If you are looking to heal and recover, hoping to reconnect with your inner joy, and searching for moments of peace, I might be able to help.

Everyone sees you as successful and put-together. Inside, you’re terrified of failing, disappointing people, or being seen as not good enough. You struggle to feel fulfilled. You may not even know what you want. From a young age, you’ve learned to hide your true self and push down your needs so you can take care of others. It’s hard to know how you feel and even harder to trust that anyone will be there for you. In therapy, I’ll help you understand and accept your feelings, needs, and goals and learn how to express them. You’ll discover how to be your true self, leading to more enriching relationships in all parts of your life.

We participate in an empathetic collaboration to address behavioral issues with sensitivity to strengths and limitations. As my clients gain insights into their lives, I encourage them to consider taking actions to affect change. They thereby gain self confidence and a sense of well-being that empower them to reach their goals.

Choosing the right therapist can make all the difference. You may be someone who understands that a behavioral issue is getting in the way of successful relationships at work or at home, but can't figure out how to change it. You may be someone who is going through a life transition such as the birth of a new baby, career change, retirement, or loss of a partner. You may feel anxious, down, or have a general inability to feel happy. You may be someone who is seeking neuroaffirming care from a therapist who is sensitive, or you may feel burnout from masking or trying to conform to a world that doesn’t “get” you.
