I am passionate about supporting people with anxiety, trauma, teaching coping skills for life transitions, and navigating challenging relationships. I am also comfortable with spiritual topics. I cultivate a non judgmental, shame free environment, and want every person to feel accepted in my space, because change happens when people are free to be as open as possible. I model this behavior in my own life, striving to live life authentically. I recognize that it takes trust and a strong personal connection in order to do this in therapy, and I work hard to help my clients feel safe and open.

Are you longing to live into the version of yourself you know you can be but feel totally lost in how to get there? Feeling pretty deflated by the weirdness of life and need some support in getting through it? A lot of us live with negative narratives that keep us trapped and living way below our potential. We can get stuck in faulty scripts that are reinforced by others, our experiences, and our beliefs about ourselves in the world. But what if you could change the script and live a more purposeful life? What if you could tell a new, updated story of who you are and what you're capable of? It's totally possible.

I love to work with people who are committed to staying engaged in their lives. There can be many roadblocks, both internal and external, that get in the way of full engagement, and I believe that therapy can help when we are in that stuck place. I have a particular interest in issues related to relationship difficulties, traumatic experiences, stress management, and identity development. Additionally, I believe that relational health is inseparable from individual mental health and I love to work with couples or individuals about relationship issues.

Many folks seek therapy due to a disconnection from themselves, others, or community. Sometimes this disconnection shows up as distracting worries, relationship strain, or mood troubles. For others, they carry distinct dissatisfaction and stuckness. If any of this is resonating with you, I am so glad you are considering therapy.

One side of this work may involve pursuing wisdom, guidance and support. The other, involves pursuing healing into our deepest self. Some concepts to explore are... How do you make sense of and think about your world and self? How do you experience and manage your emotional world, what are your survival styles and patterns in relationships, distress and behavior? In what ways do you carry emotional pain and trauma on a body level, impacting you in known and unknown ways? I'm trained as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner to work with the release and resolution of trauma that can be trapped in one's physiology and nervous system.

I look forward to working with clients who are feeling stuck, have a sense of stagnation in their lives, have been unable to make change, or adjust to transitions. This could be in the context of relationships, family, career, or inner life. Therapy is a place where together we can explore a client's personal values, uncover barriers to growth, identify patterns of thought and behavior that the client was previously unaware of, and improve quality of life. In therapy, we will work towards increased knowledge of self, personal growth, resiliency, identity, courage, and self-determination.

How does existential therapy work?
Existential therapy focuses on a patient’s inner experiences. The therapist tries to help the individual comprehend and alleviate symptoms by exploring their interior life. By confronting negative disquiet and emotions, the individual will hopefully become more open to finding meaning and purpose. This therapy can be administered to individuals or groups.
Is existential therapy evidence-based?
Existential therapy is an evidence-based practice. Research has determined that existential therapy can lead to significant improvement in the mental health of patients, and for some people it can be just as effective as cognitive behavioral therapy. The benefits of existential therapy are enduring, even long after treatment has ended.
How long does existential therapy last?
The goal of existential therapy is to understand a person’s internal experiences, which may sound like a lengthy process, but it does not have to be so in-depth. However, sessions are not short-term, and therapy can continue for months or up to a year. And because patients learn the theory behind existential therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have been completed.
Is existential therapy effective?
According to research, many patients find success with existential therapy. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving feelings of isolation, feelings of purposelessness, as well as conditions such as anxiety and depression. Improvements in problem areas can persist even after the end of existential therapy, as individuals can continue working on themselves by using the tools they’ve developed during treatment.
