If you have a harsh inner critic that never rests, you feel like setting a boundary will lead to you feeling overwhelmed with guilt or you grew up in an environment where your emotions were sidelined, it's likely that you carry the neurological imprint of being an extension of someone rather than yourself.
When you are navigating complex trauma or high-stakes transitions, you don’t just need a therapist—you need an expert with a lifetime of clinical perspective. With over 30 years of experience and specialized certification in EMDR, I provide high-level, in-office care for individuals who require more than just 'talk therapy.'

Do you want to feel like you want to be on a permanent vacation? This feeling can speak volumes to how much stress you are under on a regular basis. Everyday life has become something that you would love to escape from for awhile instead of something you look forward to each day. When your day feels like you just live to get through the hard things it becomes more difficult to know how to change. What’s missing is the enthusiasm, connection, and true joy. Maybe you have reached our limit and something has shifted. It feels like now is time to stop going through the motions and start living fully.

As a drug and alcohol counselor, I envision my ideal client as someone who is deeply motivated to break free from the destructive patterns of substance use but feels trapped by their current circumstances.

This client is someone who recognizes the toll their addiction has taken on their relationships, career, and physical health, and though they feel overwhelmed, they are ready to take the first steps toward change.

You shrink, over-explain, or freeze just when you need your full presence.

As James Baldwin famously said, "not everything that has been faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed unless faced", I also offer you the following poem: "When we feel safe, anything is possible. We become unstoppable. Because we have a firm ground to launch and a safe ground to land. We can then stand. Voice ourselves, show ourselves. Life becomes a dance." With over 15 years of experience carefully providing integrative therapy (e.g., CBT, EMDR, ACT, IFS, EFT, Mindfulness, biofeedback, neurofeedback) and therapeutic assessments, I am excited to work collaboratively with you!

“Change Your Thoughts and You’ll Change Your World”. My goal is to offer and provide support within the therapeutic relationship that allows for you to gain insight on discovering your needs. I believe everyone needs support but struggles with how to ask for help. In my practices I provide the time and space for you to feel heard, supported, and most importantly I provide empathy. Empathy is a powerful word as it defines the ability to sense other people’s emotions, coupled with the ability to imagine what someone might be thinking or feeling. I always try to create a warm, heartening, and empathetic environment with every client.
