My mission is to assist clients on their journey towards finding solutions, purpose, empowerment and achieving personal growth, balance and happiness. I primarily work with adults who are experiencing challenges in coping with anxiety, depression, relational issues, personal transitions and general life stressors. As a whole, my approach to treatment is collaborative, humanistic and eclectic, although some of my areas of influence include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Based Interventions. I take a compassionate and empathic stance where I am committed to tailoring treatment to meet the needs of my clients.

If you are feeling stressed and overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or having a hard time managing emotions...if you are struggling with relationships, feeling lonely, or isolated - there is hope. Through our work together, you can learn to manage stress better, learn how to have healthy relationships and better communication, learn to understand and work through anxiety and depression, and to process and recover from traumatic experiences. As an EMDR trained therapist, I help individuals heal and grow and thrive - and am honored to take part in others’ journeys toward healing, clarity, and peace.

Hello. Reaching out for help is often difficult, and you did just that by clicking on my page. I approach my work with care and compassion to provide my client's with the most effective form of treatment for them. My style emphasizes present moment awareness as well as the relationship between thoughts and feelings. I believe that no two people are alike, and therefore I combine all of my life experience along with my clinical training to ensure that each of my clients has their own unique experience.

Whether you are grappling with challenges in your life or seeking to enhance your psychological well-being, having the support and guidance of a therapist can often be helpful. I applaud your taking this step and thank you for looking at my service description. With over 40 years of experience as a psychologist, I offer deep listening, clinical knowledge, and practical directions to help you improve your psychological wellness and further your personal fulfillment.

Does anxiety, depression, stress, grief and/or addiction get in your way of living a full life? Is it affecting your health, family, work, school or relationships? When you are faced with such challenges, you may feel stuck, isolated, overwhelmed, hopeless or lost. You are not alone. We all feel like that sometimes. You can have your life back but it can be hard to do it alone. I'm here for you to provide a safe space and support you need. I will be the guiding light to help you move towards the positive changes. Together, we can find ways to reclaim your life.

My work as a therapist centers on relationships and the science of attachment. I work to help couples slow down, and start speaking from a heart space so that you can strengthen your relationship from a place of emotional safety and security. I work with individuals who are working through relational issues, and want to understand or change old patterns that aren't serving you now. I work with adults who deal with anxiety, and there's plenty to be anxious about in the modern world! I focus on helping you develop skills to regulate when anxiety feels overwhelming, and on parsing out what's in or out of our control.

For many of us, the challenges we face in our daily lives can be overwhelming, no matter what form they take. We find ourselves repeating the same unhealthy patterns, yet struggle to understand why. After a while we begin to lose trust in our judgement and grow distant from our intuition, finding it difficult to identify our own guiding voice. So we learn to cope through any means possible, which often emulate ways we have learned to protect ourselves. We find ways to run from the pain and our internal shame through substance use, unhealthy relationships, and other self-destructive behaviors.

My approach to therapy is both relational and practical. Living in a world as beautiful and broken as ours often involves unexpected twists and turns. I help clients of all ages manage anxiety, navigate life transitions, employ healthy boundaries, and effectively communicate their needs. Some of my clients feel stuck in the stuff of life. Others are experiencing significant professional, academic, or relational stress. Many come seeking greater coherence in their understanding of their stories and attachment patterns. What they all hold in common is that they are simply, and splendidly, human.

Something feels off. You’re a pro at people pleasing. At sensing what others want without even meaning to be so good at it. But you have wants, desires, goals, boundaries, too! It hurts to invisible-ize yourself. Hiding who you are and what you really need is isolating. They say to trust your gut but why does it end up feeling like your gut's the defective one? (Hint: It isn't. I repeat: it is not defective!)

Do you tend to overthink & feel preoccupied with worry? Have days when you feel emotionally exhausted or lack energy to follow through? Do you feel disconnected from your body? You might be interested in learning how therapy & yoga work together to bring relief from your daily stressors. Talk therapy is useful to bring awareness and make meaningful connections between the past the present. Yoga is an embodied approach allowing you to discover more about how stress impacts your body. When combined together, you can learn skills to help take control of your thoughts & experience a sense of calm in your mind & body.
