I believe that therapy can benefit all of us. It helps to reduce stress and can improve our overall quality of life. If you are experiencing difficulties with mood, anxiety, anger, trauma or grief, I may be able help. In my experience, the most important aspect of therapy is the building of rapport between you and your therapist. With this in mind, I focus first on listening, being curious and respecting the fact that the people who I work with are the experts on their own lives. With a foundation of understanding then in place, we can work on achieving your individual goals.

Life has its up and downs and navigating through it alone can feel isolating but with help from a clinician and support from family and friends you can find ways to cope in a more functional and positive way. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental, client centered, culturally sensitive, humanistic, psycho dynamic, multi perspective, and integrative approach. I come from a diverse background which helps me understand many people from various cultures and dynamics. It derives from the realization that each individual's journey is unique.

Relationship with others is a primary motivating force in our lives, it is a basic need we all seek to meet in different ways. Non-judgmental collaboration with clients to help discover the emotional patterns in their lives and relationships that can cause and/or maintain distress, with the goal of creating more adaptive and fulfilling responses, is the main focus of the work we do. We will team up to identify the needs underlying your emotions and thoughts and we will work to find clearer and more authentic ways of communicating those needs so that they can finally be met.

Imagine you're on either end of a boat. As the waves begin to crash against the deck, and the thick fog begins to blanket the surface around you, it's difficult to see and direct your attention to anyone else around you. Relying on voice, do you feel that others respond to you? Is there engagement from those you need support from? Feeling lost, can you find yourself to the lighthouse that guides you to shore? For couples and individuals who have endured attachment wounds, experienced depression or anxiety, and/or are still overcoming their trauma, I am honored to hold space to help YOU find your way back to shore.

As we travel our journey, there are times that we need extra help and support. Especially, to move through the rough and uncomfortable times. In therapy, I believe it is important to meet people at what stage they are in while making that journey. This allows us to build the right tool box to equip them for success. I have over 20 years of experience working with adults, teenagers, and adolescents. My experience has been around helping individuals with anxiety, depression, parenting, behavior management, trauma, and other life stressors.

I believe each of my clients has the capacity to live a whole-hearted, fulfilling, and authentic life. Each of us struggles from time to time with obstacles that can make it difficult or even impossible to access that authenticity. As a counselor, I have the privilege of supporting my clients in identifying the obstacles and bringing compassion to the parts who feel stuck. In this process, we learn to see ourselves as the unique and valued expressions of life that we are.

We all experience distressing emotions and are faced with challenging times in our lives. Sometimes additional support is needed because these experiences can be overwhelming and too much to handle on our own. Sharing your thoughts, feelings, and personal experiences can feel uncomfortable. This is why it is so important to me to provide a safe and caring environment for clients to feel understood and respected. It is my primary goal to build trust and provide support to my clients.

Life can be hard. Therapy doesn't have to be. In a world full of pressure to "get it right" it's easy to feel wrong! Sometimes we are facing unchangeable circumstances. Sometimes we have hard choices to make. Sometimes we just think we're supposed to be different. I believe our greatest struggle is being torn between who we think we should be and who we are able to be. Exploring our origin stories, guiding values, and present choices allows us to align with who we are in a meaningful way. With respectful humor - mostly sarcastic jokes about life's ironies - we can work together to find who you want to be.

Welcome! I am dedicated to providing a calm and supportive presence to help you navigate life's transitions and struggles. Through my work, I offer insights and new perspectives that gently challenge harmful self-beliefs. I believe that each individual has the strength and resilience to overcome challenges and find fulfillment. By creating a safe and non-judgmental space, I aim to guide you towards self-discovery, personal growth, healing, and self-empowerment. Together, we will explore your unique experiences and emotions, uncovering the root causes of any difficulties you may be facing.

We all have the ability within ourselves to make changes and to live our best lives, yet often times we can get in our own way of that progress. Difficulties in our lives are often linked to problems in our relationships with people close to us. Therapy can help us examine our behavior and create ways so that we can remove the roadblocks keeping us from improving upon our relationships. I use many dynamic forms of treatment in order to help you reach these goals. I base my practice in the belief that therapy in itself is relationship-based.

My practice is comprised of several providers. Currently I have spots with providers accepting insurances.

We provide care for diverse families and support individuals through life transitions. We also provide trans affirming care and letters for surgery with 1x appointments.

I believe the power to change, grow, and overcome obstacles lies within each one of us. Sometimes, for many different reasons, we need additional support to identify, and build on the strengths we have within us to accomplish what we want. I have 16 years of experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support clients as they accomplish their goals and overcome life stressors, depression, anxiety, grief and trauma.
