You have exhausted your resources trying to solve your current challenges and are seeking outside counsel, maybe for the first time. It feels daunting, seeking out a stranger to share what has been going on and wondering where to start. You come with strengths like perseverance - it has gotten you this far and you continue to seek answers. You are curious and willing to ask questions. You have courage, to share what is happening, to come as you are. You are someone who appreciates learning and is open to new perspectives because as Einstein said - “No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it."

You feel alone even when you're around others. Things that used to bring you joy are not on your schedule anymore. Your thoughts of work, school, relationships, and even food are overwhelming. You want to find answers but don't know where to begin. That is until now. You have taken the difficult step just to get here. This tells us both that things can get better, and they will get better. I want to collaborate with you, support you, and dedicate myself to helping you find those answers. Let's take this courageous journey together and find the way to feeling fulfilled, happy, and enjoying life.

We all struggle at times and life can feel overwhelming and unmanageable. I am so happy that you are taking the first steps in determining what you need to lead a happier, more fulfilled life. I know how difficult it can be to acknowledge that your life may not what you envisioned and it is a privilege to work through these challenges with you. My goal is to help you transition from a place of struggle to a place of hope by providing a safe and comfortable environment to discuss these personal life challenges. I provide a warm and collaborative approach offering guidance, support, insight, and hope for a more meaningful life.

Life is often full of demands on time, energy and resources that can take a toll on our physical and emotional well being. I work with children, adolescents, adults and families to cope with these demands while also helping them identify their strengths and potential so that they may achieve a more balanced, fulfilling and enjoyable life.

You who are highly sensitive and feel a lot, welcome! You'll explore more deeply with me than in traditional talk therapy. You’ve likely tried psychotherapy before but have noticed that the work has either gone nowhere or taken you only so far, or you felt misunderstood. With an uncanny and intuitive ability to really “get” people from many walks of life, I will invite you to go beneath your thoughts, connect with your body and emotions, and gently access the root of your emotional discomfort and hurts to facilitate noticeable shifts with each session.

If I am not for myself, who will be for me? If I am only for myself, what am I? If not now, when? (Hillel, 2000 years ago). I'm not content with you feeling accepted and supported. I want you to acquire the knowledge and skills needed to live congruently with your personal values and not with fear of judgment or failure. I want you to be able to nurture and comfort yourself, but also to motivate and push yourself to act in your own best interests. l want you to attach yourself to something greater than yourself and to lessen the time you spend worrying about the future or reliving the past.

I have a foundation in humanistic and cognitive behavioral therapies, I am trained in motivational interviewing, and have a specialty in dialectical behavior therapy.

Specialty populations include essential workers, professionals maintaining wellness, balance, and recovery, perfectionism, and persons facing difficulties resulting from the impact of chronic bullying, feelings of emptiness, and/or feelings of purposelessness.

I offer Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to adults and young adults who are experiencing anxiety, exploring identity and meaning (e.g. “Who am I?”), navigating stressors related to school/work, navigating difficult family dynamics, processing relationship questions and/or seeking to live out their faith or values with authenticity. ACT is an empirically validated form of counseling that can help you grow more mentally flexible, open to your full lived experience, and connected to what you care about. We can work together to foster greater depth, freedom, and meaning in your life.

Everyone seeks love and happiness in their lives, but for many of us, this requires work. Although being intimately attached to another can bring healing and joy, sometimes we begin to question our relationships.

It is my goal to help couples find their way back to each other by empowering them with the tools to understand each other and heal themselves and their relationships.
