The heart is wired for happiness while the brain is wired for protection. Sometimes these logical and emotional centers are at odds and our life can feel off kilter. I move my clients to a place where these systems feel synchronized, making decisions and living life from a place of love and not fear. Where both can come together to live harmoniously.

I work with clients in a therapeutic and coaching space to navigate life’s challenges and to help ease the anxiety that we all experience at times.

It is my belief that each individual has a unique path that leads to healing, self-discovery and growth. As human beings, our life experiences, relationships and beliefs are varied, and as a therapist I honor these differences. I believe in the power of therapy as a means to heal through pain, but also in exploring greater meaning in one's life and relationships. I believe we can all benefit from therapy and gain valuable perspective about who we are and how we became that way. We can’t run away from the tough stuff.. Pain and suffering are a part of our human condition and can also be a huge opportunity for growth.

Anxiety, depression, and/or low self-esteem are hurting your life. You don’t want to be around friends or family anymore. You’ve isolated or haven’t felt up to doing much.

You don’t feel quite like yourself and you’re feeling lost. You ask yourself, “Is this ever going to end? Will I ever get better?” You may feel helpless, but you’re not alone. I’ve been in your shoes before. I know that the pain you feel is *real*.
