I specialize in working with couples who are planning to have children, postpartum parents, and families to help promote healing and growth. Having and raising children is one of the hardest and longest-term projects anyone will ever take on. I want to help parents engage in this process with self-awareness, intention, and love to help improve their own well-being, as well as the child or children's. I believe wellness starts in the home and each member of a family unit can help contribute to positive connections through taking time to work on themselves and then care for others.

Welcome! I am a postdoctoral therapist experienced in working with children, adolescents, and adults from a variety of backgrounds, with diverse interests and values.

Are you, your teenager or your family struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, mood dysregulation, risky behaviors or barriers to communication? Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, hopeless and unable to create change? Are you looking for ways to cope, manage or shift how you think, feel and respond to these circumstances? With therapeutic support, you will gain understanding and increased insight, and learn tools to support stabilization, regulation, resiliency, and communication. Through this process, you will develop a stronger sense of self, build healthier relationships, find purpose & create lasting change.

It is my belief that everyone navigates his or her way through their family of origin and early environment by developing strategies and coping techniques, essentially doing the best one can in the circumstances. Later, these ways of handling relationships and stressors can become limiting. Members of couples and families can also develop entrenched ways of relating that become partially based on assumptions. Frustration, anxiety, disappointment and resentment can result. Psychotherapy enables you to understand the evolution of these patterns and develop more choices in how you respond and relate to others.

Trying to make something work by pretending to feel, think or act in ways that go against how you really feel is exhausting to the body, mind and your spirit.
