I specialize in working with adults, young adults, college students, and parents/caregivers who want to feel less anxious, less overwhelmed, and more present in their lives. Many of my clients are facing major life transitions, feeling held back by old patterns, or wanting to explore different parts of themselves. And many of the parents I work with are struggling to be the parents they can or want to be. Together, we'll address your struggles with your partner(s), friends, or family members.

I work with clients experientially to feel deeply into their own emotions. I help clients learn to relate to themselves and people in their lives in a healthier, more wholesome way. I work by listening closely and pushing clients know what's going on internally. I tell them what I am feeling and ask clients to be in touch with their bodies and feelings not just their thinking. Ideal clients are open to this collaboration to explore emotions and seek new ways of being.

Welcome. I believe we all have the power within us to get to the healing, healthy growth, and development we need. My particular clinical approach is based in humanistic, relational, and family systems theory, and is focused more on human potential than it is on human pathology. Prior to graduate school, I studied widely in philosophy, theology, art, literature, life sciences, and athletic performance, all of which inform my view of human nature, and human existence. What in your life would you like to be better? In our work together, I utilize the collective wisdom of the healing and growth of others to bear on the present moment.

Life can be challenging when we experience adjustments, trials and loses, causing us to experience loneliness, conflicting emotions, anxiety, depression or simply feeling something is missing in our lives. Therapy can provide a way out by integrating a mind/body/spirit connection to help you return to wellness. It requires great courage taking the first step to reach out. I would be honored if you allow me to walk alongside to unlock your full potential. I strive to follow your lead and adapt to your personal style and needs and together, create a safe and nurturing environment. Hablo nativo Español al 100% y me encantaria servirte!

I will support you in developing insight and understanding into issues that interfere with healing, and help you embrace your authentic self. I welcome you to bring your whole self to therapy (mind, body, spirit). Therapy is not only a place to explore emotional and relational aspects of life, but also a place to integrate all aspects of your self. Honoring the connection between mind and body, cultural heritage, physical health, and spirituality are important in enabling you to live a meaningful and satisfying life. My approach invites complementary therapies, if desired.

I have experience with trauma, sever mental illness and life transitions. I work at my client's pace and follow the road they take in therapy. My approach is to give gentle guidance, educate, and creatively blend a holistic trauma-informed stance, which is the best success for healing. The creative process, through visual art and storytelling, opens up the unconscious mind, cleansing emotional pain while giving a common universal language. I explore with the client many curiosities of the human condition. Helping to connect the behaviors that motivate us to balance our individual strengths and inherit capacity for good social interest.

Have you had a difficult time connecting with others? Do you have a good relationship with yourself? It takes a lot of bravery to seek assistance and support for life's difficult situations - you are not alone. Do you feel that you have a long-standing and complex mental health concern? What about this - are you having a difficult time connecting with your partner? Feeling stuck? These are some of the challenges that I have helped others (like you!) work through. We can problem solve and strategize on how to take your next step.

Human beings do best when in connection with each other. When we are in pain, confusion, fear or sadness, we need support and understanding from others most of all. Yet we all, no matter who we are, experience the trauma of living within oppressive systems such as racism, sexism, weightism or homophobia. This trauma disconnects us from each other and from ourselves, and contributes to our personal pain. My hope is to support you in your personal journey of recovery and to move together with you in developing increased ease, resiliency and capacity for social change.

Connection. It's what heals us. Connection to self, loved ones, community, nature, art, purpose- it's the main ingredient for a life worth living. But this world is messy, and our lives can look like anything BUT connection for weeks, months, years... how long has it been? There are so many ways to end up here: stressful or traumatic experiences, an "othered" identity (think LGBT, race, spirituality, etc.), parenting children with high needs, or stigmas around a mental health condition. That feeling of disconnection can touch every thought, feeling, and dream that you have. But here's the good news: This is where our story begins.

I believe making active focused choices about how to cope with problems and reach your goals pays dividends. Some clients come to therapy to better make peace with their past so as not to continue old patterns. Others are seeking relief from stress and anxiety that the modern world seems to breed. Yet others are working on improving important relationships. Many clients are looking for answers to meaning and purpose that they have not yet resolved in their day-to-day life. What is it that you most want to work on?

I am a psychotherapist and Mindful Self-Compassion Trained Teacher and am certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy). I integrate mindfulness skills and a variety of clinical modalities, including sensorimotor therapy, into my work with all clients. I love helping people realize that they have the capacity to shift their stories - to become skilled at managing the pathways that lead to suffering.

We often create a story about our lives that is untrue or unkind. We become bound by shame, guilt or negative self-perceptions. These views shape how we show up in the world and dictate what we feel we deserve and what we can achieve. Four principles of my therapeutic practice include: addressing shame, challenging negative core beliefs, building self-awareness and creating self-efficacy.

Counseling is the place to face your deepest hurts, most pressing concerns, and past wounds. It's a place where healing, restoration, transformation, and victory can be found. A place where strategy, planning, and movement set the stage for growth and change. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate, and nurturing environment where you can tackle your toughest troubles, whatever they might be. My role as your counselor is to partner with you on your journey, helping you realize your full, God-given potential.
