Life can be difficult...we all have our individual strengths and weaknesses. Clients in my practice seek counseling from a professional when problems at home and/or at work have seriously interrupted or threaten to harm important relationships. Counseling is a process that helps individuals to build up personal strengths and interpersonal skills. Counseling teaches us and helps us to practice the skills we need to cope with our weaknesses or to change them to benefit ones self and others. I look forward to meeting with you to help you begin the journey towards healthier and happier relationships.

My goal is to help people feel empowered to make changes in their lives and learn to cope with stressors in a healthy and effective way. I strive to build a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship, and believe that empathy and understanding are the key. I work from a foundation of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, but included strategies from several different modalities to best suit my clients' needs. I have a wealth of experience treating depression and anxiety, and I specialize in treating Eating Disorders from a weight neutral perspective. I also have experience treating codependency, relational issues, and trauma.

Relationships can be very wonderful, at times difficult, but are crucial to our health and overall well-being. How we think about those relationships impacts our mood and our day-to-day functioning. How you think about a situation can affect your behavior. Lewis Howes is right "Your thoughts shape your reality...". As a licensed therapist, I’ve discovered techniques to help identify and change unhealthy thought patterns and improve relationships. I have experience and training working with couples dealing with relational issues ranging from infidelity, divorce, trust, and betrayal.
