My goal is to help you move towards developing more satisfying ways to cope, find confidence, and gain control of your life."

" I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Psychotherapist with a speciality in Mind/Body/Spirit connection. I use Mindfulness and IFS as a vehicle of change, growth, self reflection and healing . My ability to be fully in the here and now, the present moment, creates a unique field where people find calm, reach powerful realizations and from there, grow. My unique process helps my clients find calm, compassion, containment, the curiosity to explore, connection to themselves and others, centeredness and the ability to truly care for themselves and those around them. "

"For more than a decade, I have successfully helped individuals, couples, and families find greater clarity about what they want their life to stand for and how to pursue that life. Within a supportive therapeutic relationship, I help my clients attain the vibrant and valued life they desire. My approach in therapy is active. I work based on the assumption that clients are able to achieve rapid and significant changes in their behaviors. The interventions used in this approach help clients access alternative ways of "problem solving" that utilize the resources beyond the "common-sense" mind. https://effective-therapy.com/"

"Hello, I know seeking out a therapist is a bit intimidating and an important decision. I provide a warm environment, inviting my clients to get acquainted with themselves on a deeper level. In this process, healthy changes can manifest and possibilities that have seemed out of reach can begin to be considered and worked towards. I particularly like to help clients to help themselves get unstuck from unhealthy patterns as well as getting their energy flowing positively and creatively. Working collaboratively we can identify what is blocking you from getting to where you want to be in your life."

"You know how most smart, accomplished professionals have a lot going right in their lives but there is this one "if only" part of their lives that keeps them up at night. They are feeling worried, frustrated & anxious. And they are such wonderful people that you just wish they could have what they want. Maybe this feels familiar & you can relate to wanting something to be different so badly. But for some reason it just doesn't seem to change. This is when we feel disconnected from our most powerful, carefree selves & we're not sure how to find relief."
