Clients that find me usually feel that trauma has informed or altered their life in some way. Or they face personal or relational distress. I meet each client with their unique challenges and life experiences and offer a place to explore what you are needing in therapy. My ideal client wants to understand and grow to their full potential and I am here as a guide to offer tools, options, a place to process your emotions and/or trauma. Adults that have been through child abuse, mental illness in family, addiction, sexual abuse, relationship distress, anxiety and depression.

On the surface, the world sees you as the one who ‘always has it together’ - but on the inside, you’re starting to feel like you’re falling apart. You feel like you're working overtime to push down those uncomfortable feelings (you know, the ones that have always been lurking in the background) - except no matter how hard you try, you’re finding yourself more anxious, ungrounded, and on edge than ever before. You want your body to feel more at ease. You want to feel more connected (to yourself, to others). You want to see (and trust) what others see. But, you’re just not sure how.

If you are reading this, take heart, as you've already demonstrated your courage. Many people, if not most, never seek the help they need, professionally or personally. As a therapist, my philosophy is that every person is unique in their own way, and this requires a unique solution to the challenges you face. People are incredibly complex, and many times this is why cookie cutter interventions often fall flat, because the client is not fully understood before interventions are prescribed.

During times of life changes, trauma, grief, and loss it is easy to forget about your inherent strengths and resilience when you are struggling to function in your daily activities and create inner peace. Your experiences may feel like they are piling up against you, you may feel unbalanced, and may be are struggling to find a way to maintain safety and security for yourself. During times of need, you may forget how to navigate through life's challenges and take care of yourself. I work with individuals who are trying to create stability and wellness in all areas of their lives with a supportive guide by their side.

Evening appointments available - You move through life feeling misunderstood or that you “don’t belong.” You feel this need to people please, to mask, or maybe even be “perfect” in order to be accepted (even though deep down you know you might be shrinking yourself). You try one thing and then another but nothing’s really working (or if it is, it never really feels good enough). You hold an innate desire to be yourself and to be accepted and loved for who you are. You long to create deep connections with others who celebrate your soul but you aren’t quite sure where to begin or how to get there.
