You are looking for empathy and compassion, when going through struggles. It feels so frustrating when you can't find the right support. The support you deserve! You desire a therapist that you can trust and you feel connected to. This is what I strive for in our sessions. I want to create a comfortable atmosphere, where you are able to share whatever is most important to you presently. I place importance on the guidance you provide me, in regard to what you feel is the current presenting problem and how you would like to approach that. I ensure that our sessions are not only a safe place but a judgment-free zone, as well.

I enjoy working with people to make difficult times in life, such as family or relationship conflicts, more manageable and less stressful. I understand how isolating the anxiety of these situations can be. It's like no one truly understands how you feel at times and the advice you get from others isn't always helpful. I begin my work with you by taking a complete inventory of your life and circumstances, focusing on anything that might interfere with your path to good mental health. From there, I work to help you define your values and prioritize your mental health and emotional needs, while moving forward to more peaceful times.

Our sessions are a safe place to unleash your anxiety, stress, or depression. I connect with my clients easily and take an active role in moving you forward in life-changing ways. Talking with an experienced, caring, and non-judgmental listener helps my clients heal, change and make a difference in their lives. Individuals and couples uncover strategies to recognize and change self-defeating thoughts and behaviors that result in negative outcomes in themselves and their relationships.
