Do you feel like you just can't catch a break or that life keeps throwing you curveballs? Are you struggling to cope with infertility, pregnancy loss or other health concerns? Do you work in a high stress job that limits your ability to balance work and life? Are you unhappy in your relationship or because you do not yet have the partner you long for? The difficulties of life can weigh us down and limit our ability to live our lives to the fullest. It may feel like you are barely surviving when you want to be thriving. Although it may seem impossible, we will work to help you navigate life's roadblocks and carve a path to happiness.
Together we will work to create a plan to help you take back control over your mood and your life. You will learn skills to help improve communication, coping, and boundary setting. With practice, these changes will become a normal way of life and you will feel more confident in riding out life's rough seas and sailing toward a happier future.
I take a warm, collaborative approach to therapy. As a solutions oriented therapist I specialize in reproductive & other health concerns, relationship concerns, workplace stress, depression, grief, trauma, & anxiety. I also conduct forensic evaluations in civil litigation. I am able to practice in 41 PSYPACT states. I look forward to working with you.

I work with people struggling to cope with life changes, health and fertility issues or work stress/burnout. I collaborate with clients to identify issues causing distress and then engage in problem solving and other tailored strategies to help improve coping. Most clients start by learning new strategies for coping and communication and then explore any barriers to implementing such techniques.
