Feelings of depression and anxiety can be overwhelming and even quite painful. It is not always possible to "just shake it off". My clients are every day people who find themselves indulging "what if" questions all night when all they really want to do is get a good night of sleep. I have dedicated my career to helping people overcome challenges. I take great caring and respect of individuality to tailor my therapeutic approach for each person's highly individualized needs. Philosopher, Aristotle, once said: "Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom...and inner peace".

Welcome and thank you for reviewing my platform. My focus in providing therapy is to serve as the catalyst breeching the gap for folks to reach their goals and improve their life. Determining goals in therapy is truly a collaborative process. When you begin therapy, we will take time to not only discuss the issues or difficulties you are experiencing, but also discuss the ways in which you would like life to look different. This is asking, what does feeling better look like to you? I often help with the answer to the question as it may be difficult for folks to see forward to what type of change is possible during therapy.

So here's a little about me to see if what I can offer will assist with what you need! Throughout my career, I have worked with adults who were in need of guidance when it came to a variety of concerns such as anxiety, depression, past trauma, and/or adjusting to life changes.

Although challenging, there is hope, and talk therapy has increasingly been shown to aid in a person's journey to health.
