Hello and welcome! Life often throws us into a whirlwind of societal expectations, dictating how we should live, who we should spend our time with, and what our lives should conform to. This constant pressure can leave us feeling overwhelmed and detached from who we actually want to be. Within my practice, I provide a secure space where we can confront and challenge these societal expectations, empowering you to lead life on your own terms.

If you're feeling overwhelmed by worry, anxiety, or panic, know that you're not alone. Perhaps you're facing a loss of interest in things once loved, or a sadness that lingers, leaving you unmotivated and self-critical. If conflicts with loved ones have left you feeling stuck, there is a path forward. Together, in our initial sessions, we'll explore the underlying issues and craft a personalized plan that draws on your unique strengths and values. The goal is to equip you with the tools to improve your well-being and develop coping strategies that will enable you to reclaim control over your life.

Hi there, thanks for stopping by! My approach to therapy comes from the belief that your journey is unique and personal. Sometimes life experiences place obstacles in our path that make it hard to move forward. My goal is to help you remove these so you can find purpose and joy in life. Part of removing these obstacles is knowing how you react to stress or trauma and recognize warning signs and patterns that cause you to feel anxious, stuck, tired, overwhelmed, or all of the above! I work with adults and motivated couples who really want to work on the relationship, but aren't sure where to start.

As your therapist, I will explore your concerns and assist you in uncovering deeper issues that might be hindering or influencing your relationships and your worldview. “Forces beyond your control can take away everything you possess except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation.” -- Dr. Viktor Frankl, Holocaust survivor, existentialist, and founder of Logotherapy (concept based on the premise that the primary motivational force of an individual is to find a meaning in life).

You're struggling with past traumas. Maybe you don't even realize that a lot of your frustration, anxiety and depression and current struggles are linked to past traumas. It can be overwhelming dealing with intense emotions and identify the why behind it to change your life.

Have there been some past events in your life that have fundamentally changed you as a person?

You may be in a space and time in your life where you are ready to begin therapy for the first time or maybe you are moving toward it again.

Navigating your own personal story is a way to begin to transition toward the life you desire and long for.
