All sessions are by telehealth only. People come to therapy for a variety of reasons. I help people who are experiencing problems in daily living, difficulty in navigating life transitions, relationship and family discord, or who struggle with symptoms of anxiety, depression or loss. Therapy is about removing obstacles and developing the capacity for self-acceptance, self- expression, and joy. I will collaborate with you to set your goals and uncover new strategies for a happier life.

Understanding "why or how" a problem has become a problem is not enough; "doing something about it" is what matters. If we work together, we'll come up with a treatment plan to tap into the drivers of your struggles and start making a shift.

It is such a privilege to work with people to identify, heal, resolve and shift past experiences and issues. When trauma interrupts our growing up or early adult life experience, we are often left with coping mechanisms that worked temporarily, or at least provided an anesthetic and bandage, but ultimately left us with an unresolved history and even bigger problems such as depression, anxiety, substance use disorders, relationship trauma and/or compulsive behaviors. You deserve to feel freedom, relief and release from these truths. Let's work together to find your path to wholeness.

You will develop a sense of safety in your body and relationships with others, learn to overcome overwhelming emotions and increase confidence in approaching life's challenges, and redefine your future.
