Do you ever wonder where the instruction manual is for being an adult? It sure seems like there should be one. Adulthood is full of transitions, relationships to navigate, changes to adjust to, as well as unexpected circumstances that can lead us to feeling an overwhelming amount of uncertainty. And sometimes all that uncertainty leads us to feeling quite off balance, such that it’s not manageable anymore or at least gives us insight it certainly could be better! The good news is there is a way to gain or improve your sense of confidence and resiliency in the face of life's uncertain moments.
I specialize in working with individual adults and couples. In this work we will focus upon improving healthy boundaries and self-advocacy, learn healthy communication styles, and master the skills to navigate life transitions, anxiety and conflict in healthy ways. We will improve your emotional intelligence to guide healthier responses to your feelings.
When beginning my own therapy many years ago, my therapist once said it is hard guiding someone to a place you haven’t been to yourself. In my work as your therapist I will meet you without judgment and with a healthy dose of compassion knowing all too well the journey of getting to a place of feeling emotionally grounded and confident.

I work with clients struggling with uncertainty, confidence, difficulties within partnered relationships or life transitions. During therapy we will explore how past experiences may be contributing to present-moment concerns and then transition into improving things in the here-and-now by increasing emotional intelligence, self-advocacy and learning healthy responses to emotional intensity.

My treatment approach is predicated upon a belief that controlling our emotions is not a practical strategy. Rather, gaining insight into and properly identifying our feelings is the critical skill. This will lead us to healthy responses, including advocacy of these feelings, allowing us to become more self-aware, confident, and deepen our sense of connectedness within trusting relationships.
