the tools you need to help you get through the tough times.

Do you want to stop skimming the surface and get to the heart of what's holding you back? Do you want to do that in a safe, supportive environment at your own pace? Do you want to do that with someone who believes you have the ability to free yourself and move ahead? There's never a better time to start than now.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, and trauma that leads to difficulties with regulating emotions.

I also work with couples who struggle with communication that leads to discontentment in their relationships.

Guilt is a major player in almost every mom's life. It can impact your relationship with your kids, partner, family members, and friends. You can't always be "supermom," and there is no such thing as perfect parenting. But you can learn to eliminate "mom guilt" to be the best version of yourself.

Given up too much of your authentic self for others and things are a mess. You've had enough with feeling like this. You want to make your own decisions, and be accepted and understood for who you are and live with ease. We can work together so you can find balance, contentment, and live optimally.

You think you're handling things, but then somewhere along the way, you've lost your grip. You can't sleep, you can't calm yourself down, and it seems like everyday stress deeply impacts you. You've tried but you can't reason with your thoughts. You know they're dark, or dramatic, or too anxious, but you can't seem to stop the cycle. Maybe it's impacting you internally only. Maybe it's affecting your work. Maybe you're losing friendships or relationships because of the emotions that take over so easily. It's exhausting. Whatever the case, you know it's time for help. Surely somebody knows the way out of this mess.

My desire is to help you live a full life, to listen openly and without bias and to understand you outside of your problems; to help you see that you have strengths and resources that will help you get through this difficult time. My goal is to help you feel hopeful again. When dealing with trauma from divorce, childbirth, loss or when trying to manage motherhood including post-partum issues, a career, or if you are feeling stuck, sad, confused, or anxious, I will aid you in identifying those obstacles that stand in your way of reaching your goals. Together, we will work collaboratively and holistically to work through it.
