Now accepting multiples insurance programs! When trouble arises in life, the emotions that come with it tend to be overwhelming, and it can be hard to find the words to describe the problem. This can block the decision making process and halt forward movement. Seeking outside helps solve this. Some people are skeptical about the role that therapy could play in their life, and I can sympathize. Whether you’re a skeptic, or looking for counsel, please keep reading. 

My job will be to show you just how capable you are. I will teach you how to cope with negative thoughts when they inevitably happen, and help you retrain your brain.

You might be the person everyone else leans on. Capable, perceptive, easy to read a room. And yet privately feel like you've never quite landed anywhere. Maybe you grew up between countries, between cultures, between versions of yourself, and learned early that adaptation was survival. Or maybe you can't point to a single reason, but intimacy feels harder than it should, and you're tired of living so much of your life in your head.

I understand that life is hard. I view mental health from a medical lens, which includes mind, body and spirit. When you catch a cold, you support the immune system and medicate the symptoms. When we encounter challenging life circumstances like a new role as a parent or a caregiver, a loss, or an opportunity- the learning curve is steep. As a therapist, I work to understand the what, with empathy and respect. I work collaboratively, validating and acknowledging the resources available, whether they are within you or in reach. If you are feeling trapped, stuck, helpless/hopeless in your circumstances, I want to help find a way out.

You may understand your patterns and still feel stuck in them, especially in relationships. Many of the brave individuals I work with struggle with anxiety, overthinking, or relationships that leave them feeling disconnected or unsure of themselves. Some notice patterns around self-worth, body image, or a strong inner critic, while others feel the impact of past experiences or trauma. Often, one part understands what’s happening while another feels overwhelmed or reactive. They’re not looking for quick fixes, but for something that helps things truly shift toward a deeper sense of wholeness in mind, body, heart, and soul.
