Anxiety, depression, men's issues, trauma symptoms, and feeling stuck in life are areas I often help work through.
Couples therapy is a primary specialty of my practice. No relationship is low maintenance, and we all got room to grow from the patterns we inherited from our families. Couples therapy is helpful to relationships in crisis, at a crossroads, or simply wanting deeper levels of intimacy and connection.

Hurting? Worried? Anxious? Sad? Are you in trouble? How about your child, family, marriage, or loved one? Life can be tough, it is much harder when you are hurting. Have you checked out of life, your friendships, work, or school? Life at times will slap even the most determined person around. You are reading this because some aspect of your life is no longer working like you want it too. It happens to the best of us. You want answers, you are ready to do something.

Stress and the pressures of life can be difficult, especially in a disconnected world. Are you struggling with loneliness, low self-esteem, or anxiety? Many times these issues lead to addictions, ADHD, insomnia/poor sleep, and relationship conflicts. Are you feeling stuck in life or in a situation that continues to repeat itself? Together we can address the issues most important to you on your journey towards a healthier, more fulfilling life.

Finding contentment in life can sometimes be elusive when we are faced with life challenges. We may feel confused about what to do, or our emotions may be overwhelming us in such a way that we cannot clearly see solutions. Whether you are confronting past experiences or current life challenges, I will work with you to identify goals, process thoughts and feelings, and explore solutions. I work with adults of all ages in my practice and I utilize a combination of cognitive, experiential, somatic, and solution focused interventions. I am also trained in and offer EMDR.

Do you find yourself struggling in your family or social relationships? Feeling anxious, depressed or disconnected from those around you? Is a family member struggling with feelings of depression, loneliness, anger outbursts, or social withdrawal? Does your child struggle with social, emotional or behavioral issues at school?
Often, it can help to just have somebody to talk to or a compassionate person to listen and help find solutions. We will work together in a safe, non- judgmental environment to lower the stress in your life and find the best way to move forward for you and your loved ones.

The relationships we lean on for support often leave us feeling isolated and hurt instead. I help my clients repair wounds, rebuild trust, and rejuvenate connection. At your pace, we’ll consider how your past experiences, family background, cultural context, and personal values affect your relationships. From there, we collaborate on how you will choose to move forward.

A good therapist accepts and validates who you are and what you value. This can only happen if you feel compassion and warmth from the therapist you choose. Do you feel troubled by your past? By events or relationships from your childhood? Or perhaps you are unsure of what drives your distress and simply need a safe, supportive person to explore this with. I am interested in getting to know you and to learn about your unique needs.

As a therapist, I prioritize building a genuine therapeutic relationship grounded in empathy and compassion. Our bodies hold trauma and stress accumulated over our lifetimes. My practice integrates EMDR, mind-body modalities, and talk therapy to help clients cope with current stress and heal from trauma. Our life experiences also lead us to develop unhelpful thoughts and beliefs. I empower my clients to recognize and adapt their harmful thoughts patterns, giving them the tools to thrive.

I’m an experienced, active therapist, integrating techniques from models such as Internal Family Systems, EMDR & cognitive-behavioral therapy in my approach to our work. While I’m warm and caring, I’m also direct and focused on the change you seek; in the words one of my teachers, Terry Real, uses to describe his approach, I “avoid being heavy on nurture and short on truth.” I bring diverse professional & life experience, a sensitivity to culture & all other components of your identity, and an array of tools that you can use to find the growth, solutions, well-being, or healing you seek.

Powerful changes can happen in people's lives much faster than they think. I practice Solution-Focused Therapy: I help you see the deepest strengths you have, the things that helped you make it this far. We use your joyful experiences, your best skills, your quirks, and your deepest motivations to help you overcome the challenges you face now. It's simple, positive, and fast. You don't have to learn any new jargon. We won't dwell too long on what you think might be wrong with you. Quite the opposite. I'm more interested in learning what you were doing in the moments you believed there was something right with you. That's the target.

CLINICAL, SPORT & PERFORMANCE PSYCHOLOGY:
Mental Game Coach certified by the
International Golf Psychology Association.
My practice includes working with athletes, performers, and the like-minded. That "thing" of yours (pre-performance anxiety, choking, feeling like a fraud, self-sabotage, etc.) has created enough problems. Enough already. What would you be doing if that "thing" was not in your way? Imagine making that putt, rocking that assignment, nailing that performance, or enjoying the one you are with.

In-person Available! I primarily work with narcissistic abuse survivors as well as empaths and HSP's (which are typically targeted by narcissists). I also work with couples who feel they are in toxic dynamics and feel stuck. This life is hard but having someone who you can talk to is so helpful and I communicate with my clients, not stare at you and expect you to do all talking! I promise you that even when it feels like you just can't do it anymore.. you really can! I personally have experienced much of life's hardships but I'm grateful for that because it gave me the opportunity to help so many others!

You are on the right track: seeking out assistants, allies. Kind of depressed? Anxious? Troubles in your relationship? Feeling alienated or a loss of direction? There are lots of ways to describe it, and initially that's all I'll ask you to do. You'll have the freedom of a confidential discussion and a trained professional to help illuminate issues, set goals, and pursue your concerns. You may want insight into your situation. You may want tools. You certainly want results, and to develop some capacities that you haven't seen for a while. That works for me. And I offer clinical supervision to other therapists as well.

Sometimes life brings challenges which become opportunities to grow and change. It can catch one off guard and may cause disillusion. When that happens, we seek answers, resolutions or someone for validation. As a psychotherapist, I am fortunate to witness miracles everyday with my clients. The smallest step forward is still a miracle. It takes courage to take the smallest step.

Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.
How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.
What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
