They need a safe, nonjudgmental space to be heard and understood. Their goal is to gain clarity, build coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and feel more confident navigating life. They want therapy because they’re ready for change and a healthier perspective.

You may feel like you have lost yourself in the twist and turns of life, but you can talk about it, and together, we can find solutions for change.

Being a therapist motivates and give me purpose. Everyone experience life changes, but not everyone is prepared to manage the emotional, physical, social or financial changes that come with life changes. Feelings emotionally overwhelmed can affect the ability to make rational decisions. The inability to make rational decisions disrupts connection with self, reality, family and friends. As a Licensed Clinical social worker I am licensed to diagnose and treat. You are not alone and should never feel you are. I practice in an outpatient setting. My passion is helping patients move from a place of despair to optimism.

Many of us live our lives balancing one life event after another. All is well until that ONE MORE THING happens! Some people lash out on others or suddenly experience an overwhelming flood of emotions. Others lose interest in activities or have a change in their sleeping or eating habits. Coping with stress, relationship issues, and other life events may cause depression, anxiety, or other emotional responses. Many of my clients have been able to find better ways to cope with their "series of unfortunate events." Empowering clients to find positive strategies to COUNT IT ALL JOY again is at the heart of what I do.

Could your Child Benefit from Play Therapy? Children are not tiny adults. Nervousness, frustration, and anxiety feel strange and scary to a small person who has very little experience dealing with big feelings. Play therapy is a treatment that helps children who are experiencing social, emotional, behavioral, and relationship disorders to express their emotions, improve their communication abilities, and learn to solve problems. This kind of therapy respects a child’s unique developmental level and looks for ways of helping by observing and interacting with how they play, which is the natural expressive “language” of children.

Motherhood is hard. Striving to get it right, the sleepless nights, and just trying to survive the day can leave you feeling overwhelmed. It is hard to make time to breathe let alone deal with what you have going on internally. You need a space where you can process your experience without shame or judgement. A space to feel known and where your story can be heard. Whether you are you trying to have a baby, just brought your baby home, or in the trenches, there is a space for you.

If you are reading this it is evident you are searching for solutions to life issues and challenges. As a therapist my primary goal is to provide clients with a safe and judgement free space where they feel free to express needs, desires, and concerns. I work closely with all clients to assist them in gaining the personal insight and self-awareness necessary to identify thought patterns, behavior patterns, and relationship patterns that consistently create difficulty and make change appear impossible.

People do not come one size fits all, but one thing that can meet the needs of many is empathy. The ability to sit with another person in their pain, confusion, or fear is powerful. My goal with clients is always to meet them where they are and be present with them as they navigate life's ups and downs.

Sometimes we find ourselves facing difficulties that we alone cannot comprehend, manage, or sustain. Perhaps these are the reasons you are seeking out therapy. I enjoy walking alongside clients who are seeking a change. Sometimes the changes are little tweaks while others are a completely new way of living. Often, we have the skills necessary to live the lives we want to live: other times we need to learn ways of coping that are no longer functioning. I would be honored help you work towards the person you’re proud of and have always wanted to become.
