Life can be overwhelming, and it’s okay to seek support. I have over 25 years of experience helping clients improve their mental health through therapy. I work with clients who want to feel better. Many clients have stated that "I have it all but I am still not happy". We will look for the source of unhappiness and work to change your thoughts, feelings, and reactions. My clients describe me as easy to talk to, warm and humorous. I often give "homework" assignments to my clients to reinforce our discussion from sessions. I aim to have my client feel better and take away skills that will last a lifetime,

Ready to give therapy a try? I know that seeking help can be a difficult decision, and there is no greater importance than finding the right fit for you and your needs. Together, we will work towards navigating relationship difficulties, life transitions, complex traumas, mood dysregulation, substance misuse, and overall improving your daily functioning. You can expect to be met by unwavering support and tailored interventions to address your goals. My practice is centered around a non-judgmental perspective, and I often use a healthy dose of humor in our sessions to lighten the mood and make therapy a more enjoyable experience.

With over 20 years experience, I provide a structured setting where people can explore the reasons for unhealthy patterns in their lives. I provide a supportive, interactive, solution focused, client centered, and confidential environment. Various treatment techniques are utilized and tailored to the specific needs of the client in order for healing, change, and growth to occur. I have worked with a diverse population of individuals exhibiting a wide range of conflicts, that include relationship and parenting issues, work stress, depression, anxiety and trauma.

I am a therapist with over 25 years of clinical experience. My approach is collaborative as therapy is a unique relationship. We begin with identifying where you are now while focusing on where you want to be. I use many different techniques in discovering the most effective path for you. For example, cognitive-behavioral therapy is very effective with issues such as anxiety and depression, while using an attachment-based lens can improve low self-esteem and relationship issues. If you are looking for an interactive therapist and are ready and willing to do the work, I will help you along your journey!

Are there things happening in your life making it difficult for you to do what is meaningful? Are you struggling with negative emotions that make you feel like you can’t move forward or achieve what is important to you? Do you feel like you’ve lost your direction? We could work together to help you get it back. Occupational therapy focuses on the person as a whole to facilitate your participation in the meaningful activities of your life that hold value for you - your occupations. Whatever the roadblocks that you're facing may be, we can develop strategies for you to move beyond them.

As a Licensed Professional and Creative Arts Therapist, I offer various modalities utilizing a somatic approach. These include art, guided imagery, bilateral drawing techniques for trauma with polyvagal theory and parts relationships. Restoring the body, mind, and spirit can aid in increasing one's self-esteem, resolving conflicts, healing grief and loss, and addressing underlying layers causing stress, illness, and psychological ailments. I'm passionate about supporting clients through life's challenges with intuitiveness and insight.

I believe we all go through challenging periods and difficult experiences in our lives when we can feel overwhelmed, scared, angry or isolated. During these times it can be particularly difficult to reach out and ask for help, and it often requires a great amount of courage to share these painful feelings with others. Regardless of what brings you to therapy, it is essential to have a strong and comfortable relationship with your therapist in order to feel safe enough to share your personal experiences. I make it my goal to build a warm and supportive environment where we can explore your specific concerns and circumstances.
