As a depth psychotherapist, my goal is to help you uncover your highest potential for living a life worth celebrating.

Given the right tools, knowledge, and guidance, your life and relationships can experience growth and transformation!. We also offer services nationally via video and teleconference counseling.

As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, I believe just as much therapeutic work should be done outside of therapy as within counseling sessions. Being fully invested in the therapeutic process is key to positive outcomes. Clients are expected to be fully present during therapy sessions and open to experimenting with a variety of techniques to assist with identifying how thoughts, feelings, and situations contribute to maladaptive behaviors.

Therapy can be scary and intimidating! I am here to help you navigate those feelings and assist you on your healing journey. My primary focus as a clinician is to build a strong therapeutic relationship together, so we can tailor our sessions to your needs. Together, we will work to build a safe space where you can be yourself and not feel judged by your actions or for who you are.

Whatever your life circumstance, therapy can help you face challenges, set goals, and work through personal and professional issues.

We will work together in an open and accepting environment, where I offer you a calm and nurturing space to process old coping methods that no longer serve you. A place where you can begin to heal and create a more authentic life.

Individuals who come to therapy demonstrate courage as they seek positive change in their lives. In an effort to honor the courage it takes to heal and move through any obstacle, I believe it is essential to create a therapeutic environment that is collaborative and accepting. My clients tell me that as a result, they feel safe, supported and understood. For those who struggle with relationships, intimacy, trust, confidence issues, depression or anxiety-- this welcoming environment enhances therapy because individuals know that they are not alone. Working as a team encourages hope, self-trust and acceptance of one's strengths.

Coming to therapy takes courage, strength, and commitment. Are you someone who feels that they need therapy or an unbiased support person who can help assist with navigating life changes, emotions, losses, and insecurities? Is your ultimate goal in life to be happy and healthy within yourself and within your interpersonal relationships? Do you struggle with obsessive worry, sadness and low motivation? If you answered yes to either question, therapy may be a great benefit to you. It is okay to experience these emotions because we often experience them. However, if most days they become debilitating, therapy is right for you.

My goal is to help my clients achieve optimal functioning by assisting them on their path to wellness. Therapy with me is is based on open, honest communication through meeting my client where they are in their journey and working together to achieve their goals.
