Life can be hard. Do you find yourself feeling unsatisfied, stressed with daily demands or overcome with difficult emotions? Are you struggling with a life change or conflict and would like to delve deeper into your purpose? Perhaps you feel unfulfilled or as though something is missing. Our sense of who we are is inevitably shaped by our history which often influences current living. However adversity & unmet longings do not have to rule our lives or obstruct our joy. Challenges can be utilized as growth opportunities to help us fully thrive when we learn to integrate them in a manageable way so to experience relief from suffering.

I have a special interest in teaching of behavioral management, mindfulness, somatic experiencing, EMDR, emotional regulation, and distress tolerance. Cognitive behavioral resources and tools are the foundation of all my work.

Hi there. "All of You is Welcome Here". You can Not-Want-To-Come-In for therapy & still give me a call. Your curiosity & your skepticism are welcome. This is often the root of conflict for us, right? There is a part of us that is curious, open to change. Yet as we strive to live in concert with our beliefs & values with high hopes to evolve, to be seen, known & understood some illusive, habituated roadblocks reappear. Welcome to the human dilemma. The good news: we can work with ourselves. Support is necessary from time to time. That's natural (like you).
