"I specialize in working with people who have experienced trauma or verbal, emotional, physical or sexual abuse in their families or close relationships. Particularly when abuse happens earlier in life or over a long period, those suffering may develop various symptoms including depression, anxiety, low self esteem, self harm, substance use, and anger issues. I view symptoms as ways of coping that have helped you survive so far. We collaborate in therapy to help you find new ways to relate to yourself and others, and create a more meaningful and satisfying life, however that might look for you."

"Are we a good fit for you? Are you a sensitive person but believe it's wrong to be emotional? Do you often feel overwhelmed and sensitive to your environment? Do you struggle to see yourself in a positive light? Are you often going back and forth from states of empowerment to self-criticism? "

"My life-long passion is to help children, adolescents and families heal. I work with children with a range of presenting concerns from behavior to mood to anxiety. I provide evidence-based treatments within a caring, trusting therapeutic relationship. I love to work with children that are considered "complex" including those who have had early developmental trauma and those who have behavioral difficulties that cause signficant challenges in their homes, schools, and communities. My commitment to parents as they have both successes and struggles is deep. It is through the family and relationships that we can bring true healing. "

"Do you need help getting your marriage/relationship unstuck? Has something hurtful happened in your relationship and you are struggling with the pain of secrets and betrayal?

I have the highly specialized and unique training to get you back on track."

Helping people has always been a passion of mine and I have been fortunate enough through my work as a mental health professional to do just that. In my work as a therapist, I value collaborating with my clients to meet them where they are at, while focusing on their strengths to empower them to achieve their own meaning of success."

"Are you feeling stuck in your relationship & unsure of what to do? Have you been hurt by infidelity, or feel like you and your partner are growing apart? Are you feeling overwhelmed, alone, lost or broken? Are worries constantly running through your head & you just can’t “turn it off”? Life is full of difficult transitions. Relationships end, children leave the nest, jobs are lost, important people in our lives pass away. It can leave you with just enough energy to put on a brave face and “fake” it through the day. But what if life could be different? Making the decision to seek therapy is a brave and powerful 1st step!"

"As a narrative therapist, I take a positive approach to therapy; helping clients build on their strengths and resources as a foundation for change. I believe that therapy can offer clients much more than a band aid for their problems but that it can help transform their lives and relationships in meaningful ways. I believe that therapy does not need to be a long-term process and encourage clients to take an active part in therapy."

"Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder can be overwhelming. There is substantial overlap with anxiety, depression, and difficulty adjusting to an ever-changing life. Many individuals are also challenged with behavioral and sensory issues that are difficult to manage, often resulting in conflicts with family members, coworkers, and classmates. These challenges can quickly grow into a life that feels unmanageable and unhappy. When life gets hard, a little help goes a long way. The chaos and stress can impact all areas of life. But it doesn't have to. You don't have to go it alone."

"I offer therapy services to adults and adolescents. We may have similar struggles, but we all experience these struggles differently. My therapy services are structured around each client's unique needs. I'm passionate about helping people not find, but create a more fulfilling life within themselves and their relationships. I have been helping couples, families, and individuals since 2007. My focus is to help you enrich your life and the lives around you in a caring and judgment free setting."

"Life carries with it many challenges, transitions and choices. I believe that therapy can be very beneficial to most people at some point in their life. I have specialty backgrounds in couples/family relationships, and psychiatric issues such as Depression, Mood Disorder, Anxiety and Trauma. Relationship issues, grief and loss, stress management and physical reactions to stress are common concerns for many. I use a variety of evidence based traditional and holistic treatments to best meet the needs of those who I provide services for."
