I work with people struggling with balance, feeling a sense of meaning and fulfillment. Whatever their particular struggle, from interpersonal issues, trauma, changes in life, struggle with identity, emotive control and expression, and self-sabotage-to more extreme expressions of those issues resulting in self harm or suicidal thoughts, my goal is to help every person that I come in contact with build a life worth living. This is accomplished through targeted interventions tailored to that person, their concerns, personality and strengths.

Navigating teen years can be challenging, both for teens and parents! Naturally, adolescence is a time of transition with changes in thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. These transitions bring symptoms of anxiety, depression, and unhealthy coping. I help teens to gain insight and provide a new perspective. My goal is for them to learn how to be more self-aware, manage stress, cope with changes, have healthy relationships, build a positive image, and handle difficult situations.

If you’re struggling with problematic sexual behavior, pornography use, infidelity, emotional affairs, or toxic relationship patterns, you may feel stuck in cycles of shame, secrecy, and emotional exhaustion. Many clients long for clarity, emotional safety, healthy intimacy, and stable connection but feel trapped by behaviors or relationships they can’t seem to change. You may be seeking freedom from depression, anxiety, isolation, broken trust, and repeated heartbreak, while wanting healthier sexuality, deeper emotional connection, and lasting relational change.

Sometimes all you need is a compassionate and skilled listener to provide direction for your unique story. I work with clients challenged by life stage changes, parenting, grief, identity issues, addiction, anxiety, and OCD. I bring to our sessions an experienced clinically-trained eye that provides a safe, grounded space where your story can be met with compassion and understanding. As you grow your self-confidence and emotional awareness (you may even become a friend to your emotions rather than running from them!) having the courage to set healthy boundaries that used to feel unimaginable can become your reality.

As a therapist, I specialize in supporting individuals through the emotional complexities of new parenthood — including postpartum depression and anxiety, the transition into fatherhood and motherhood, and the unique challenges that can come with a NICU experience. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts, struggling with anxiety or OCD symptoms, or turning to alcohol to cope, you're not alone — and you don’t have to navigate this season by yourself.

“Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we’re supposed to be and embracing who we are." Sometimes we lose ourselves along the way for whatever reason, be it trauma, loss, depression, anxiety or any number of human experiences. And guess what? It’s okay! You are not alone! When we are disconnected with ourselves, our thoughts lead us to believe we are not good enough or worthy of connection. But you are. It is so brave to want to grow, heal, and rediscover yourself. True healing comes from connection with others and authenticity to the self. I am here to meet you where you are!

Substance Use Therapists
How do substance and drug recovery or rehabilitation programs work?
In inpatient programs, individuals live in a facility with other clients in recovery; in outpatient programs, individuals reside at home. These facilities are staffed with healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses, psychologists, counselors, and psychotherapists. Staff often also includes people who have recovered themselves, serving as mentors and guides. These programs may use abstinence, harm reduction, detoxification, psychotherapy, and other methods.

How do 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?
Members of 12-step programs help each other reach abstinence and work to maintain it. These programs promote complete change in the individual’s emotional, mental, physical, and even spiritual perspectives. Some programs require that new members attend 90 meetings in 90 days. Many people do attend these programs in conjunction with their work in psychotherapy; the combination of therapy along with 12-step can be extremely effective.

How does harm reduction combined with psychotherapy work?
According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, harm reduction prevents death, injury, disease, overdose, and substance misuse. People who choose harm reduction for substance use reduce the amount of drugs they consume. It is not abstinence-based like a 12-step program, but combining harm reduction with psychotherapy proves to be effective for many people.

Are there specific medications for substance and drug use?
There are medications approved to treat substance use disorder—such as buprenorphine, methadone, naltrexone, and acamprosate. These medications do help people cope with substance use as well as avoid the problem of relapse. Naltrexone can help reduce cravings, methadone is an opioid medication used to treat severe pain, and acamprosate may help ease symptoms like poor sleep and anxious feelings.
