Is substance use starting to affect your life? Do you find it hard to love your body? Are medical stressors taking a toll on your mental health? Life knows how to hand out challenge after challenge.

Most of us have negative beliefs about ourselves and that are not serving us, but we continue to feed into these messages. Something as simple as saying that we are not good enough can have big consequences in our lives. Now think about how often we might say that... it is usually often more than we want to admit. We need to learn to overcome our own negative self-talk by fostering, strong healthy connections with those who we feel safe with. We all want to feel good in life, and this looks different for each person.

I strongly believe that the essence of successful treatment is based on estabishing an alliance with the client in which he/she is treated with respect, compassion, understanding and acceptance. Recognizing that not everyone is the same I assess individuals' unique strengths as well as where they are having difficulty. I partner with my clients in defining areas of concern and formulating treatment goals. And I conduct sessions by both actively listening as well as providing direct feedback, interpretation and specific recommendations for effective problem-resolution. I work with individuals, couples and famiies.

I work to create a warm, caring relationship, so that clients can find personal insight, healing, and balance. I encourage clients to work at their own pace and comfort level, using the discoveries and insights from a variety of fields to help clients work toward deeper, lasting emotional healing. I know that most people are not merely looking for a few extra coping strategies, but want real longer-term relief. If you are looking for more than another round of affirmations and deep breathing, I may be a good fit for you.

Feeling overwhelmed, hopeless or stuck? When we are feeling miserable, our life is not moving in the direction we want, and everything we have tried so far has not worked - it can lead us to despair. These feelings are only made worse when we believe that there is no one we can turn to or no one else could understand. I am here to say that you do not have to go through this alone, and despite how it may seem right now, these feelings do not have to dominate your life. Working together, we would collaborate to try new strategies so that you can move closer to the life you want to live.

There are times when the best decision is to seek an outside, unbiased, professional to help renew balance in our lives.

》》No current openings, please email to be notified when openings become available.《《 Have you ever been to the doctor's office and, after telling them your symptoms, they give you that "Oh, is that all?" face? Then you spend the rest of the appointment trying to convince them that you are actually ill. It's like you're put in a position where you have to justify having made the appointment in the first place. I believe therapy should be the exact opposite of this. Therapy should make people feel validated, feel heard. You deserve a place to feel understood, and I would be honored to provide this to you.

It takes a lot of courage to seek help. I welcome you to a safe space for exploring exactly what you need.

Perhaps you feel alone with your thoughts or worries or controlled by the negative “voices” in your head? Are you and your partner fighting more or growing distant? I can help you identify your sticking points and find relief.
