A clouded, anxious mind, a broken heart, a body that won’t quiet down. You have tried things and made progress, but you are still waiting for life to feel brighter and lighter. Maybe you are a young person under so much pressure, uncertain about the future, or you are someone who has endured so many hard things. Maybe you are just tired of feeling so much, or not feeling anything at all. You are wondering if a new path is possible. It is.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in the belief that true healing arises when we reconnect with our authentic selves and cultivate a sense of meaning and purpose in our lives. In our work together, I aim to help you navigate the complexities of existence, facilitating a journey toward greater self-awareness and deeper capacity for connection with yourself, with others, and with life. Therapy is a process not just for addressing psychological challenges, but also for exploring personal experiences more deeply. It’s a collaborative effort to clarify values, understand beliefs, and explore aspects of meaning, identity, and connection.

You don't have to navigate this alone. I specialize in helping individuals who have experienced domestic violence rebuild trust, regain autonomy, and rediscover their voice. Whether you're processing past trauma or untangling present dynamics, I provide a warm, empowering space where healing becomes possible. In addition to trauma-focused work, I’m passionate about supporting college students and emerging adults who feel stuck, anxious, or uncertain about who they are becoming. College is a time of profound change—and often, confusion.

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Whether you are struggling with feelings of low self-esteem and self-blame or overwhelm and worry, it is painful to be stuck in a never-ending loop of negativity and uncertainty. These beliefs impact all aspect of our lives from our relationships with our loved ones and friends to our careers and education. Often, we get stuck continuing the same patterns because we don’t know what else to do and we can feel at a loss. The good news is, you have already taken the first step in changing the cycle just by being here and for that, I congratulate you!

There are many powerful tools available to help individuals, couples, and families achieve meaningful, positive change in their lives. As a psychologist in clinical practice for over 30 years, I am vitally engaged in the process of integrating a broad range of therapeutic practices to meet the unique needs of each client. Effective psychotherapy can be of great assistance in negotiating the complexities of modern human existence. Engaging mind, heart, and intuition, it is a process that may become an "adventure of the Soul" imparting profound benefit beyond the alleviation of symptoms.
