Change can come in many forms in our lives. It might come suddenly like a tidal wave, or gradually like a slow dripping leak. It might come in the form of devastating tragedy, difficult choices, broken relationships, or even new opportunities. Although change can be extremely hard, it can also be extremely necessary. Experiencing anything great in life requires us to challenge ourselves to push past our comfort zones. However, we oftentimes avoid change out of fear of the unknown, or self-doubt. Other times, we don’t realize the need for change until we experience pain.

Change is possible. Let's work together to help you achieve inner peace and meaning in life. If you are looking to end patterns or sabotaging habits that stop you from living the quality life you deserve, within yourself or in your relationships, I can help.

We can develop a foundation for improving insight, discovering your inner strengths, learning to live life in accordance to your core values, and learning how to let that guide thinking and behaviors.

Do you feel like anxiety or OCD is holding you and your family hostage from living the life you want to live? Is OCD or anxiety impacting your relationships, job, or daily routine? I have over 12 years of experience and specialized training to treat anxiety/OCD. In 2021, I became trained in the SPACE approach helping parents of anxious children. SPACE is particularly helpful if you have an anxious child who refuses to go to therapy or hasn't found therapy to be helpful. I am also trained in Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) to treat OCD/phobias.

I believe that counseling is a collaborative process between client and counselor. You bring your personal strengths, preferences, and experience. I bring objectivity, encouragement, and tools to help you make the most of your life. If you are struggling with anxiety, obsessive thoughts, and fear , I use an active approach to help you face your fears, when possible.
