career
assets.

Distracted. Lonely. Confused. Sound familiar? Are you your own worst enemy? Has indecision or a "dumb" choice messed up your
career
, school or personal growth? Do you agonize over decisions? Or are plagued by critical thoughts? You may ask, "Why is this so difficult?" But, you want help. But, you want more than being asked, "How does that make you feel?" You want someone who gets you, gives honest feedback, and offers tools to take ownership of your life. So, let's have a conversation to start moving your life forward.

I also specialized in treating anxiety due to multicultural issues (loss of identity,
career
issues, & dysfunctional family dynamics).
We all go through emotional storms where we feel emotionally and physically stuck; we worry too much and lose control of ourselves. Do you find yourself thrown off balance by your childhood trauma? Childhood traumatic experiences such as abandonment, abuse, and neglect lead to social anxiety. My approach is solution-focused and tailored to your needs and goals. I am committed to providing a profound sense of safety and offering compassionate and actionable guidance to all my clients.

I also specialize in working with individuals experiencing life transition issues such as
career
/academic concerns and relationship stress.
I work primarily with adults who are looking to manage symptoms of Anxiety, Depression, and Trauma. I will be with you on the journey of healing to discovery, recovery, and connection to your true self. I approach therapy with a person-centered mindset to create as comfortable and welcoming an environment as I can. I believe the trust built between you and a therapist is one of the more powerful tools we as clinicians can offer, and I hope to garner that trust in my own practice.

Hello, I work with individuals seeking a better understanding of themselves and their relationships and wanting to improve how they manage their emotions and anxiety.

Areas of focus (Individuals & Couples): relationship issues/skills-building,
career
issues, depression, anxiety, self esteem, eating disorders, women's issues, sexual orientation issues, LGBT issues, life transitions, divorce / break ups, postpartum mood disorders and creativity issues.
You already possess the inner resources and capacity needed to heal. At certain times, however, we all need help gaining access to that nurturing capacity: a kind of 'Assisted Self Discovery.' When our minds, bodies, & emotions are all supported together in a safe process of present-oriented exploration, the potential for change is remarkable. I utilize an eclectic approach. Each session is tailored to your unique needs & personal goals. Long-lasting symptom relief/decreased suffering & achieving a more fulfilling life are priorities that guide my work with clients.

I treat depression, anxiety, couple conflicts, and
career
issues.
(Note: I am NOT the therapist known as "the Angry therapist." We share the same name =) ). I understand how hard it can be to find a quality therapist, counselor, or life coach. It is no easy task to find someone who not only understands the issues you are working on, but who also "gets you" as a person. It is my hope to make this search easier. Whether you decide to call me for a free consultation, set up an appointment with me, or let me provide you referral, I hope that after talking with me, you are one step closer to finding the help you seek.

My clients are high-functioning adults and couples who privately struggle with injured self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and resentment in their relationships. When, as children, we experience mistreatment or dysfunctional family dynamics, our nervous system gets impaired - making it harder for us to feel good about ourselves and harder to have fulfilling relationships. My
job
is to help your nervous system heal from the burdensome hurts of childhood injustices, so we can reduce any chronic feelings of self-doubt, inadequacy, and dissatisfaction. My work aims to promote emotional healing and relational transformation for my clients.

I am not accepting new clients at this time. Please feel free to reach out at a later date to inquire about openings. As a therapist my
job
is to create a safe space for one to gain greater self-awareness in order to achieve personal goals. Whether we are processing past trauma, exploring family history, or learning mindfulness skills I am here to support you along the way. I tell my clients that my role as a therapist is to hold up a hypothetical mirror and allow space for reflection so that they can truly see their own strengths and develop tools in areas where they feel are lacking.

Do you ever imagine a world where you feel closely and intimately connected with yourself and with those around you? If your ‘growing up’ was anything like mine; you were not prepped for this type of life. We live in a culture of cut-off. We are simultaneously told to be ruggedly-independent free-sprits, yet we are supposed to also have robust and meaningful relationships. Confusing. Right? Here’s the deal, there’s no ‘right’ way to live life or to do relationships. Working together; it’s our
job
to find a tailor-made path for you. No rigid rules. Let’s find that connection and intimacy that fit you and your relationships.

I believe deeply in the transformative potential and enduring nature of psychotherapy. When we're feeling stuck, confused or alone, therapy can help us to untangle our emotions, clarify our struggles, and better understand ourselves and others - ultimately forming inroads to real and lasting change. I am a compassionate and collaborative therapist: I establish a safe, non-judgmental space where our mutual exploration of your relationships, family history,
career
, sexuality, or whatever is troubling you currently - as well as aspects of our therapeutic relationship - will open pathways to new awareness and opportunities for welcome change, growth and healing.

I'm a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist with two decades of experience helping people deal successfully with anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress; matters of self direction, identity, and confidence; grief and loss; creative blocks and
career
concerns; bi-polar and panic disorders; substance abuse and addiction; and family and relationship issues.
It's been said that the ultimate purpose of psychotherapy is to introduce a person to herself or himself. The struggles of life can cause us to lose touch with our true thoughts, our true feelings, our true selves and, as a result, we can become dissatisfied and unhappy living the life that we think we’re supposed to live rather than the one we truly desire. Effective psychotherapy can reconnect us with our authentic selves and, once that has been accomplished, everything is possible. It is this principle that guides all of the work I do with my clients.

Therapy is safe and confidential: Dare To Be MESSY! You’re feeling stressed by your
career
, building relationships, getting along with work colleagues, while anxious about life, and need someone who will help you!.
I am a specialist who helps LGBTQIA+ people using Affirmative therapy, and people in highly demanding careers. Figuring life out as an LGBTQ+ person is draining and anxiety can rise. You will feel more relaxed! Your self esteem will not be low for long as we navigate the journey together! You are exhausted as you try to manage it all with your inner-critic snapping at you. I'm gay myself, so I understand how weird this world can feel. Let's work together to bring back a sense of ease and calm. You can learn how to deal with stress, overwhelm, and feelings of unease.

Are you tired of ending your days full of overwhelm, fear and anxiety? Are you juggling a high power
career
to family life at home? The constant thinking and juggling all the things is making you feel stuck and with absolutely no time to care for yourself. All the while becoming more distant from your partner and being robbed of spending quality time with your children. You are dreading the days and can't seem to keep up with your long list of to-dos. You just don't know what else to do.

Perhaps you are feeling anxious, sad, or “stuck.” You may be struggling with a transition, such as becoming a new parent, starting a new
job
, coping with a loss, or adapting to life after a difficult medical diagnosis. Or, perhaps you find yourself overwhelmed by fear and negative feelings for no apparent reason at all. If any of this sounds familiar to you, residual, unprocessed feelings from the past may be holding you back from living the life you desire. At Onward Healing, we specialize in using online EMDR therapy to help you heal the wounds of your past, to enrich your experience of the present, and to clear a path onward.
