You spend a substantial amount of time pretending to have it all figured out, but inside you struggle with feeling flawed, unusual, or broken, and you imagine that no one around you can really understand what this feels like. It might look like despising the body that you exist in and feeling like your only option is to change it. It might look like feeling like your insecurities are crushing you, and impacting how you interact with others. It might look like struggling after hearing your partner had an affair, not knowing how you will emotionally recover. You want a therapist who can hold your hand and remind you of your own light.

Have you been feeling stuck? You probably have been holding onto pain for long periods at a time, which means...you are probably easily irritable or overwhelmed. When our body's store emotions, this creates imbalances that may lead to psychological, behavioral, emotional problems or unresolved trauma reactions. I want to help you navigate an understanding about your mind and body connection in order to identify the root cause of your physical, mental and emotional pain at the most comfortable pace.The longer we carry unresolved issues and repressed feelings, the longer we are out of balance or will experience uncomfortable symptoms.

My goal is to improve the mental health of those who experience depression, anxiety, have a history of trauma, those that are having a difficult time coping with life’s challenges, and are motivated to make some changes in their lives.

People come to therapy at different times, for different reasons, and with different needs. Perhaps you need a space to process current or past events in your life, or maybe you know there is a difficult change you need to make. Maybe both, or maybe you're not sure. My approach to therapy is to provide the specific balance you need between support and challenge. As we develop the therapeutic relationship, it is my hope that you will feel safe and supported to do the kind of work that is most beneficial to you at this time.
