I believe therapy is oriented at finding out something about you with you. Many of the struggles we experience are caused by responding to new life circumstances using past life experiences. During therapy we move with curiosity, exploring perspectives. We experiment giving ourself permission to feel deeper in an effort to bring focus to the present while honoring our past for brining us to this moment. Through this work, clients can challenge this "stuck” feeling and move toward leading fulfilling lives.

Symptoms tell stories and those stories must be heard, understood and thought about. Psychotherapy is committing to a psychic journey where one endeavors at an understanding of themselves through a deep and long term process. I focus on increasing ones sense of inner freedom and reducing stress that manifests in unwanted symptoms, via thoughts, emotions and behaviors.

I am a trauma informed therapist that can help you with your journey of personal growth. I primary work with adults dealing with anxiety, depression, complex relational dynamics and substance use. I often hear from clients I work with that they feel stuck, lonely, not happy in their day to day and that they are wanting to feel differently. My role as a therapist is to help my clients recover their true sense of self by learning to make healthier choices, and to improve the relationship with themselves and their loved ones.

I work with a range of individuals including adults, teens, and children. I have worked with clients with challenges including depression, anxiety, trauma, family conflict, low self-esteem, and gender dysphoria. I am passionate about working with the LGBTQIA+ community, folks with diagnosed or self-identified Autism/ADHD, and those navigating pregnancy/postpartum. Therapy with me is an affirming space for those in the kink and poly communities. I enjoy working with individuals who wish to deepen their understanding of their identity, are undergoing a life transition, or who want to understand how their past informs their present.

Have you been through the spin cycle one too many times in your relationship or marriage? Asking yourself, "How did I get here?" Coming out of divorce or contemplating divorce or separation? Do you think your partner is a narcissist? Or are they avoiding issues that you know are relevant? Do they blame you for everything? Have you or your partner experienced childhood trauma and it is wreaking havoc on your relationship? Maybe you have just had enough and you need to sort out your feelings and get grounded. The fact is that relationships, both past and present, lie at the core of all of our problems. Licensed in Alaska and Illinois

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand yourself and your unique story. Without self-awareness, it's easy to get caught in the same unhelpful patterns that leave you feeling stuck, disconnected, and joyless. These patterns often go unnoticed, preventing you from fully engaging with your life and relationships. Sometimes, what we need most is a compassionate and accepting space to safely share the deepest parts of ourselves, allowing us to see these patterns for what they truly are. This can be a powerful catalyst for change, helping you gain insight into what no longer serves you.

I have professional experience working with individuals in early adolescence through adulthood and in a variety of settings, ranging from wilderness therapy, therapeutic day schools (middle and high schools), community mental health and private practice. Working with adolescents and young adults as they navigate a time of life with many new transitions, life events, and a period of discovery is what I am passionate about. I work to help clients separate their sense of themselves from negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, in addition to teaching them positive coping strategies to promote change.

Therapy is a place that balances acceptance and change. Maybe you have noticed an imbalance in your life and are struggling to either find out or work towards what matters most to you. I want to be your collaborator as we work towards what you care about by integrating mindfulness, curiosity about the body, looking at past patterns, and understanding how larger societal systems impact you. My goal is to help you live a life you feel connected to and are proud of. The success of our work together is dependent upon the establishment of a solid relationship between us and collaboration.

Finding a therapist can feel overwhelming. You probably sense that it’s finally time to reach out for help, but feel unsure of where to begin. Perhaps you feel uncertain if there is anyone out there who can understand, let alone help. I believe that the strength of the therapeutic relationship directly impacts an individual’s capacity for change. So my first priority is to cultivate a safe, open, and compassionate relationship with each of my clients. My style of therapy is supportive, lively, and direct. My goal is to help you learn to trust yourself and feel less weighed down by self doubt.

At Health in Tandem, our motto is "where mind and body meet." We passionately believe that we cannot manage mental health without incorporating physical wellness, and that in order to improve physical performance, we must incorporate mental skills training. You are not a one-size-fits-all, so the approach our therapists take with you shouldn't be either. We take a step back and look at your life as a whole - what are all of the components that make you, you? What are the factors in your life that have been out of whack, maybe for awhile? How can we treat the whole of who you are, rather than the symptoms you list off?
