Life can be challenging at times. Whether it’s from patterns of thinking or behaving we’ve carried with us since childhood, or relationship dynamics we’ve forged, or hurdles we’ve encountered in our day-to-day journey, or lingering trauma, sometimes we can feel stuck. We may even lose a sense of our own identity along the way, and that “lost” feeling brings experiences of anxiety, stress, sadness, fear, physical struggles, or more. It can be helpful to find a safe space to explore our thoughts and feelings, and counseling can offer an objective perspective, thought-provoking questions, and help in discovering the way forward.

You dream of living as your best unapologetic authentic self, yet you find yourself washed up day to day being battered by your low self-esteem, anxiety, or depression. Perhaps it is a daily squall of all three. You want an authentic therapist who is the real dill deal. You want someone who is supportive, but who will also call you out on your bullshit. On that note, lets be frank and honest, and acknowledge that change can be exhausting and feel like actual garbanzo beans. But the cost of not changing feels more like a tax that gradually incurs more than you can sustain. You’re scared, but brave enough to ask for help.

People come to therapy for a variety of reasons. Those suffering from addictions, compulsions, anxiety, and relationship problems often seek help when they are acting in ways that they don’t want to act or thinking in ways that don’t support their best interests. Let’s change negative patterns! Whether you are experiencing a crisis or are seeking better life balance and a new perspective, you may wish to work with a specialist. I offer warmth, curiosity and an ability to focus on objectives with clients seeking solutions to some of life’s most challenging issues.

Many people struggle to make the initial contact to start therapy. Whether it’s because they believe their problem is too big to fix, feel overwhelmed, or experience embarrassment about seeking treatment sometimes people avoid the help they deserve. I believe that one of the bravest things you can do is ask for help. My goal is to create a safe & non-judgmental environment that allows me to get to know you and to help you play a larger and more meaningful role in your own life. My style is to provide a collaborative, support oriented, and guided approach to overcoming your problems, while helping you identify your values.

Do you struggle with anxious feelings? Is there a past event that you are challenged to move beyond? Perhaps your stress is money-related: You are a business owner with unhelpful money habits. You have adult children who need to learn financial autonomy. You have a security clearance that has been compromised due to debt. You and your spouse constantly argue about money without resolution. In a safe, nonjudgemental and supportive environment you can understand the reasons behind your behaviors. From here you can build the knowledge, skill and strength to create the outcomes you really want.

I believe that people want to be heard, validated, and listened to. Reaching out for help when feeling stuck or overwhelmed is the first step in beginning a journey of self-healing, growth, and transformation. I work with clients on developing a better understanding of themselves, promote self-care, and assist in making real and lasting change. Having the space to talk through various life issues and challenges leads to a better sense of self-understanding and ultimately results in becoming more fulfilled and happier in life. I practice from a Cognitive-Behavioral approach & integrate Psychodynamic and Mindfulness therapies.
