Secure, confident adolescents and families are not born, but created. Keeping in mind children only have one childhood - I use an experiential community based style for children and their families who have experienced violence/abuse, unexpected life transitions, and fractured relationships. My work is to help my clients regain a sense of trust and a confident sense of self. Living with significant life stressors such as divorce, violence, grief and other transitions is difficult for anyone of any age, but especially teens. We all need a space to explore the internal workings of our heart and mind with someone who can listen.

You may be someone who always feels alone in a crowd, or someone who feels like you try so hard to connect to others but never actually experience a feeling of connectedness. Life has been full of relationships and daily demands. The people you have in your life need a lot from you but they never really give back the way you need. Actually, you’re not sure you’ve ever gotten what you need and it feels awful. And now, now you are a partner and you don’t know how to make your relationship work. Or, you are parent, and your kids are draining everything you have to give. It feels hopeless, frustrating, and lonely.

Have you just been feeling every kind of ‘stuck’ these days — be it in your relationships, and/or, within yourself internally lately? Longing to experience that fruitful, safe, energizing, and wholesome space in which emotional security helps cultivate? Do you long to reconnect with yourself + in your relationships again but feel a guard or emotional block to feeling that sense of synergy again? Try as you might to each repair the issue and work to feel seen/heard, it just feels like this never-ending cycle of the same themes: mismatched communication, things getting escalated, shutting down and/or getting more heated & anxious?

Transitions are hard, whether they are expected or not. From child to adolescent/teen, high school to college, and from college to “adulthood.” Many transitions brings about changes in mood and feelings, as well as changes in the family dynamic. Whether you are a parent struggling to communicate better with your child/teen, an older child/teen trying to navigate your burgeoning independence, or an emerging adult who is confused and overwhelmed by life, my hope is to provide a space to gain clarity, peace, and a sense of relief.

My passion is helping individuals and couples develop the tools to thrive. So often, we feel pressure to shrink ourselves to fit into external expectations. Therapy is a place to break free from those expectations and explore all aspects of yourself. We focus on how your past and present experiences impact your emotional wellness. By drawing connections between your emotions, thoughts, and experiences, one can learn how they impact your life and move towards healing and a meaningful life. Specific to couples therapy, I enjoy helping couples discover the underlying emotions driving discomfort and disconnection, leading to change.

Everyone has a story. Our stories say something about who we are and how we manage life, how we get our needs met and how we relate. We all have the same basic needs for love, acceptance, connection, significance and purpose. Life can be full of joy and laughter, and at other times there can be deep hurt and sorrow when we need someone with an understanding heart and mind to join us in our journey. My heartfelt compassion and commitment to each person I serve, specifically caring for their unique needs makes all the difference.
