Diagnosis I have helped clients with are anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, OCD,
grief
and
loss
, life transitions, gender identity issues, chronic illness’/chronic pain, substance use disorders, and so much more.
My role as a therapist is to create a safe space for clients to discuss their mental health concerns. I view therapy as a collaboration between the therapist and the client and strongly believe that the client is the expert of their own life. No one can know you better than you! What I can do is help to guide, introduce healthy coping skills, help clients challenge the negative thinking patterns they may be experiencing, create a safe place for clients to process traumatic life experiences, etc. As a therapist, I take a client centered approach and strongly believe in meeting clients where they are.

Do you ever forget how you got to work? Is life overwhelming, but you have no one to talk to? Do you hold it in, thinking it will go away? Some time in your life, you may be faced with the analogy of “your life vs. a bottle of soda.” There may be things shaken or flipped upside down in your life and you may want to explode. Knowing what happens to a bottle of soda & knowing people react differently, everyone’s version of “exploding” may come in various forms. As a therapist, I strive to find ways to turn your impairments into functionalities. Regarding the soda analogy, let’s “relieve pressure, open diligently, & consume slowly.”

Please consider a free consultation if you believe you’re dealing with anxiety, depression,
loss
and
grief
, personal trauma, post-traumatic stress, anger management, relationship issues, separation or divorce, self-esteem, parent effectiveness, or personal transitions, e.
To paraphrase a Greek philosopher, the only thing constant is change; in fact, life is full of changes and challenges. When feeling confident and strong, we can usually adapt fairly well to stresses and obstacles. It's different, though, when unpleasant emotions or complex issues seem to drain practically all the energy we can muster just to get through the day. Feeling overly confused or frustrated, maybe even lost or helpless, might mean it's time to reach out to someone who can help us identify, work through, and manage whatever is getting in the way of our happiness and peace of mind. I could be just that person for you.

I am a mindfulness-based psychotherapist working both in-person and providing Telehealth. Together we will work to identify your personal strengths, and challenge negative thoughts and core beliefs using evidence-based mindfulness techniques and trauma-focused therapies, including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing). EMDR is a therapy that reduces triggers and distressing thoughts, feelings, or memories that remain after difficult or traumatic events. EMDR can help after a one time event, like a car accident or traumatic birth, and for chronic adverse experiences that have built up over time.

Grief Therapists
How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.
When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.
Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.
What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
