Often people come to therapy because they feel lost or stuck in their lives. They may sense that they are repeating patterns or facing the same struggles at work, in their homes, or in relationships without really knowing why or being able to imagine how things could be different.

The world is real rough sometimes isn't it? Let's find a gentle place for you to land. You might find your heart racing thinking about a stressful conversation or notice that you struggle to breathe after being reminded of a trauma from the past. You’ve been living with this for a while and thought it would just ease with time, but it feels like something in your nervous system is just mis-wired. Through body-based, creative, and relational work we can create a space that allows your body to soften and settle, to find a little more peace.

I view therapy as a relationship that client and therapist choose to enter into for the sake of treating specific issues as well as to engage the deeper issues of the client's life. I believe that people are best understood by looking at their interactions with others. In our process together, we will explore how past relationships have impacted your patterns of relating in the present. We will also seek greater awareness of what is occurring between the two of us during our therapy sessions.

During times of stress and transition, seeking therapy can be a source of support, comfort, and even inspiration. My experience has focused on creative and body-centered approaches to growth and healing, including art therapy, trauma-sensitive yoga, dreamwork, and EMDR. This includes grief work and issues that accompany trauma-related treatment, such as anxiety, depression, and existential/spiritual issues. Additional themes in clients' healing work include explorations of relationships, sexuality, and identity. I love working co-creatively with clients of all ages and backgrounds.

Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional. If you're in a cycle of depression, stress, or looking for support, it's time to prioritize and care for your mental health. When suffering goes unchecked it has a way of affecting your personality, your performance, even your relationships. Therapy is a great space to try on different perspectives, connect with your true self, work through conflicts, and sit with difficult feelings.

Anxiety-Relationships-Trauma: When life starts to feel overwhelming, fatiguing, and chaotic, reaching out for help can be especially difficult. Mental health symptoms can be barriers to things like relationships, our career, our goals, and undertanding who we are as a person. While these barriers may seem overwhelming, they don’t have to define you or prevent you from healing, growth, and a life that is full. When you can’t get past these barriers on our own, it’s okay to get help.

As a counselor, I strive to create a space of safety and support, where each client feels heard and is comfortable to begin the discovery of themselves and the journey to a happier, healthier life.
Within us all is the potential to live our best life, to be our best self, to have fulfilling relationships, to feel good in the morning when we wake up and satisfied with our lives when we fall asleep. We all also have the ability to be our own worst enemy, to gather negativity in our lives, to create destructive pattens which defies our desire for a life full of peace and happiness. The choice is each of ours to make.

Do you ever feel that you may be getting in the way of yourself in your efforts to live a rich and fulfilling life? Maybe you feel unmotivated or disconnected from a sense of joy. Often, this results from a lack of clarity about what matters most to you or even well-intentioned efforts to escape feelings of pain and suffering. I believe that a rich, meaning-filled life includes both incredible highs and inevitable lows. Through the lens of that belief, I seek to help people mindfully, authentically, and compassionately embrace the range of ups and downs that they experience in their lives. Through this, true healing can happen!

My aim is to help you reconnect with yourself and begin to feel worthy just as you are.

Life is way too short to feel like your best isn't good enough. Too short to fear you will not be accepted as you are and feel as though you have to live in your own shadow. You do not have to avoid certain people, places, or feelings to feel in control of your body. Could you be holding yourself back from being your best self? Kind of like self-sabotage? Do you have difficulty trusting others or building bonds out of fear they are just going to leave you? This could lead to experiencing difficulty maintaining any type of relationship.

I trained in psychology because friends and even strangers were always asking me for help. Seriously, total strangers would come up to me in the laundromat and tell me their troubles, which I found unnerving, given that I was a complete mess myself. So I went to school. Learned some solid tools. Road tested those tools. I still get anxious and depressed at times. That's part of the human condition. But I know some things that can help, and I'd like to share them with you. I'm also trained as a coach, if you want to focus less on the past and more on the future. Don't go through crap by yourself. Let's connect.
