I am so glad you decided to take time to invest in yourself. Life often takes a toll on us, and we stay so busy it is hard to make time to take care of ourselves. I have worked with people with a variety of symptoms and from different walks of life. The thing a lot of people are missing is connection, and I strive to help create that connection and start moving forward. I work with men and women with the transition to parenthood and with couples in strengthening their marital friendship. I have experience work with trauma and have extensive training in this as well as being certified in EMDR.

Each person's journey in life is different and has its own unique challenges. These challenges can serve as opportunities for personal growth and positive change.

My focus is helping those suffering from alcohol use disorder to achieve sobriety, repair broken relationships, restore families and heal their minds, bodies and souls.

Additionally, I address and treat the trauma, anxiety, and depression that commonly occurs with these disorders.

Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder can be overwhelming. There is substantial overlap with anxiety, depression, and difficulty adjusting to an ever-changing life. Many individuals are also challenged with behavioral and sensory issues that are difficult to manage, often resulting in conflicts with family members, coworkers, and classmates. These challenges can quickly grow into a life that feels unmanageable and unhappy. When life gets hard, a little help goes a long way. The chaos and stress can impact all areas of life. But it doesn't have to. You don't have to go it alone.

Do you want more from your relationships, career, or life? Are you ready to grow? Have you been struggling to keep going? If you are ready to take control of your growth but aren't sure where to start, you may benefit from reaching out to a counselor. I work with issues specific to women including relationships, family, career, parenting, and trauma. Having a therapist is like having a personal support who is focused on your needs, and will give you honest feedback to build the skills you need to be more effective and confident.

Life is hard; just naturally, on its own. And the way we do life doesn't always make it any easier! It is my belief that the one thing that allows us to cope with this life is connection, both with ourselves and others. As a therapist, that is my underlying goal with every one of my clients, to help them connect in a deeper, more powerful way with themselves and others. I work with clients of all ages (5 years and up!) and my diverse educational experience allows me a unique perspective in working with individuals from all backgrounds and cultural groups.

Along with my registered emotional support dog, I strive to make therapy a healing place you want to be.

Do you find yourself overthinking, having self defeating thought, strive for perfectionistic standards? Feeling depressed or experiencing mood swings? Many individuals have found themselves staring at the ceiling in the middle of the night replaying conversations or staying up late on an email to make sure there are zero errors. Let’s work together to change a fixed mindset towards a growth mindset. If you are looking for a therapist who will crack a joke, instill hope, celebrate your successes, and hold space for the heavy stuff...you are in the right place.

I value the counseling relationship and have a desire to practice with a client-centered, strengths based approach. I have a great deal of experience working with families, and specifically with children and adolescent clients. Life experiences also drive my clinical passions, including working with those struggling with difficult emotions and complicated family situations and relationships. My experience also includes working with pre-teens and teens struggling with emotional dysregulation and difficulty with communicating their thoughts and feelings effectively.

I am CURRENTLY accepting new patients. I am currently only offering Telehealth (video chat and phone calls).

My goal is to be a support in my client’s life and walk alongside them in their therapeutic journey.

Life is a journey. However, our journeys often include interruptions as a result of experiences such as depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, issues resulting from trauma, loss, divorce, relationship issues, parenting issues, and issues with aging, to name a few. These experiences can negatively impact our thoughts, feelings, and behavior and our overall quality of life. It is important to know that your life does not have to remain negatively impacted by what has happened to you.

My clients are often struggling with excessive stress, or anxiety and depression, and can be triggered by past traumas. Many are experiencing oppression, discrimination, prejudice, or stigma. They want a better quality of life, for themselves and for their children or loved ones. My clients are often looking for inner peace and happiness to fully enjoy themselves and to enjoy interacting with others in situations or environments, such as work, school and home. It’s finding resilience, for example through newly learned skills and insights, or a spiritual journey of meditation/prayer, as examples, that allow a better quality of life.
