"I'm so overwhelmed." "I'm afraid this is the best my life will ever be." "Having fun takes too much energy." "No one cares about me." "I mess everything up." "Is life really supposed to feel this hard?" Are you struggling with negative self-talk such as above? Are you experiencing overwhelming stress that is taking over your life? Have you been through difficult or even traumatic experiences that are causing you to feel stuck or hopeless? Your past doesn't have to define your future. It is possible to experience a life that is fulfilling and positive.

My areas of interest include individual, couples, and family therapy dealing with challenges such as stress, depression, anxiety, trauma, personal development, relationships, communication, conflict resolution, and parenting.

I aim to provide a safe space in which to process those stressors and learn to manage them in a healthy way.

I provide a warm, nurturing, collaborative environment to foster healthy emotional functioning and growth. My goal is to assist you in creating a healthier sense of self. Through my experience, I have come to learn that counseling is most beneficial when possibilities of hope, healing, and action are developed through meaningful conversations. My focus is on helping clients manage their distressful symptoms, identify learned patterns and unhelpful ways of thinking, rewire their brains, reprocess trauma, and access their strengths to use as leverage to work through their upsetting events, fears, anxiety, and blindspots.
