Sadness, grief and worry are normal human experiences.

It’s late. Today’s work is finally done. You’re the last one to bed, after snapping at everyone else. You pause...Instead of enjoying the moment of peace and quiet reflection that you long for, there’s a vague sense of dread. It seems that whenever you stop, you find yourself filled with anxiety. You feel off-center. Never at ease. Never enough. You don’t want to go to bed because you know it’ll be another restless night of tossing and turning, alone--again. No one gets it. You’re not just tired, you're weary. That weariness gnaws at you. That ache, that longing for something different, something better, something more...

I believe that therapy can be a great environment to help you grow as an individual, to mend broken relationships, and to let go of the past that may be holding you back. I believe in creating a strong support system in order to help with the healing process and move forward with your life. In working with children, families and individuals I utilize an eclectic approach with an emphasis in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as I believe thinking, questioning and doing leads to changes needed for growth and recovery.

Accepting New Clients! Many people and couples reach a point where they feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or stuck in familiar patterns despite leading full, successful lives. I work with individuals and couples who are navigating the strain of long-term stress, responsibility, and relationship challenges that have slowly created distance or dissatisfaction. Therapy focuses on understanding these patterns and creating space for greater clarity, connection, and intentional change.

One of the bravest things you can do is start the journey of understanding your own story. If you have made the decision that you want seek therapy, but you don’t know where to begin, who to trust, or whether it is worth it to open up to a complete stranger, you are not alone, and I would love to help. Facing anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, strained relationships, or unexpected change alone can feel debilitating, so let’s face it together. Therapy doesn’t have to be a negative experience and I hope you'll give it a try.

My theoretical orientation is psychodynamic. Using the most appropriate and beneficial modality that fits with the client and their needs. I work collaboratively with a client to arrive at their personal goals in therapy. I have found life is a journey of learning how to live to the fullest with all the gifts that we possess and discovering others along the way. With all the experiences that we have in this life, a persons perspective makes a huge difference in how they experience it. My hope is to help find the perspective that helps alleviate suffering and creates a space for healing and thriving.
