I am in network with BCBS, Medicaid, and other private insurances.
I believe that everyone is unique and deserves a therapeutic approach that will meet their needs. I have worked hard in creating a personalized approach to therapy which allows each person to be the center of focus and go through their journey at their own pace. A dedicated playroom allows children to explore and process at their own level through play and creativity. With teenagers my focus is on their skills and strengths while building them up to help them meet their goals and overcome obstacles. With adult clients I provide a safe place where they can process openly without fear or judgement.

Have you ever woken up and felt like getting out of bed was like trying to climb Mount Everest, but no one understood? Ever just thought about work and felt fear clawing at your chest and throat? Have you been told you were not “trying hard enough” or were just “unmotivated” or “lazy” when behind the scenes you try so hard it overwhelmed you? I have, and you are not alone. Now imagine waking up, jumping out of bed, feeling refreshed. Imagine knowing that despite the challenges you face you can succeed and it “fills you with determination”. Imagine that, even on the worse days, you know “this too shall pass”.

Asking for help isn’t giving up. It’s refusing to give up - Charlie Mackesy. However, when things don't improve and life becomes overwhelming, getting help might be necessary. Sometimes people are reluctant to start therapy because they see it as a sign of weakness. It can be difficult to open up and be vulnerable to someone new. I understand this reluctance and I'm here to make this process as easy and as helpful as possible. I will listen to your problems, give you encouragement and teach you the skills you need to improve your life.

I specialize in guiding clients who feel trapped in exhausting, repetitive cycles. They come to me when the same arguments, the same misunderstandings, and the same silences have created a frustrating distance, from others, or even their own sense of self. Their issues are often rooted in invisible patterns. If this resonates, I want you to know that change is possible. My approach is collaborative and practical. Together, we identify these patterns, understand their roots, and develop new tools for communication and connection. Our work will focus on empowering you to step out of these cycles and build the relationships you desire.

You may have spent so long trying to meet everyone else's expectations that it's hard to tell what you actually need. Anxiety, depression, or people-pleasing can take over, especially when boundaries feel impossible or relationships feel one-sided. Some shut down, others over-function. In couples, the same fight plays out again and again. Whether it started in your family, your inner critic or a past relationship, these patterns are painful- and they are exhausting to keep repeating.
