Life has a way of surprising us, and those moments can be really hard to carry alone. I work with individuals and emerging adults facing anxiety, grief, depression, perfectionism, trauma, or simply the weight of everyday pressure.

Whatever you're carrying, you don't have to figure it out alone. We'll go at your pace, together.

Psychotherapy works when you're supported by a trained trusted professional. I may be that person for you. Is it time to dig deeper and seek support needed to help you find more joy, more self respect? We all have stress and doubts in our self. Some of us have trouble handling that stress. I will work with you through nonjudgmental support and understanding, to help you better understand who you are, how you got there, and whether a few changes to your thinking and behavior might help you find the joy you are missing, improve your relationships and to better manage your stress, while learning how to show up for yourself.

It’s hard to be human. There are no manuals on how to deal with our thoughts and emotions. Sitting with vulnerability can be scary and uncomfortable. As a Client-Centered clinician I plan to meet you in the here and now and help get you to where you want to be in a holistically happy and healthy manner. We all could use a bit of guidance, and at times, a push in the right direction.

A healthy, satisfying relationship is challenging, whether you strive for a good one with your parent, your spouse or partner, or your child. Each person experiences the relationship differently, and individual needs change.

My therapeutic approach incorporates research and my years of clinical experience working with families, adults and children at all stages of relationships and development. I specialize in treating family members following divorce. Please call with any questions you may have.
