I help couples regain love, find shared meaning and improve ability to listen and be heard. Additionally, the transition to parenthood, while longed for, can place huge strains on relationships.

I work with a diversity of adults and couples experiencing relationship issues, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and life transitions. You may get into a pattern of conflict with your partner that feels repetitive. You may be struggling to find a sense of balance or hope, navigating life transition, feeling afraid to engage in activities you once enjoyed. You may be experiencing self-judgment, low self-worth, shame or just seeking change. I view these struggles as normal responses to past wounding, and an opportunity for deeper growth and acceptance. When you feel seen and heard in therapy, deep healing is possible.

Sometimes it is difficult to make sense of thoughts and feelings, especially when many of us are told not to listen to what is happening inside. People seek therapy because they want to have a more satisfying life, and have been unable to achieve their goals due to internal and external stresses. It is difficult to discover what we already know and to bring that knowledge usefully into the world in the midst of the incessant demands of everyday life. I work with adults, adolescents and families on anxiety, depression and interpersonal problems that cause them concern. I find it very rewarding, working together toward a richer life.

Do you sometimes wonder if past incidents like sexual assault/abuse, dysfunctional family, accident/illness or chronic stress are impacting your current life, emotions and relationships, even if you've already worked through the shock of it?

My focus is on releasing trauma, depression, anxiety and the emotional components of chronic conditions from the mind and body to facilitate healing using a holistic and integrative approach.

Addictions and trauma can have negative impacts on individuals and families. They can also be opportunities for growth and healing. In a safe environment, I work with clients to identify their inherent ability to heal and grow from the impact of addiction and trauma in their life.

It can sometimes be intimidating to seek help for mental health. You deserve to find someone who will listen to learn and understand. Feeling overwhelmed with school, work, family relationships, or low self-esteem? You have come to the right place to be heard and to get the guidance and support you are seeking.

Life brings us experiences which cause us stress, stretch our capacity to cope. We respond with depression and anxiety. We resort to ineffective behaviors such as substance use, attempting to maintain our stability. The impact on us can be devastating and we can spiral out of control, often resulting in a disruption in our relationships, ability to work, ability to manage tasks and affairs and our ability to find satisfaction or meaning in our lives. Using mindfulness based approaches and Internal Family Systems to remove blocking emotions and beliefs can help find balance and promote healing.

I am skilled to handle any situation which may come my way; however, I would have to say that I am most skilled at working with clients who suffer from Anxiety Disorders and Trauma.
