Have you been seeking greater calm, clarity, and centeredness? Are you carrying deep traumas or stresses that continually hinder you from living life to the fullest? If so, I want to assure you that you are not alone. Seeking help takes courage, and I want you to feel at ease throughout the process. Whether you are dealing with trauma, PTSD, C-PTSD, panic, anxiety, grief, depression, or relational issues, my approach is individualized, inclusive, and strengths-based. Every step of the way, I want you to feel deeply seen, heard, and empowered.

Life is complicated and we are all products of our upbringing, life experiences, and personal coping mechanisms. We are aware of some of these mechanisms and others, we are not. Whether it is a temporary set-back or a chronic condition, helping to uncover what lays beyond our consciousness and how that affects our thoughts, feelings, and behavior is a process that will lead to greater well-being, increased self-awareness, and fulfilling personal potential. I will work to understand your worldview, current constraints, existing resources and strengths, and apply an integrative theoretical approach.

I am a generalist, and my practice includes adolescents, adults, couples, and families. Clients approach me for a wide range of issues and concerns, which can include interpersonal or relationship problems, family conflict, grief, transitions, depression, anxiety, and the recovery from trauma or abuse. I also see individuals who simply want to live happier or more fulfilling lives. My therapeutic orientation is flexible and integrative. Most often, I utilize emotion-focused, relational, experiential, and somatic techniques. However, I ultimately strive to work in a way that optimally matches my clients' unique needs.

What if you could make your life the way you want it to be? Would you like to overcome loneliness, self-doubt, anxiety, fear of failure, hopelessness, relationship difficulties? Many times our discontent in the present is tethered to traumatic events in our past. If you suffered trauma as a child or as an adult, chances are you have adapted and survived but you may not be currently thriving. The deeper the wounding, the more profound the negative impacts can be in your present life. The miracle of therapy offers you the power to rewrite your past and reprogram your future.

Navigating the messy, painful, hopeful, and confusing parts of our life is so hard to do on our own. We may feel lost, alone, or like we will never have the kind of life we want to have. What seems to come easily for others may feel crushingly hard for us to get for ourselves. Therapy offers us the space to be witnessed in our pain and struggle while also digger deeper into the honest truths and hopes of our life. I deeply believe that we heal in community, and therapy is the perfect place to begin to allow ourself to be seen, heard, and understood in a totally safe and consistent environment.

The last few years has brought on a large amount of change. Change that may have caused you to feel isolated, anxious or even scared. The loss of control has left many of us yearning to hug friends and/or family for comfort. My hope is to establish a safe, judgment free environment for you to explore the grief and anxiety you may feel. It is in these contexts that we can begin to discover new levels of honesty, awareness, and hopefully self-compassion and a greater sense of alignment with our new realities. I take the role of active listener, reflecting back to you patterns or themes that I notice in the stories or experiences you

I work with career professionals, adults, couples and teenagers who are experiencing difficulty in the office, at home or at school.

Are you a woman who feels overwhelmed, panicky or anxious? We all crave lives that feel safe, balanced and purposeful. There are times, however, when we reach a crossroads. Maybe you are facing a personal or family crisis, a shift in identity, or a significant loss. Maybe you are wondering if "this" is all there is. You want to feel better, but you are not sure where to start. I became a yoga teacher and psychotherapist because I have been there. I sought growth and transformation from a holistic perspective; one that addressed my mind, body and spirit.

Are you experiencing depression, anxiety, fears, anger, relationship, or family problems? Has balancing personal life and work become too much? These are all examples of our response to stress. Some people are dealing with everyday stressors and others bring traumatic experiences into the mix. When trauma collides with stress, life becomes challenging. Addressing these issues is both rewarding and scary. With compassion/humor I work with each person at their starting point and on the issues they bring. I see myself as the Sherpa who holds the lights and other tools to help make the path safe for you.

I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, self esteem, SUD, and struggles related to life transitions. I help clients find the solid ground they need to support forward movement and a more positive trajectory. I begin by working with clients in developing a deeper understanding of themselves to arm them with the knowledge necessary to address their problems and make changes necessary to develop more adaptive coping strategies and improve the quality of their lives. I am non-judgmental and work to create a space in which clients can freely explore, uncover, and accept themselves more fully to live fuller, more meaningful lives.
