Clients seeing me benefit from developing insight into their strengths, a fostering (or improvement) of personal accountability, and nuanced treatment specific to each person. I offer nonjudgmental support to others with a variety of concerns and I integrate humor, empathy, and openness into each of my sessions. Clients can also expect knowledge of neurobiological functioning, family systems awareness, and a trauma informed lens to be integrated throughout my practice.

Are you struggling with mental health concerns, relationship issues, or substance use/addiction? Whether you are seeking therapy for yourself, your family, or a coupled partnership, I use a person-centered approach and empathetic understanding to walk with you through the difficulty. An important aspect of my approach to change is motivational interviewing, which explores what your desired life might look like if things were different. Together, we set goals and develop strategies to get you there.

Often, a deep sense that something is missing brings us to therapy—something we long for, even if we can’t name it. I invite you to trust that feeling and take the brave step of reaching out.
My therapeutic approach is built upon these core beliefs:
1) Healing takes place in the context of safe, caring relationships.
2) Growth arises through vulnerability and self-reflection.
3) Real change involves both letting go and choosing what truly matters to you.

Are you or a loved one thinking about making a change to your drinking or substance use? I can help. Some of my clients have been in and out of rehab many times and were looking for an alternative-someone with deep expertise who can provide a new way of looking at their problem and identify a pathway out of their suffering. Still other clients came to me because they did not feel that they needed something as intensive as rehab and wanted to work on their substance use while still taking care of their career, family, home and other obligations. I would be honored to be of assistance.

I look forward to working with clients to collaborate and support changes they're wanting to make. I have been able to treat individuals with challenging symptoms who may not have been properly diagnosed and subsequently, have not received appropriate treatment. Many of my clients have never learned how to cope with intrusive and sometimes disturbing thoughts. The therapy I provide empowers clients with the skills needed to feel in control of their anxiety, impulsiveness and unhealthy habits. My clients will learn how to manage unwanted thoughts and to abandon coping through rituals, escape and avoidance behaviors.

After experiencing a devastating series of personal, relational, occupational, family, social, and spiritual obstacles in my life, my self-talk was often self-defeating. I was discontent, lacking purposeful meaningful contact with others, and felt empty inside instead of accepting my reality and the changing interactions between the environment, others, and myself I was caught between staying the same or recognizing and embracing change. Whether you are in a time of transition or a time of pain, I believe we all have the tools we need to walk toward a loving and meaningful life.

I love working with folks who are feeling stuck, struggling in relationships, feeling hurt or let down by others. Many of us have been impacted by generations of unaddressed mental health, addictions, abuse, poverty, or other struggles. The state of the world can be completely overwhelming. There is so much that can be done in therapy to reduce the grip of those experiences. We can work together so you can feel more content with yourself, and better able to manage the challenges that come with living in the world today.
