Welcome! It takes an immense amount of courage to seek out therapy. When we experience trauma or hardship, our nervous systems have to figure out how to survive. Sometimes that adaptation may look like people-pleasing, restlessness, dissociation, anxiety, over-functioning, or depression (to name a few). Therapy involves identifying your learned responses that may have helped you survive, but are no longer serving you in your present life. We will work to sit alongside those unwanted patterns and make space for new ones that better serve where you want to be.

Are you feeling the pressure to settle down and start a family, but you aren’t sure that is what you want for your life? Are you looking to heal from past sexual trauma while also developing the insight and skills to create lasting intimate relationships? Are you someone who appears to have it all figured out on the outside but on the inside you are dealing with nagging self-doubt, anxious thoughts, and questions about the future? This work can and will be challenging and vulnerable, but it will also be full of curiosity, courage, and growth.

It's hard to face all of life's challenges alone. Maybe you feel like there is no one you can talk to, or no one who would understand what you are going through. Maybe you’ve been dealing with this for a few weeks, or maybe it’s been years of struggle. Whatever your circumstances may be, I’m glad you are reaching out. I’m happy to help you. I truly believe that YOU can be your own superhero, and I can help you discover how to empower yourself.

Are you struggling to find meaningful relationships or just tired of feeling disappointed by others? Maybe your needs are not being met professionally, emotionally, or intellectually? We will explore why you’re stuck, understand the patterns, and create a plan to help you achieve your goals. By first developing insight into behavior and relationship patterns, we can create strategies to resolve those conflicts. Later, learn ways to tolerate pain, move forward in the fear, and feel ready to take action in those steps. You will learn to tolerate anxiety, heal past trauma, improve the connection with yourself, and feel understood.

I believe that therapy allows an individual to take needed time to stop and focus on themselves. Whether it be past traumas, health issues, anxiety, adjustment to life's events, we all need the chance to process our feelings in a safe environment. Therapy begins where you want to start.

Everyone deserves the opportunity to be the best version of themselves and sometimes we need support getting there. I am here to offer that support, however that may look for you. Therapy can be a transformative process that offers a number of possibilities. I believe everyone is unique and therapy is not a "one size fits all". Whether you are new to therapy looking to deal with life’s daily stress, looking for personal growth, or in need of some healing, we will work together as a team to make therapy right for you. I find joy in offering both a safe space and supportive ear to those looking and open to enlightenment and change.

There is only one relationship we are guaranteed to have for our entire lives — and that is our relationship to ourselves. I aim to help you make it compassionate and giving, self expressing, and with appropriate boundaries as needed for you to protect your most authentic Self. I believe that all of our behaviors are adaptive; some we’ve just outgrown and they are no longer serving the best interests of our well-being. But they come from an honest place of having to adapt to circumstances which we did not create.
