I seek clients who are open to discovering their story and how it led them to their current circumstance. I am best able to nurture a relationship with a client who is aware of their reason for seeking support and is comfortable with a direct perspective to realizing their goals. My approach to working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families is centered on the philosophy that we are experiencing components of our personal story daily. When we conclude a chapter, it can impact the next chapter. By understanding our experiences and crafting our next steps, we can shape our story.

Utilizing depth psychology, psychodynamics, CBT, DBT, and creative modalities, I work to recognize the root of the issues. Drawing on 20+ therapies, I seek to guide people to discover their gifts, understand dreams, and develop integrity-filled, meaningful lives. By gaining vital knowledge of the psyche, clients learn to understand themselves to empower them to reduce symptoms and make inner and outer changes. Additionally, I provide professional consultation and supervision to helping professionals seeking to develop their skills or prepare for licensing. Aiding other clinicians development is a great joy in this part of my career.

Change is difficult and the best way to facilitate it is to approach it with gentleness and compassion. We are in a constant state of having to make decisions and respond with our best ability at every given moment. Many of those decisions may leave us questioning what we did to bring us to the crisis we are feeling today. The crisis may be the reason our relationship with ourselves has become distressed and disconnected.

Reaching out for help can sometimes be the hardest part. Many of us function under the idea we should be able to figure it out on our own. But unfortunately that’s just not always true. We often build walls and create patterns just to survive. That’s the truth of it all, you’re a survivor because you’re here. My goal is to help my clients understand all parts of themselves and uncover what parts may be holding them back; while learning tools to help break these disruptive cycles. There are no bad parts, and you (or your teen) aren’t broken. I’d love to help, feel free to reach out whenever you’re ready.

By the time people call me, I know they have typically tried a number of solutions to the problems they are experiencing. I believe in the individuals and couples I see, and I work with them to help understand and identify the feelings and circumstances that are contributing to their repetitive struggles. We work together to find solutions, identify patterns and overcome the fears and obstacles that are holding them back from the freedom and intimacy in relationships that they are longing to achieve.
