My ideal client is someone who is looking to help change and/or cope with his/her problems/issues. I have worked with a wide variety of issues and treatment modalities. I find that working with anxiety and mood disorders such as depression and bipolar, are best suited to my abilities. I also enjoy teaching others how to raise his/her self-esteem and how to have a more positive outlook on life. Lastly, I really enjoy helping others discover their full potential and teach them how to use that to better themselves.

I work alongside a variety of individuals; specifically, women with: depression and anxiety, challenges with
self esteem
and self worth, issues with stress management, rebuilding after an emotionally abusive relationship, and curiosity about the Intuitive Eating/Health at Every Size movement.
Mental health exists within all of us. At times, we will lean toward mental well-being while other times we experience mental health struggles. Everyone will face mental health struggles at some point in their lives. When we do, it can be incredibly overwhelming and difficult to know how to address. Thankfully, we have therapy for this. Therapy will help you find the disconnect between where you are in your mental health journey and where you want to be.

I have a deep passion to help people within our community overcome adversity, empower them to their core, boost their self-esteem, celebrate their strengths and give them a safe place to express their emotions and feelings. Let me help empower and embody your strengths, giving you hope so you can grow and thrive as an individual.

I whole-heartedly believe in each individual's unique ability to find their true Self, the person they were meant to become. From a centered existence one is better able to make choices that promote health, supportive relationships, and passionate pursuits. At times, one may find what once was easy has become more difficult. One's emotional and perceptual landscape may become unfamiliar, what one allows others to see may not fit with how one really feels, one's path may become less certain. Therapy provides the acceptance and space with which to find oneself, perhaps for the first time.

Feeling isolated, alone, or frustrated due to this current pandemic? Are you stuck in a “rut” with no direction? As humans we sometimes experience these feelings and struggle to move forward. We become anxious, depressed, and lack the skills necessary to put one foot in front of the other, becoming overwhelmed and stressed. The ability to change our mindset and focus on our strengths is a major step in making the change necessary to move ahead in life, one step at a time. Do you envision a happier, healthier version of yourself or loved one? I believe I can help you or someone you love find direction and take that first step.

Self Esteem Therapists
When should a person seek therapy for low self-esteem?
When self-esteem problems begin to disrupt the healthy daily functioning of an individual, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not engaging with friends for fear of being judged, not completing work assignments because they don’t think they’re capable, or not finding romantic love because they don’t feel they’re worthy of it, a therapist may be able to help.
What are the signs of low self-esteem?
Low self-esteem is a common issue that can affect a person's mental and emotional well-being. Some common signs of low self-esteem include negative self-talk, perfectionism, social anxiety, difficulty making decisions, an inability to set boundaries, people-pleasing, and others. A lack of belief in oneself or one’s abilities and a feeling of not being worthy or deserving underlie most of these characteristics.
What causes low self-esteem?
Feelings of low self-worth can begin in childhood or adulthood. Being raised by a highly critical parent or growing up feeling constant disapproval can stay with a person well into adulthood. Specific issues in adulthood may also be a cause of low self-esteem. An unhappy relationship, a dysfunctional work or school experience can impact a person’s feelings of self-worth.
How can therapy improve self-esteem?
Therapists can help identify negative thought patterns that keep the client stuck in a loop of destructive self-talk and develop coping skills to change the voice in their head. A therapist can help with goal-setting, so that clients are better able to stay on task and build confidence from successfully completing work they’re proud of. Coaching a client on how to better communicate can improve relationships. These skills can result in someone with low self-esteem feeling empowered and living with less fear.
