If you’ve made it here, I’m sure you’d like to feel more in control and powerful without neglecting the people and things you care about. The problem is that daily stressors, illness, family pressures, lack of boundaries and trauma keep us feeling stuck and emotionally overwhelmed. Therapy helps us clarify our values, increases emotional resilience, decreases overall stress, allows us to feel understood and gives us our power back. I work with women ages 19+ and the LGBTQ+ population to help you achieve these goals in a safe, affirming environment.

Struggling to adjust to a major life change? I help people who are experiencing anxiety, sadness, indecision and/or isolation stemming from a shift that has happened in their life. Whether it is a recent or pending break up, the loss of a loved one, or a recent move, change can be extremely challenging and anxiety provoking. Therapy gives you the space to talk about what's going on in your life and gives you the opportunity to learn new tools so you can successfully deal with what you're experiencing. It's easy to get trapped in unproductive patterns when you aren't where you thought you'd be in life, and therapy can stop that.

Waitlist for new clients
Hi and welcome! I want to congratulate you for taking the first step in recognizing that you may need support in the areas that you are struggling with. Step two is finding a provider that you feel comfortable working with. You are likely resilient AF, find that you are in need of support, and probably take care of others, but who takes care of you? This is a place to be taken care of when you care for the rest of the world. If you are motivated to make changes in your life, then let’s schedule a phone consult to determine if you would like to start working with me.

I offer Co-Parent Counseling to divorced couples who believe that children should be put first when a divorce happens, and wish to improve cooperation and communication. With couples who have low to moderate conflict I also offer Parent Coordination services whether voluntary or court ordered. I provide therapy to adults and older teens who are experiencing distress due to transitions in their life such as a role change, loss or relationship difficulties. I approach problems from a BioPsychoSocial perspective, taking into account all of the factors in one's life, and how they might contribute to - and help to SOLVE - problems.

Every parent has their own hopes and expectations for life with their child. You have probably imagined a life full of fun-filled memories. However, when unexpected anxiety or ADHD becomes a part of your family dynamic, you might be left feeling overwhelmed and confused on how to connect with and support your child.

There can be so much pressure to know who you are at a young age, but most people don’t! Therapy can be a place to explore who you are, who you want to be, and how you want to get there. As a therapist I care about empowering you to find your voice and engage in value-congruent action. I strive to work collaboratively, be mindful of power and privilege, and always seek to understand the world as you see and experience it so we can better find your path forward.
