Waitlist for new clients
My ideal clients are women and couples. I specialize in working with women who feel they must constantly have it all together. As an expert on the Superwoman schema, I provide a supportive & empowering space to navigate the pressures of strength, self-sacrifice, & high expectations. We will unlearn patterns of over-functioning, manage anxiety/depression, learn appropriate boundaries, and cultivate healthier relationships with yourself and others. My goal is to support you in embracing vulnerability, prioritizing your mental health, and redefining strength on your own terms.

The ideal client for me is someone who comes to therapy with an idea of what hurts and doesn't know what to do to fix their problems. I am creative in helping you find solutions to your problems that are doable, that fit with who you are and can be used throughout your lifetime. Homework often helps to expedite the process and it might include a book, a handout, an audio, a website or a plethora of other helpful means to get to your therapy goals.

We are all unique and so are the struggles we face daily. Being unique is great, yet there comes a time when we are faced with challenges, feeling stuck, frustrated, angry or simply misunderstood. It is during these times that it is beneficial to seek someone outside of that current situation for fresh insight, an objective perspective and a listening, non-judgmental ear. Sometimes an outsider looking in may be exactly what you need in order to identify and develop the best solution to meet your unique and individual needs. Life is full of ups and downs- in therapy we learn how to maneuver through the waves of life.
