Many people come to me concerned that therapy cannot work for them. They feel hopeless, or discouraged, or worried that they are beyond help. In fact, some have had previous therapy experiences that have reinforced these fears. If that is your experience, don't give up hope. We will work together to create a treatment plan tailored to address your individual needs. I am an active and engaged therapist, which means I will not sit back and quietly smoke a pipe while you lie on my office couch. I strive to create a collaborative therapy environment where you are an equal partner in identifying your treatment goals.

Navigating life’s transitions (career, relationships, life stages, etc) is exhausting when you're not at peace. You may function well on the surface, but inside, things are shaky. You likely want to stop just "surviving" and cultivate self-worth that remains stable no matter what changes around you. My clients often struggle with a harsh inner critic, have difficulty setting boundaries, or have lost their sense of self. I see therapy as a partnership where you set the pace. We'll work together to deepen your understanding of your thoughts, feelings, and motivations so that you can move forward in your life with clarity and strength.

We are all born with eyes, but learn how to see. Our self and worldview are shaped and molded by traumatic experiences, intimate relationships, and occurrences in the greater world around us. Our culture teaches us to conform for love and acceptance, to change our bodies and beliefs to fit the status quo, and to value working over living. Through the process of therapy, I will collaborate with you to uncover your wisest, most authentic Self and harness your strengths ultimately to learn how to navigate life’s ebbs and flows connected to your values, needs, and desires.

My approach to therapy involves exploring your needs, wants, strengths, and values in a supportive and safe environment where you can let down your guard. My work with people starting and changing careers, exploring their gender and/or sexual identities, warfighters with brain injuries, first responders, those facing health and caregiving demands, and creative writers has given me a broad view of challenges that can arise. I help people who feel stuck build on their existing skills to get past barriers and focus on a more fulfilling, uplifting future.

My patients often feel like they've tried everything and still haven’t found relief. That takes a toll. My specialty as a health psychologist focuses on chronic pain management, helping people manage the severity of their pain along with the frustration, sadness, exhaustion, and grief that come along with chronic pain. When it comes to managing pain, having a therapist who specializes in pain matters.

In these unsettling times, it can be all too easy to revert to the comfort of the familiar. But before you act reflexively, ask yourself whether you can imagine acting reflectively and with intention. Our work together will encourage you to examine your automatic beliefs and default settings and question whether old patterns are serving you well. Experimenting with fresh approaches to challenging situations often leads to surprising new outcomes and allows you to reshape the narrative you carry about yourself, which in turn may shift your relationships with others.
