Is your gifted, creative, or high-performing child struggling with anxiety, stress or confidence issues? Our younger kids can struggle with behavioral issues because they are overstimulated, bored, or just misunderstood in school. Our older teens may be overwhelmed and even have thoughts about self-harm. Our kids have unique stressors related to perfectionism, sensitivity, high pressure, and social relationships. Sometimes these things can make it challenging for them to feel like they belong. Counseling can provide a safe space for our kids and teens to develop emotional regulation, increase their confidence and find happiness.

Whether you are facing issues in school, at work, at home, with family, friends, or internally, I'm here during this time.

You’re used to having it all together. You’re usually the “strong friend”. Showing up for others has become a part of your identity. What they don’t know is sometimes you want someone to hear you when you speak, to find a shoulder to lean on. Sometimes it’s lonely and it can be scary to admit that you go through things too. So much of our lives are shaped by our roles: daughter, sister, student, career woman, friend, girlfriend, wife, mother that we sometimes forget who we are individually. There’s so much pressure

I am a non-judgmental therapist who will listen with compassion and care. I'll use my 20 years of eclectic experience (DBT/CBT/EMDR/Psychodrama/Hypnosis, etc.) to help you work life's challenges and find your inner peace.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who specializes in working with teens, young adults and women. I believe that the most important part of therapy is empowerment of the individual. I can help by allowing a client to see that they have choices in almost all aspects of their lives. My goal is for a client to leave the room feeling like they can handle anything life throws at them. An empowered person is more likely to be successful in all aspects of their life, and I would love to help you along that journey in getting to where you want to be.

My goal as a therapist is to find solutions that work for you on an individual basis, helping you to discover the true potential of your life. There may be no magic button or quick-fix solution when it comes to changing things from the past that have been difficult. What we can do is work together to find understanding and resolution in the difficult areas of your life and in the challenges you have to face. Through various techniques and approaches that have proven results, we’ll be able to identify the behaviors and thoughts that might be holding you back from living your best life, and finding meaning in your everyday life.

One of the most profound determinants of how we experience our lives is how we feel about ourselves–our sense of worthiness. The story (our narrative) we tell ourselves is reinforced for better, or for worse. The health of our relationship, the one with ourselves, often dictates the health of our relationship with others. We all have the innate capacity to grow and change, to be resilient in the face of challenges, and to be empowered to change patterns of behavior and relationship that no longer serve us.

I provide a safe,supportive and non judgemental environment you can trust to help that helps you begin to reconnect the pieces of your life back together.

Our bodies and brains have natural systems for dealing with difficult and stressful life situations or events. Experiencing or watching a frightening, dangerous, or violent event can overload these these natural systems. Other frequent life experiences such as job or relationship stress, divorce, loss, and accidents can trigger trauma responses as well. Feelings of depression, isolation, anxiousness, tension, irritability, numbness, nightmares, or alcohol/substance abuse are common. Other times, we might just feel stuck and unable to move past the past. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) is a therapy that can help.

Finding your way and your voice is a journey. Each person and each journey is unique. I focus on empowering clients to recognize their worth and build the life they desire. By assisting clients with challenging unhelpful and self defeating beliefs we can create a path for moving forward. Growth and change are possible.

We all like to feel good and the feeling of positive emotions flowing on the inside of us just plain feel good. Feeding our mind with pleasurable emotions is vital for anyone who wants to lead a happy & healthy life. Your diet is not only what you eat it is what you watch, what you listen to, what you read, and the people you surround yourself around be mindful of what you feed your soul, not just your stomach. A good life starts from within. A visit with me is the first step toward the satisfaction & enjoyment you're looking for. Treatment's vary depending on each person. Let's work together.
