Licensed Marriage and Family Therapy and Master Certified Life Coaching available for Individual, Couple, Child, and Family Counseling. I offer real solutions for Communication, Anger, Depression, ADHD, Anxiety, PTSD. When we stress our reactivity leads to regressive and unhealthy coping behaviors. Unfortunately, the mental health field often uses diagnoses to label behavior when really what is needed is counseling around attachment, communication and various coping skills. You are not your diagnosis, and our therapeutic process includes removing or reducing stress and establishing a healthy, constructive coping strategy.

Whether you need to do some healing or just want some help sorting yourself out, we can do that together. Anything from the very small (counseling) to the very large (trauma-focused psychotherapy with internal family systems or IFS), or doing energetic and somatic work (trauma and tension release exercises or TRE), I offer to follow or guide you on whatever journey you need to take. Part of this journey may be building skills or developing coping strategies. Another part may be forming a totally new relationship to whatever challenges you face, whether those challenges seem to be outside or inside of you.

I have been trained in Trauma focused, evidenced based therapy modalities, specializing in anxiety and depression.
When we are struggling with our mental health, sometimes talk therapy doesn't feel helpful. Often, learning new things we can do to feel better is much more effective. This is where I come in! My work is grounded in mindfulness, neuroscience and teaching techniques that have proven to help people feel better and thrive. Using a very present day focused, action-oriented style, I help people eliminate problematic anxiety (or panic) and repetitive cycles of depression. If your goal is to improve your mental health through empowered action- I can help!
