If you have experienced anxiety, you know how awful it can feel at times. Like a ghost, it can come from nowhere and you suddenly have knots in your stomach or shaky hands, chest constriction, or worse - you may feel like passing out or throwing up. There are lots of helpful skills to deal with anxiety once you know the symptoms. Yet anxiety is not always seen for what it is. It can hide behind angry outbursts, procrastination, compulsive behaviors, insecurity, self-deprecation, and tendencies to please others. Yet sometimes, anxiety is a messenger of deeper truths and hidden wounds.
My office partner and therapy dog.
Hope is more than wishful thinking. It is possible to feel well, although it may take courage and hard work to face the pain of your story. I can help you understand your obstacles to wholeness. We can test your beliefs and messages imposed by others. I can help you understand your needs and apply evidence-based interventions including Brainspotting.
The only thing worse than anxiety and depression is facing them alone. I've known both the tears, the heartache and the peace after connecting with compassionate others. Let me walk with you. Please, call or email for a free consultation!

I work with clients who either have difficulty feeling their emotions or report being overwhelmed with their emotions or thoughts. Initially, we'll begin forming a foundation that is to become a safe place for exploration and seeking answers to deep questions. Over time, clients gain insights and tools that make them confident to live the life they want.

I use several theoretical approaches to form an individualized treatment plan for each client. We'll explore not only what brought you to therapy, but also the underlying issues that block your growth. During treatment, I'll help you ask unique questions and connect with the resources within your reach.
