There are many reasons to speak with a psychologist. Do you feel very stressed out? Do you feel like you are losing control, or falling apart? Are you very hard on yourself? Do you get carried away with anger? Do you lack meaning or direction in your life? Do you avoid doing more and more out of fear? Loneliness, worthlessness, dread, helplessness, grief, self-doubt, and hopelessness: These are some of the difficult internal experiences that people may suffer and struggle against. They may overwhelm and negatively impact all parts of life, including relationships with family, friends, or employers, and undermine personal goals.

You’re good at so many things, but you struggle in relationships, with confidence in who you are, or managing grief. Therapy will help you tap into your natural ability for deep connection, inner strength, and healing. Perhaps in Relationships- you struggle with communication, boundaries, or you keep getting stuck in the same patterns? In Identity- you know your worth, but have trouble with your self-esteem? In Grief- you get overwhelmed, and don’t know where to start to feel better? You're ready to master relationships, heal, and be unapologetically yourself.

I am a marriage and family therapist who works with individuals, couples and families from a narrative perspective. I believe clients have rich stories to tell about who they are and wish to be, what values they hold, and how to move through their lives in preferred ways. However, sometimes problems get in their way. I believe clients are the experts of their lives and I see people as separate from these problems. I practice from a collaborative, strength-based perspective which is client-centered.

Do you feel exhausted by life and struggle to feel at ease with yourself and your relationships? Maybe it’s nearly impossible for you to relax. Life often feels too difficult and unmanageable. You’re hit with one huge challenge after another. No matter how hard you try, it’s never good enough.

Starting therapy can be intimidating and why it is vital to find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and safe. I view each person or family I work with as individuals and incorporate how relationships and environment impact daily functioning. The priority in treatment is supporting you to increase self-care, self-love, and guide you towards wellness and healing. As a LMFT I have had the opportunity to work with a myriad of mental health needs focusing on anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life stage changes, and the LGBT+ community.

The relationship we have with ourselves sets the bar for all our other relationships, and through our relationships with others, we can heal ourselves if we know how. Together, we’ll develop and use strategies that consider both your strengths and challenges so that you have a real chance of changing the patterns that are no longer serving you. My goal is to walk beside you, and as you point us in a direction, I’ll support you by shining a light on your path. It can feel too hard to take steps when you can’t see what’s ahead- but once you see the terrain clearly, it’s much easier to move through- especially with a trained guide.

You deserve to feel strong, confident, and beautiful- but for many women and teens, anxiety, depression, or trauma can lead to feeling lost, misunderstood, or stuck in negative patterns.

You want to manage stress without feeling completely overwhelmed and find strategies that actually work to reduce sadness and anxiety. If you're looking for some guidance on how to get there, give me a call. My clients find success in learning to trust themselves and make choices they can feel good about.

Imagine a wheel on a vehicle functioning optimally when the wheel is balanced and aligned. Out of balance the ride can be quite bumpy like our lives when increased stress, psychological distress and pain reflect imbalances in our being as we travel chaotically on life's path. Difficult challenges can arise creating obstacles too difficult to navigate alone. Life transitions provide an opportune time to seek support to reevaluate personal goals and direction. My intention is to meet each individual in the moment assisting them to navigate a manageable path on their journey to reach optimum enjoyment and success in life.
