Sometimes the stresses and difficulties of life can become too insurmountable to face on our own, and we need additional therapeutic input to help navigate these obstacles and build resiliency. Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, difficulty with coping, relationship challenges or workplace stress? These are some of the issues we can address together in therapy. If you want to make positive changes in your life and see an increase in your overall health and well-being, improved mood, feel more in control of your life, experience peace, discover your full potential or gain a better understanding of yourself, therapy can help.

Everything about our lives is centered in relationship; knowing how to effectively initiate and maintain supportive, enjoyable and mutually satisfying relationships will serve us throughout our lives. But this doesn't happen without many ups and downs, some of which benefit from including a supportive, objective and helpful therapist. If you are wishing to improve your thinking, your skill in dealing with stress, anxiety, depression or trauma, living in past experiences or fearing the future, I would be honored to help.

Are you tired of running away from your fears and missing out on opportunities for growth? You have all the answers inside you. My role is to walk alongside you on this journey of personal growth to help you find those answers. I can hold the mirror for you to see in those blind spots that are hard for us to see on our own, to help you understand better how you want to help yourself in acceptance or taking action (whichever fits your true self where you are at), and to have the patience and love to be gentle with yourself.

I have been working with people for 30 years and look forward to helping clients create healthy relationships with me, themselves and with those in their lives. I enjoy working with individuals from all racial and cultural backgrounds who are motivated to make changes in their lives; to reduce painful reactions; and increase their understanding of what makes them feel happy, strong and self assured. I encourage clients to do homework assignments in between therapy sessions, in an effort to help clients take ownership of their process, and learn coping skills that will last beyond treatment.

••Current openings•• Be fully yourself. Laugh. Cry. Be really afraid or angry—perhaps even at your therapist. Talk a lot. Sit in silence. Dive right in. Take it slow. Talk about something you’ve never talked about before. Talk about something inconsequential so what is bothering you doesn’t feel so overwhelming. All of this is welcome. There'll be no pressure to do it one way or another. I'll follow your lead.

My goal is to help people connect with themselves and others in meaningful and satisfying ways. Connection with the self allows acceptance and enjoyment of life without fear, suspicion, self-judgment, etc., which can prevent us from living life to its fullest. Connection with others allows us to "double our joy and divide our grief." Addressing issues such as depression, self-esteem, or anger can enhance our abilities to know ourselves and be fully present with others. I use an eclectic therapeutic style so that the work can be tailored to fit each client in each session.

Psychology has come a long way. As someone who has graduated within the past five years, with current knowledge in the field as well as life experience, I enjoy applying multicultural counseling, relational systems therapy, and trauma informed care for clients with all backgrounds, issues and concerns. Every client is a unique combination of past experiences, current challenges and strengths, and future goals and dreams, and I commit to fully helping clients understand the issues that they face with support, compassion, and information for the help they seek in therapy.

I believe the development of a secure and collaborative relationship is the most important aspect of the work I do with clients. Working from a strengths-based and relational perspective in a trauma informed manner, I have experience working with at-risk youth, families, and adults using a multi-theoretical approach including Attachment theory, Cognitive-Behavioral, Family Systems, Narrative therapy, Internal Family systems, Somatic techniques, and alternative therapies such as art and nature therapy. I love helping youth and adults through change and deep transformation so that they can actualize their goals in life.

We are all differently-abled and have our own challenges in life. Whether you are experiencing painful relationships, stress, crisis, life changes or just want more out of life, counseling can help. Covid-19 created a lot of changes for everyone and I am here as a support. I believe in a holistic approach that is centered around where you want to begin. I'm here to join you in making a plan for success. I provide a supportive therapeutic relationship and competency-based psychotherapy. I have been working in social work since 1993 and am skilled in various methods so that counseling can be interactive, engaging, and reflective.

Welcome and thank you for visiting my profile. I offer a highly personalized, supportive approach tailored to your specific needs. I work collaboratively with each client with an emphasis on providing tools that foster self exploration, emotional regulation, healing and personal / relational growth.

Anxiety has left you not wanting to get out of bed some days. You feel weighted down or always on edge, worried about every next thing and you don't know if you can cope with any of it. Things have happened in your past, there's been hurt and traumatic events and they seem to have a lasting impact for you, your family, and those you care about. You long to feel close and comfortable with those you care about. But everything that's happened in the past doesn't allow for the ease of connection you desire.

My goal as a therapist is to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their emotional needs and overcome the obstacles which are keeping them from experiencing their fullest potential. I utilize a non-judgmental, compassionate and collaborative approaches in therapy to support clients in addressing their life, relationships and the challenges they face. As part of the therapeutic process, I may use several techniques including art, sand tray, role-play, mindfulness practices, play therapy approaches and activities to work on at home.

Assisting individuals, couples, and families to increase awareness of their own power to heal, sustain, and grow in response to life challenges.

The pandemic was hard on all of us. If you feel like you need some support or help to desal the last couple of years, I'm here. We all need help occasionally. Learning how to approach and overcome these challenges shape us and allow us to experience life to the fullest. Therapy allows us to look at where we may be blocked and helps us find our own answers to living an authentic life. I discovered that building a supportive relationship through therapy creates a safe place to explore life issues, understand difficult situations, learn new skills, enrich relationships, and work through situations that lead to a more authentic life.

Therapy provides a safe, confidential, non-judgmental space to bring issues to the surface and develop a plan to address them. From problems that feel somewhat small, to traumatic experiences and major life complications, working with a trained professional can be stabilizing and facilitate calm, clarity, and strength so that you can move forward in your journey with happiness and health.

New Growth Psychology is dedicated to providing psychodynamic therapy to teens and adults. Psychodynamic therapy is not a one-size-fits-all approach, but an evidence-based treatment that acknowledges the vastness of each individuals experience while holding pervasive themes that exist across human experience. This type of therapy can be a good fit for individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, existential crisis, or identity exploration. Some possible benefits of psychodynamic therapy include increased awareness of emotions, increased self-esteem and deepening in interpersonal relationships.
