Are you looking for a therapist that feels relatable and like a real person? If you're anything like I was when I first saw a therapist as a young adult, you crave that authenticity from your counselor. I promise to never ask you "and how does that make you feel?" with a straight face. Don't get me wrong, I *will* ask about your feelings, but I'm not into going through the motions and acting a role. Do you want to spend the time and effort it takes to get down past surface symptoms to the real deep work, to be able to live more comfortably in your own skin, to be able to feel your emotions, not just think them? If so, contact me.

Are there parts of you that feel overwhelmed, overstimulated, disconnected and burnout? Do you feel like your relationship with your partner has changed after having children? New moms and parents can often feel that there has been so much emphasis on taking care of baby, that they end up feeling that their own needs and wants don't matter. I am a mother myself and am passionate about working with those on their journey into and through both motherhood and parenthood. I enjoy working with both mothers and couples.

Life happens. Everything is running smoothly in our lives and then something happens that throws us off balance: a relationship breakup, the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, divorce, or a trauma. Instead of a single event, it can also be the buildup of stress or the accumulation of various life experiences. Sometimes we just want to learn more about ourselves. It can even be a wound from our past from which we have difficulty healing. All of us experience obstacles in our lives that can become overwhelming.
