Achieving peace of mind is a worthwhile goal. When was the last time you put yourself first in the daily grind of taking care of, or doing things for, others? I personally tailor therapeutic strategies to your individual unique needs. I work from a trauma-responsive, strengths-based, and client-centered approach while balancing practical strategies you can walk away with. I can help you navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, grief and loss, family and relationship issues, as well as employment and student stressors. I support in areas of maternal MH, foster care and adoption, and in an LGBTQ+ -affirming environment.

I believe that the journey to wellness is possible through building self-awareness and discovering ways to integrate the body, mind, and soul. My goal is to create a safe space where clients come to know more about themselves in order to live authentically and examine the influence our inner experiences have on our actions and behaviors.

I work with couples and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship distress, phase of life issues, and loss of self. I also work with men on emotional tolerance, emotional expression, self-advocacy, crises of purpose, and gaining comfort with vulnerability. We all face our own unique challenges in our everyday lives. These challenges can range from inspiring to overwhelming, from motivating to diminishing, and anything in between. Sometimes it can be relatively easy to get lost in the vast ocean of life, and we may not even realize anything is off until we are already lost at sea, adrift amongst the waves.

Sometimes, life holds nothing back. We’re totally overwhelmed. It’s all too much. Too much busy-ness, too much hurry, and too much stress. While you’re a master of taking care of everything and everyone around you, taking care of YOU is often forgotten. And your regular pattern of “go, go, go…” leads to anxiety, burnout, or trauma. And so, you’re just…exhausted. You know something has to change. You know life has more to offer. But you’re not sure where to start.

"HELL is PROXIMITY without INTIMACY". If you are physically close to your partner, but feel like thousands of miles away, then you can certainly relate to this definition. I recognize that one of the HARDEST DECISIONS in your relationship IS TO DECIDE WHETHER TO GIVE UP OR TRY HARDER! If you are STUCK, counseling might help you get clarity. My passion is to bring couples emotionally closer, and to help them CONNECT again. I work with individuals and couples going through life transitions (i.e.birth of children) or difficult issues such as affairs, trust, jealousy, and communication issues.
