Parents sometimes face very important questions about their children, including: Why is my child showing difficulties at school? Could they be struggling with dyslexia or dysgraphia? Does my child have ADHD? Why is my daughter having so many social difficulties? Is my son's defiance a normal part of his development? Is my teenager depressed? Are my child's worries normal for someone her age? Does my preschooler have a developmental delay? How can I help my college student? Psychological and neuropsychological evaluations are used to answer these and other kinds of questions, as well as provide recommendations for how to help.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, with a combined 20 years of advocacy and clinical experience, I continually marvel at how profoundly strong, resilient, and adaptive humans are and the many ways, usually unconsciously, that we develop to navigate and cope within our uniquely formative personal, familial, and cultural contexts. Often these coping skills that served us so well in childhood, as we dealt with difficult experiences and/or trauma, do not work as well once we become adults and move into new contexts. It can be scary when coping strategies, that used to help, no longer provide the solace and comfort they once did.

I work with teens, adults, and families. I believe that counseling is, first and foremost, a relationship; positive change can only take place when the relationship is based upon honest and open communication, collaboration, and trust. With individuals, my goal is to help you build upon your existing coping skills, deepen your insight, and work with you to develop healthier approaches that will improve your ability to handle future stressors, challenges, and losses. With families, my goal is to help identify challenges and collaborate on an action plan for family success.

You may feel stuck in repetitive patterns, struggling to connect with yourself or your partner. Maybe you keep having the same fights or feel distant, unseen, or misunderstood. You want more—more intimacy, better communication, and freedom from old wounds. Whether as an individual or a couple, you're looking for real change. You’re ready to break cycles, show up fully, and create relationships that feel safe, alive, and deeply connected.

I think deep down we all want spaces where we can be totally real. Where we can say whatever we think or feel and not be judged for it. When we don't have these spaces, we learn to hide in order to protect ourselves. We don't say what we actually think or feel for so long that sometimes we stop knowing ourselves or feeling known by others. We get stuck in patterns that we don't want, but don't know how to get out of. If you're sick of feeling stuck, therapy is a great place to start. Once we make space to know ourselves, change can actually happen.

Welcome and congratulations on taking the first step so that life may get different for you. The beauty and benefits of re-examining how we can make changes in our lives, continues to fuel my passion for therapeutic dialogue. The integrative nature of my work allows for us to look at family of origin explanations, without blaming, so that you can move toward change. When what feels like roadblocks comes up there are a number of tools that can help, like increasing mindfulness and learning more around boundaries and assertive communication.

I would love to help you create more flexibility and creativity in your relationships to self and others. We'll do this using depth psychology ideas, somatic attention, EMDR, and EFT Tapping. I listen to the stories you tell and how you tell them. Attention to posture and sensation helps us see body narratives, and observation of speech patterns and words provides clues about mental and emotional themes. Eventually new stories and possibilities appear as we interrupt worn out messages and invite new meanings. You will learn emotion regulation, self-advocacy, boundary-setting, and increased creative resilience.

As a naturopathic doctor, I offer a holistic approach to mental health. I work with patients who are dealing with anxiety, depression, insomnia, fatigue, difficulty with concentration and poor memory. Often these symptoms are hand in hand with gastrointestinal issues, headaches, irregular or painful menses, infertility and other hormonal imbalances. By treating the whole person I can get to the root cause of the symptoms, looking at genetic, dietary/lifestyle, and other factors that might be contributing. I do not offer mental health counseling, however I work closely with several therapists to offer collaborative care.

I work with parents who want a thoughtful, child-centered approach to divorce. My clients are often motivated to reduce conflict, protect their children from the stress of the process, and make decisions they can live with long-term. Some are early in the divorce process and feeling overwhelmed about where to start. Others are already navigating separation and need structure, clarity, and a steady process to move forward. Many are drawn to collaborative law mediation because they want to stay out of court, maintain more control over decisions, and build a workable co-parenting relationship moving forward.

I’m passionate about helping kids and teens who struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, and overwhelming emotions to find comfort and peace in their own skin. Growing up can be tough, particularly if your child has experienced big life changes, trauma, or is highly sensitive. Your child may feel scared, sad, or worry that something is wrong with them. As a parent you may feel discouraged that, despite every effort to support them, your child is still struggling. In our therapy sessions, I’m here to help your child develop a greater sense of ease in who they are, learn skills, and build confidence in navigating the ups and downs of life.
