My focus is to help you identify and develop your individual goals in treatment. I will guide you to achieve those goals and find ways to better understand and overcome your barriers. I take a strength based approach to provide a safe space for you to share your concerns. I have experience working with a wide range of emotional and behavioral disorders including: anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, trauma, adjustment disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, and family systems.

Change is possible. It takes courage and alot of effort to take on this process. Emotional health is connected to our physical health. Why waste more time not having better relationships and better functioning overall?. As humans, our emotional system blind us to ways we can have better relationships and better lives overall. Through my years of education, training and self work, I know and appreciate what it takes to live a more fulfilled life. Time is our most valuable gift. Why wait?

My passion is working with clients who struggle with eating concerns and body image issues. I have experience with anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating disorder.

I value being empathetic while challenging my clients to step outside of their comfort zone and unlock their strengths. Taking the first step to get help and support can be intimidating but it can lead to growth and change!

I’ve spent my career working with individuals diagnosed with Autism, ADHD, and other behavioral diagnosis in several settings including home, school, and community.

I like to use an eclectic approach to therapy that includes CBT, System’s theory, Play Therapy, and Solution Focused therapy in order to individualize sessions to each client’s needs. I’m very passionate about providing a welcoming and open approach that allows for both personal and emotional growths.

Awareness in itself is healing. -Fritz Perls. Imagine having the world's most incredible tool for healing, acceptance, and fulfilling experiences at your disposal.

I believe that the core to effective therapy is a strong and trusting relationship between therapist and client. Within this working relationship we can explore deeper issues and learn healthier ways of coping and bringing about positive change. People have within themselves the ability to heal but finding that inner strength is sometimes limited by unhealthy coping skills, stress, trauma and grief. It is important to treat the whole person, not just the addiction. I utilize a Person Centered/Strength Based Approach in helping clients reach their goals.

Through the lens of Bowen Systems Theory I work towards providing insight and awareness into the emotional process that we often find ourselves intensely reacting from. Building on that insight and awareness, decreasing the emotional reactivity while increasing calmer and more rational choices. Looking at our emotional patterns to better understand them allows us then to think in a way that can provide an openness to making different choices. To know better is to do better! To understand why we react to our situations and where those patterns have been learned, we can then start to look at each new moment as it’s own.

Starting therapy is hard, finding a therapist that is the right fit for YOU can feel daunting! Many people seeking therapy just feel stuck, unmotivated and lost. Others seek therapy to learn ways to cope with a specific event or life circumstance. Please know, I am happy to answer questions as you start this journey.

We all struggle in the relationships that are important to us and need help some of the time to develop skills to strengthen these relationships. We lose connection and have difficulty communicating with our partners or spouses; we get stuck in conflict with our children; we lose track of who we are; we dread going to work because it feels hostile or unsafe; we question our faith; we have trouble expressing needs at school; and we neglect our bodies and our health. The relationships we have with ourselves and others are always evolving and we need to change with them.
