Choosing a therapist is very personal decision. It can be about basics such as location and insurances accepted. But it also is about having a supportive therapist that is committed to help you through whatever challenges you face. It can be difficult to make the decision to enter into therapy. I do my best to make it a supportive and comfortable place that is nonjudgmental.

I am a licensed clinical social worker providing individual, couples, family, and group therapy to adult clients. I work to address challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship conflicts, and addiction/recovery. I strive to create a safe environment where clients feel comfortable and can address key issues to bring about healthy transformations.

I applaud this step you are taking of looking into therapy------whatever the issue is that you are facing. Whether you're feeling stuck in a persistent pattern, in a relationships where you are struggling to find connection again, or you are moving through a transition; working with a caring, objective professional can help you find the outcome you desire. I regard client work as a journey toward healing in which the client has invited me to join them. I see my job as helping you achieve your goals by removing obstacles and moving to peace and balance.

I want to be part of your healing story. I believe that two people working together are stronger than one. I believe that most of our suffering comes from the pain around separation and disconnection and that healing and empowerment is best experienced and guided within a relational framework. I believe that the traditional or Western medical model for healing is outdated and limited and so I embrace a holistic or integrative approach to mental health. I believe that healing takes place beyond intellectual processing and that we need to integrate healing into somatic or body based processes and rewriting personal narrative.

***NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME. PLEASE CHECK BACK IN AUGUST*** Making the decision to seek a therapist is the first step in making important changes in your life. I provide a comfortable and a nonjudgemental environment where you can feel at ease about this decision. Although my focus is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I incorporate other modalities based on the needs of the individual. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to treatment. During the initial consultation, we will discuss the best course of action to meet your goals. It is important that all clients are involved in their treatment plan.

My belief is that everyone has the knowledge of how to solve their problems somewhere inside of them. People come to therapy with a wide variety of problems. Some are as simple as "I would like to have better communication with my spouse, partner, children, or friends. Other issues are more far reaching such as "I feel sad all the time." Or "I can't seem to stop drinking."

When my husband and I were having marital issues, we tried three therapists, none of whom helped us very much. In fact, over all, they made things worse. It occurred to me that I might be able to do this better. I wanted a therapist who wouldn’t take sides--someone who would work to understand my point of view as well as my husband’s point of view--someone who would be empathetic and compassionate. I wanted someone who would care about both of us, and, give us hope. These are among the reasons that I became a therapist.

Today you have taken the FIRST STEP on the path of positive growth and well being. At times in our lives each of us has felt overwhelmed because of challenges at home, work or in the community. They may involve intimate relationships, family, coping with divorce, co-parenting, the passing of a loved one, anger, anxiety, depression or substance abuse. I can appreciate how some of these losses and stresses can become overwhelming, and may require professional guidance from a licensed psychotherapist.

Temporarily at full capacity for patients, please check back soon. "I believe that respect, empathy and trust are the foundation for a positive therapeutic relationship that guides a patient to grow and change." I have years of experience working with individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, grief and loss issues, trauma and PTSD, bipolar disorder, co-occurring disorders and stress related to life transitions. Life can be difficult and at times we need support while exploring the deeper meaning behind our emotions. I have specialized in helping patients learn more about themselves and challenge their way of thinking.

I am passionate about supporting others on their journey to wellness. I believe in the uniqueness of an individual's experience and tailor my treatment approach accordingly. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, judgement free space, where individuals will feel empathy and acceptance just as they are. I seek to draw out the strengths I observe, while also providing new tools that will encourage pursuing the life desired. My desire is to help individuals find meaning in the past and hope for the future. I have 12 years of experience working with adults, children and families in a variety of settings.

We’ve all been there. Maybe not to the same degree or about the same issue but we all know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed and want things to change. The struggle however, can be figuring out exactly how to make that happen. Faulty and/or destructive thoughts and beliefs can often impact our ability to be successful in bringing about this change. My expertise lies not just in helping you to identify and take the steps necessary to make this change occur but with compassion, a non-judgmental attitude, a warm sense of humor and a collaborative approach, I help to create the hope that over time, it can.

**NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS for Telehealth Sessions**Strength doesn't come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming the things you once thought you couldn't. Taking the first step to reach out to a therapist is no easy task and I want to help you recognize that you're doing something big by just looking at my profile to consider if we might be a good fit. I work with a variety of clients and don't limit my practice to any specialty as I offer support in a myriad of areas. ​

My specialty is young adults (ages 18-25) and adults (ages 25 and older). My goal with clients is to provide a safe and open space for them to express their needs and formulate goals to overcome their problems. I believe that a relationship based on mutual trust is the most important factor in finding emotional health.

Forming a family can be difficult business and new parents need a lot of support, validation, and education. You may be feeling hopeless, sad, angry, and anxious in a time in which you are "supposed" to be anything but. You may be feeling disconnected from your partner or like a stranger in your own skin.

I am licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in perinatal mental health in both individuals and couples.

Are you struggling with trauma, life transitions, depression or anxiety? Are you ready for a change? Do you understand that the family system and your early experience drive your behavior? As an experienced Licensed Professional Counselor I see behavior as a microcosm of the individuals early experience. If you are someone who is ready to work through and develop a more thorough understanding of how your life is shaped by the many factors that impact your experience I am more than suited to help guide your journey.
