Hello beautiful people. My most treasured skill as a therapist but most importantly as a human is the ability to connect and relate with almost any one no matter your race, gender, culture, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, or age. I am learning in practice and in life that no matter how old, young, accomplished or established we become there will always be a natural human yearning we carry to feel like we belong and that we matter to others.

My clients are typically looking to resolve issues related to anxiety, stress, trauma, insomnia, depression, or relationship issues. Some clients also work on spiritual searching and exploring meaning in life. Sessions can focus on finding one’s purpose. Working with me often involves finding joy and humor again in life. Clients also learn practical skills they take with them, such as meditation and relaxation techniques, and ways of managing the mind’s scattered distractions and critical, negative thoughts. I can also teach physical meditative movements.

When stress and adversity hit the first thing to go is our sense of self and safety. Within that shaken foundation lies our relationships, and they can end up as collateral damage because of unsteady times. Know that these times are unprecedented and losing your path is not unusual given that we’re being called to forge new ones. If you’re finding your mental wellbeing and relational issues are in disarray you are not alone. In fact, now is the time to seek support and support from those who understand the courage it takes to face your challenges and can instill the changes that will most benefit your life.

My clinical approach is based on Solution-Focused Short-Term Therapy. I believe strongly that each client comes to therapy equipped with the inherent strengths and abilities necessary to uncover and implement the steps required to resolve the difficulties facing him or her. I see my role in that process as being one of assisting my client to heighten their awareness of, and access to, those strengths. I help my client become aware of all the possibilities for change and then collaborate with them in the creation of alternative solutions.

You finally feel like you have the main pieces of your life together. The career is going well, and you feel like you are making strides. You have a home that you feel good about and enough money to travel and see the world. But, who to see the world with? You are continually in and out of relationships and you aren't sure if you will ever find "the one". You're sick of the dating scene because it seems that you always end up with the wrong person. And even when you find who you think is "the one", red flags cause you to question what to do. Loneliness may lead to depression and anxiety. And all of this leads to despair.

I understand the importance of needing to feel understood and seen. When therapy is successful, we often will experience a greater sense of spaciousness inside ourselves, freedom from our own judgments, and are reminded that confronting our pain won’t destroy us. The goal is not a short-term fix but instead a long-term shift that brings forth feelings of empowerment, resiliency, and a confidence that our brains and our lives can change. As a consequence of shifting our relationship to ourselves and to our pain, the uncomfortable symptoms often associated with anxiety, trauma, and depression begin to dissolve and loosen their grip.
