Things at home are more stressful than ever—trying to find balance in the midst of endless demands is overwhelming. You are doing your best, but the whole house feels on edge, especially you and your partner. Certain pre-existing relational dynamics are now magnified and there’s a storm brewing inside of you. You're feeling angry, resentful and unsupported. You know you play a part in this dance, you’re ready to roll up your sleeves to right this ship, but can’t do it alone anymore. There's a part of you that knows you could be better and another part that is so lost. You need some clarity and guidance.

Are you and your partner struggling with communication in such a way that it is leaving you feeling so frustrated you don't know what to do? Maybe you are considering marital counseling to address infidelity and you are not sure how you will be able to trust your partner again. Perhaps you wish to rediscover intimacy in your relationship after feeling lonely in your relationship. Or maybe you need support with life transitions, fertility issues, illness or are looking to do premarital counseling. If you are looking to reconnect with your partner and find a way to end the cycle of conflict, you have come to the right place.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) as well as a Certified Sex Therapist (CST) through AASECT with a bachelor’s degree from Indiana University and a master’s degree from Antioch University. I am passionate about working with couples and individuals who are experiencing a range of challenges including relational distress, infidelity, a lack of intimacy, depression, desire discrepancy and more.

I work with individuals and couples. I am very passionate about what I do. It is my vocation to help people live peaceful and satisfying lives. There is no need for anyone to settle for less!

I offer a warm, caring and supportive environment. My goal is to help clients solve his/her problem, not engage in lifetime therapy. I work with individuals, couples, and families. My areas of specialty include helping clients of all ages to overcome stress, anxiety, fears and phobias, depression,loss, and improving overall well-being and happiness.

Moments and self-discovery outside of the therapy room.

Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point in their lives. I specialize in supporting patients and their loved ones as they navigate complex illnesses such as chronic Lyme Disease and tick borne illnesses. I am a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor and help patients, couples and families who are impacted by addiction and co-occurring mental health issues. It is important to me that my patients feel they can safely express their emotions and receive supportive feedback in a nonjudgmental manner. I would like to help you develop life-long coping strategies and achieve a better quality of life.

Once again you’re going to bed emotionally drained and unable to quiet the internal dialogue “you didn’t do enough today”, “you’re not enough”. You feel stuck and doubt your value and effort as a mother, a wife, daughter, or sister. You feel disconnected from the woman you once were or the woman you hope to be. Going through the same cycles over and over again. You are an observer of your own life and the weight of the internal struggle and pain is no longer tolerable. You have neglected your needs so severely, you can barely look at your reflection in the mirror without a gutting sense of disappointment, guilt, regret and shame.

It’s not unusual to feel depressed or anxious when life’s challenges seem too difficult to manage. If this is getting in the way of your relationships, your work, or even just your day-to-day life, a therapist can help you get back on track. Together, we’ll figure out what’s interfering with your well-being and how to address it.

You deserve a life that feels good. We know that even good relationships can get stuck in unhealthy patterns. Do you find that when you are trying to connect with your partner you end up in a cycle of communication that's not helpful or productive? Do you retreat and silence it until next time? There is always next time… Maybe this time they will understand…we become louder in hopes they see how hurt we are. The more we aren't seen and heard the more resentful we become. The explosions become more significant and the intimacy ceases, now you are just resentful roommates.—It doesn’t have to be this way.

I utilize a collaborative approach to help my clients work toward identified goals. You are the expert on your own life, and in turn are the most important tool in your own healing process. If you're struggling with addiction, anxiety, depression, grief or if you want to work through your PTSD, please reach out and schedule a session with me. I utilize several treatment modalities, including CBT, Narrative Therapy, and I take a strengths-based approach to treatment.

I believe in the ever-present possibility of growth and the power of the therapeutic relationship to facilitate productive change in regard to what is not working or troublesome in people's lives. As a psychotherapist, I engage in confidential collaborative relationships grounded in respect, empathy, and safety in order to explore and help free people from patterns of functioning that are generally old, now maladaptive and personally limiting. Through achieving a deeper sense of self-understanding and personal growth, I believe in the increased capacity to live more satisfying emotional, social, and professional lives.
