Making changes is hard. This is true whether you are exhausted and know something needs to change, are considering taking a stand against depression or anxiety, or are navigating through a major life transition: the birth of a child, the loss of a loved one, the ending or beginning of a relationship, starting or changing a career. You don't need to do it alone. Feel like yourself again; our counselors can help.

I'm here to help support you along your journey of healing, growth, and discovery. I know how scary and uncomfortable it can be to engage in therapy, and yet I also know how rewarding and transformative it can feel when we finally say yes to the unknown. If you're someone who experiences depression, anxiety, feel lost, unclear, or want to dive deeper into the mystery of who you truly are, I believe I can help you find the strength and motivation to take the next step forward into becoming the person you truly want to be.

You find it hard to forgive yourself after making mistakes. You feel like you have to be hard on yourself in order to change and grow, but find yourself depressed in the process. You go though phases of achieving goals, then find yourself in phases of exhaustion that you fear you'll never recover from. You want to live up to your potential, but you doubt your abilities. You feel like it’s easier to love others more than yourself, but not to trust them. You crave stable loving relationships, but worry about being good enough or fear rocking the boat too hard in your current relationship. You fear being left alone, lost at sea.

My therapeutic approach focuses on the stories we hold about ourselves and how they inform our identities.

I specialize in helping people through difficult times, whether due to a life transition, or to challenging circumstances. It is in these times that we feel most afraid, lost, and unsure of the way forward. It is all too common that we cope with adversity by being hard on ourselves, withdrawing in shame, or disconnecting from what nourishes us. I will help you find the tools and skills within yourself to move forward and create a life in which you feel more connected to yourself and to others.

I strongly believe in the protective and positive intention of all challenging emotions and patterns of thought. My goal is to help my clients explore the sources of these patterns, listen to their unmet needs, and then work with these feelings in order to get the need met in a healthy way. I also encourage clients to increase their tolerance of these uncomfortable emotions, which then allows for growth. I validate, support, and accept clients right where they are, while also challenging them to take the lead in their progress and personal growth.
