Stuck. Trapped. Controlling. Anxious. Over it. Apathetic. Do you find yourself resonating with these words? Maybe you feel yourself enraged at little things your partner or kids do, and then hating yourself after you snap. Perhaps you used to get excited about a weekend brunch, meeting a friend for a coffee, or strolling Target alone - but now you only feel apathetic and empty. What if you could find your spark again? Does that sound possible? Maybe going back to where you used to be isn’t even your goal: maybe your goal is the ability to be present, without nagging anxieties and crippling depression. Either way, therapy can help.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MA, LSCSW, LCSW
I believe that everyone, young and old, has a right to feel good about themselves. Sometimes, things happen in life that leave us feeling unprepared for the road ahead. We look in the mirror and are unhappy with what we see, past trauma can leave us vulnerable to the environment around us, or our bodies and our brains do not create a cohesive whole. That is when we need help in discovering who we are and how we want to live our lives.

Are you ready for a change and need supportive accountability? If an unwanted or unexpected personal or professional transition, prolonged stress, or unmanaged ADHD has led you to feel stuck, unsure, or unsteady, we can collaborate to find a path to improve your life satisfaction and decrease wasted time and energy. Pushing through exhaustion, cynicism, self-doubt, or inefficiency alone isn’t necessary. It may be time to focus on yourself in a therapeutic environment with time to pause and redirect your energy to goals anchored by your purpose, values, and strengths.

Life is messy, unpredictable, and challenging. At times, the struggles of today are complicated by the worries of the future or hardships of the past. Other times, we feel like our own inner-critic prevents growth and progress. I can help you break the chains which hold you back from enjoying the beauty in your life and finding inner peace. I truly believe we all have the capacity to change, heal, and grow. I feel passionately about helping individuals become the best versions of themselves. Change is hard and it's also possible!

Respect, trust, and collaboration to find solutions that really work. I believe the best treatment is a collaborative effort between you and your therapist. Sometimes people develop patterns of relating to others that are not conducive to experiencing happiness in their day to day life. As I get information about your specific struggles, we'll develop a plan together to address changes in behaviors to successfully negotiate the changes you want to make.

"I work with each client to develop a treatment approach that meets their goals and individual requirements. I believe that people are more than a diagnosis or static label and my work places an emphasis on the person with a challenge rather than simply focus on the challenge alone. The therapeutic process is more than helping a person to develop positive thinking or an optimistic attitude, but involves helping the person gain an understanding of how they can approach the world to obtain the greatest satisfaction from their relationships, their work and their life in general."

If you have been feeling stuck in your therapy journey, you might be looking for a drama therapist. No, I'm not putting you in a show! I am simply giving you an embodied experience during your session. Research shows that we get better results when we involve the body, the brain, and the soul, which drama therapy can do perfectly. A typical session might include a ritual opening, guided imagery to make the space feel comfortable, and then the main event, of deciding which challenge to engage with creatively. We might draw, write, shout, or dance. You are the protagonist of your own story, I am here to help you navigate the terrain.
