The Journey Begins Here... I have found, for my patients and myself, that life is a series of adjustments. Some adjustments are small, smooth and easy, and we may even feel grateful for the new direction on our path. Some of these adjustments are overwhelming. They knock us to our knees, and we feel we may never get up again. Most are somewhere in between.... Whatever challenges bring you to seek counsel, rest assured there is help to adjust and navigate the road ahead.

Are you a burned out parent who is desperately trying to parent the "right" way, but you feel exhausted, defeated, anxious, and depressed? Does your own childhood trauma pop up, threatening to derail you as you navigate parenting? Is it hard to take care of yourself while taking care of everyone else?
Do you wonder how in the world life might get just a little bit easier?
Now more than ever, families are feeling overwhelmed and uncertain.
I believe that pain and shame die when shared and that there is hope for being able to heal.

I’m here to support you through whatever challenges you may be facing. I work with teens and adults to address anxiety, stress management, grief, and trauma. Many of my clients identify as people pleasers and/or high achievers and feel like like they are burning the candle at both ends, trying to meet everyone's needs but their own. Together, we will identify what patterns are no longer serving you while also adding your needs back on your priority list in a way that feels authentic and secure.

When you enter your motherhood experience there are often feelings of uncertainty, guilt, frustration, confusion, anxiety, and sadness. The rollercoaster of emotions is common, but does not have to be your "forever" as a parent. Many of the moms I meet with are searching for a place where they can feel validated, but also want actionable steps they can use to improve their thinking patterns (negative self talk, self doubt, inner critic, intrusive thoughts), and their also manage their feelings about becoming a mom. You deserve to feel better and feel confident as a mom!

Looking for a therapist who is a good fit can be overwhelming but it's an important act of self care taking the time and energy for your mental health to be a priority. This is the first step in a commitment to personal growth. My goal is to give you the space, tools and strategies to support you through that process.

I help couples communicate and reconnect. If you are experiencing fighting, betrayal or 'falling out of love,' I help you build the the relationship you've been craving. I coach you in opening lines of communication, gaining insight into yourselves and achieving the relationship goals you set. I also see individuals who trying to understand themselves because they keep running into the same sorts of relationship problems or they are struggling to achieve the dreams they have for themselves.

Please note: morning & midday availability only .......... Change is not easy. Whether you're needing to experience relief from anxiety, depression, past trauma, or a current difficult situation, counseling can help bring us out of stagnation and onto the path of change in a compassionate and non-judgmental atmosphere. I enjoy helping people identify what thoughts and behaviors are helpful in building satisfying lives and which may have once proved useful, but no longer work for them. Taking small steps, while being kind to ourselves when we make mistakes, can create the kind of change that we want to see in our lives.
