I have an incredible passion for people and always have had. In my experience as a nurse and as a therapist, I have enjoyed teaching, encouraging, and creating possibilities for hope and healing. My belief is that when we feel safe enough we become more genuine and more capable of loving and living incredible lives. We laugh more, play more, rest better and have more compassion for others. My hope is that you learn to be your best self, genuine, true to yourself and to learn the art of self-care, establishing healthy boundaries and a support system regardless of a painful childhood and difficult life circumstances.

Overcoming obstacles can be difficult, especially if you don't have the support you feel you need. Sometimes these difficulties lead to anxiety, depression, trauma, or chronic stress. Unfortunately, "normal" life transitions can make us feel overwhelmed. If you feel like you're in a season of experiencing difficulties, please know you're not alone. You may need added support to help you get through to the other side. If you find yourself in this situation, I can help.

I think most of us realize that it is an understatement that life can be challenging working through the trauma(s) large or small that we may have experienced throughout our lives, and dealing with our relationships with family (partners, our children, parents other family members) friends and our jobs. My approach to therapy has been based the belief that that we each have an ability to heal, and that we each have an inner wisdom and intuition to know what we each need to work on and to know when we are ready to work on particular issues.

If you struggle with anxiety or depression, you know how difficult it can be to cope. When anxiety is at its worst, it feels like something awful is about to happen. Without knowing how to respond, it’s easy to get trapped in what seems like an endless pattern of worry and avoidance. Depression feels exhausting, hopeless, and sad. Motivation and activity decline, and it’s hard to believe that things will ever get better. Imagine being more active, skilled, and competent, communicating more effectively in relationships, being more productive at work or school, and feeling more satisfied with life.

Meet Our Therapists
We all feel stuck in life, but sometimes we can really struggle trying to get back on our feet. Our difficulties can be compounded by anxiety, depression, trauma exposure, or unresolved wounds from earlier in life, leaving us wondering what's wrong with us and why it's taking so long to feel better. This can especially be true for those of us who feel unsupported by family members we've spent our who life trying to please. As if that weren't enough, these struggles can be amplified for people accustomed to self-reliance.
