I tailor treatment to each individual client, while maintaining a strong therapeutic relationship.
Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck? Has a depressive episode led you to feel deeply alone? I provide a supportive outlet for teens and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, or anger issues. I view my therapy approach as a collaborative team effort with you (and sometimes your family unit) to work together to improve the quality of life for everyone involved. Through empathy and therapeutic humor, I strive to create a safe place in which you can grow.

My approach is first to provide a safe space for you to discuss what brings you here. From there we can tailor an approach that's best for you and your goals. I use approaches related to CBT, Positive Psychology, Mindfulness, Coaching and EMDR. These can help you process what is contributing to any symptoms related to anxiety, stress, relationship issues, depression and beyond. I am here to assist you to find the solutions and access your innate ability to heal and work through issues. The point of therapy is to become more resilient to life, more authentic and freer to live in a way that is more fulfilling for you.

You’re hitting a breaking point in your life or relationship and need help from someone who gets it. You feel overwhelmed and worried about your relationship all the time. There’s this voice inside your head telling you that “I’m the problem” when things go wrong. Before you know it, you learn to downplay your needs or bargain your values to “fix it.” Yet the problem is still there. Instead of feeling valued and loved, you feel lost and hurt in the relationship that once cheered you up and gave you the encouragement to be you. You find yourself wondering if your partner still wants you and if you’re enough.

Most people that enter therapy are stuck...whether it's in relationship conflicts, depressive cycles or life ruts. What helps to get 'unstuck' is a different view and new interactions. I believe all people and situations can change if you want them too. I work well with motivated and dedicated people and help you to find new solutions to your daily problems and conflicts. I am a very interactive, directive, and coaching based therapist who believes that without the skills necessary, the problems interactions will remain the same.

Few things are as miserable as damaged trust in a relationship. This takes many forms. You’re mad, hurt, and don’t know if you want to stay or not. When you’ve done things you regret, you feel lost, guilty, confused, and conflicted. When it is you that has been emotionally hurt, you feel betrayed and now your safe place is gone. Frequent ugly fights leave you resentful and walking on eggshells, waiting for one to crack. Your person is openly and publicly disinterested, critical, or unsupportive. Then there is infidelity, which feels like a bomb exploded in your life, and now you are living a 24/7 bad dream.

Going through transitions and changes in life can be pretty scary and, quite frankly, sometimes it really sucks. Whether it is in your personal life, at work, at school or in your relationship (or all of the above!), you might feel stuck and uncertain about what to do and where to head next. It's hard for you to picture where you want to see yourself in the future. Maybe you are in a place in life, feeling stale and routine, and you want something different, but don't know where to start. Or maybe you can't see how to navigate your current situation to get yourself to your future you dream about.

I offer individual, family/couples/ group counseling for anxiety, depression, PTSD, anger/stress management, relationships, chronic illness/pain, parenting, life transitions/stress.
At some point in our lives we might feel overwhelmed, stuck, as if the life has placed a roadblock on our way. Other times we created our own roadblocks. We are always busy, always running, often take care of others, do what others want us to do, and neglect our own fundamental needs of happiness, belonging, fulfillment, and joy. It is so important to stop for a moment and to create your own safe space for internal search and reflection that would lead to finding YOUR OWN answers and solutions. As a therapist, I offer such space for you.

Couples Counseling Therapists
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
